A. INTRODUCTION AND METHODOLOGY Ducker Research Company (DRC) has been conducting the study of the U.S.
residential and nonresidential window and door markets for WDMA (Window & Door Manufacturers Association) in combination with AAMA (American Architectural Manufacturers Association) since October 1994. This study details market volumes and trends in the U.S. for 2005, forecasted through 2009.
Ducker Research has been conducting residential and nonresidential market
studies continuously since 1982 for AAMA. Prior to that, studies were conducted for the Sealed Insulating Glass Manufacturers Association (SIGMA) since 1978. This association is now called the Insulating Glass Manufacturers Association (IGMA) Additionally, our database goes back to 1972 when we first developed a demand model for flat glass usage in the United States. Ducker further produces many syndicated and custom market research studies for the fenestration market annually. These include the annual studies of the North American Flat Glass Market and bi-annual study of the Northern American Fabricated Glass Market.
This following report is the result of a combined market study and a database
analysis funded by AAMA and WDMA in a cooperative effort. The intent in combining these studies is to develop a full database and a comprehensive report on the window and door market. The database is designed to be utilized for studies into the foreseeable future.
1. Methodology The role of Ducker Research is to combine primary and secondary market research efforts with its own body of knowledge to profile and track residential and nonresidential fenestration market volume. As a major input to the research, Ducker receives confidential disclosures from AAMA and WDMA members and non-members. However, multiple industry sources, such as demand models, raw material and component suppliers, and internal databases, are necessary and consistently used to triangulate market statistics. Public databases are also utilized, such as the U.S. Bureau of Census and other statistics sources.
2
In addition, Ducker interviewed several hundred home builders, contractors, installers and distributors, which helped develop indicative product usage factors and channel flow as a cross reference to manufacturers’ sales figures. Please note that there have been several important revisions to data from 2003 due to new and improved data received at both national and local levels. Current numbers reflect the adjustment and all historical numbers have been restated accordingly. The overall participation from manufacturers in general was significantly higher for the latest study, and this coupled with additional insight gained from related Ducker work over the past 2 years has provided better insight into the following areas:
• Residential windows: The wood window market in particular was found to have been overstated for several years, with both vinyl and aluminum conversely understated.
• Patio doors: Similar to residential windows, the wood patio door market was found to have been overstated.
• Skylights: The total market was found to be overstated previously and has been revised down.
• Distribution: While the numbers were not restated as such, we eliminated a distributor category, Wholesale Retailers, and reallocated this volume primarily to lumberyards, but also somewhat to specialty retailers. This was done partly to simplify and to better align with the definitions used by most manufacturers, and partly because trends in the market were leading to the blurring of lines between wholesale retailers and other categories .
The following report represents our research and analytical efforts beginning in the Fall of 2005. 2. Purpose
The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive single report detailing the window and door market for WDMA and AAMA.
3. Methodology and Time Line Study findings are based upon disclosures from window and door manufacturers, secondary data and our experience in providing this information for several years. Study findings are segmented by geographic region as illustrated in Appendix A to this report. The research program for the WDMA and AAMA spans from September 2005 through April 2006. A detailed timeline is provided, below, as Exhibit A.1.

4. Terminology Certain terms are used throughout the report which require definition. Also, in our analysis, assumptions are made regarding units and construction activity. The following is a list of definitions and assumptions used in the development of this report. Bifold Door: An interior application utilizing two or more individual door leafs, conjoined with hinges, which operate on a sliding track. A bifold door is primarily a form of a closet door. However, bifold doors do not include folding doors or overlapping sliding doors. Bifold door volume counted on a per leaf basis. Included in interior door volume. Closet Doors: An interior door used for passage from room or hallway to closet. Included in interior door volume. Doors: Units are defined as actual door slabs and panels, rather than openings where one or more slabs would be used. Excluded from door units are closet doors, bifold doors and service and industrial doors.

Entry Doors: A door opening that allows passage from the exterior of a building or home to the interior. In the residential market, hinged rear entrance doors connecting an attached garage to a home are included, while patio doors are excluded and reported separately. In the nonresidential market, entry doors include vestibule doors. Flush Door Construction: A method of door construction whereby a thin face material is attached to a light internal frame (often made of wood). Face material may include high density fiberboard, steel, wood veneer, MDO, or other products. Framing: Metal, wood, fiberglass, vinyl, or composite members comprising the window. In operable windows, framing members include both a operational portion and fixed portion of the window. Insulating Glass: Two- or three-lite, sealed. Distinct from two-lites, not sealed and distinct from storm windows. Interior Door: Includes both Passageway and Closet doors. Nonresidential: Nonresidential construction is defined as all commercial buildings, from small to large, that are not meant for residence. Hotels, motels, and dormitories are included in nonresidential figures. Patio Doors: Units are defined as openings at the manufacturer level, to avoid double counting units due to multiple operable, or inoperable panels. For example, a double French door and a triple panel sliding door are all considered one unit. Figures in this report identify units with single panels and multiple panels alike as one singular unit. Further segmentation by number of panels in detailed in the Patio Door section of this report. Passageway Doors: An interior door used for passage from room or hallway to room. Excluded from this are garage hinged and service doors. Residential: Residential construction is defined as dwelling units: single-family attached, single-family detached, multi-family and mobile homes. Apartment buildings, although considered commercial construction, are included in our residential figures. Stile and Rail Door Construction: A traditional method of construction for wood doors whereby the structural components are
5
exposed. Structural components include wood stiles (vertical beams) and rails (horizontal beams), which encompass wood panels. Stiles and rails are held together using glue and dowel pins, while panels often “float” within channels grooved into the stile and rail components. Skylights: Standardized unit specified by product. Not included in window volumes. Sloped Glazing: Nonstandard specification, also called custom skylights or monumental glazing. This product is captured in curtainwall data, but not segmented out. Does not include sunrooms, which are a separate category. Study Regions: Eleven geographic regions are used throughout the report. Appendix A to this report illustrates the definition of these regions. Sunrooms: Separate classification from sloped glazing. Not included in window volumes. Vision Glass Area: Unless otherwise noted, glass area figures are surface measure of vision glass area. Figures for spandrel glass materials also are surface measured. Windows: Units are defined as openings at the manufacturer level. However, the definition of a unit differs among manufacturers (e.g., a bay window to some may be three openings while to others it may be one). This does not account for multiple windows that are nailed together at the distributor level for one opening. Figures in this report more closely reflect units at the manufacturer level, rather than openings at the job site.
