Doors and windows create the tenants' and condo buyers' all-important first impression of your property. So you want to choose products that create visual interest and provide security and functionality. Attractive doors and windows can make a building unique, allowing property managers to command higher rents and creating a sense of pride among community residents. Baby boomers, high-income retirees, and upscale singles alike want easy-to-maintain, wide-open window spaces and entryways that provide fine architectural details.
