Certainteed Windows
Does anybody else us Certainteed windows? 95% of the windows we install are them and we bought them through ABC Supply. The problem is our local ABC isn't going to distribute Certainteed windows anymore. Does anybody know of any other distributors around NY/CT/NJ that distribute them?

Same here we use about 95% Certainteed windows.They are made by
Mi windows on the east coast. I get them at Universal Supply, they have locations all around New Jersey, not sure of other states.

It's because the viking plant in Connecticut that has been making the certainteed window for this region, closed up shop this week. Thats why ABC has been pushing simonton and atrium really hard the last few months
