    Company Timeline

    Notable benchmarks in our company’s history

    1989

    Window Specialist is founded as an installation-only company providing labor to general contractors for window installations on school projects. These projects are supplemented with residential sales and installations of windows and doors.

    1995

    Window Specialist is officially incorporated in New York State, and moves its operations to a new 4-acre property at 188 Erie Street, Lancaster, NY. At this point, Window Specialist begins supplying large multi-family real estate developers with windows and installations throughout New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, Illinois and Michigan.

    1998

    A 42' x 60' building addition is completed, expanding Window Specialist's fabrication capabilities to include aluminum storefront and curtain wall assemblies.
