American Openings
About American Openings: We manufacture and install energy-efficient windows and doors for the building trade. All American Openings products are specially designed to combat the harsh desert climate of Tucson and Southern Arizona. American Openings is a family-owned, 3rd generation Tucson business, started in 1992.

We manufacture these top-quality replacement windows and doors right here in Tucson with 100% USA-made parts. American Openings customers can skip the middle-man and get custom-built windows and doors at prices much lower than our competitors. American Openings windows are constructed of Low-E, double-pane glass, an argon gas insulating layer, Envirosealed WindowsTM spacing materials, and your choice of vinyl or aluminum frames.

American Openings also sells fiberglass exterior or patio doors, which are more energy efficient and durable than wood. We also build sliding patio doors with either aluminum or vinyl frames. American Openings windows can be installed by our installation teams: commercial window and door installation experts who are all American Openings, employees.
Services
American Openings history began as a family-owned, Tucson, Arizona business founded in 1992 as a direct-to-builder manufacturer of replacement windows and doors to the local trades. This was a significant change to the local door and window market as Tucson builders could now save money by purchasing directly from a local manufacturer instead of from a larger distribution center.
Because American Openings builds and installs the products we sell, we promise to stand behind all of our replacement windows and doors. No kidding. And since we have been doing business here in Tucson since 1992, you can rest easy that we will be here to live up to that promise.
We manufacture and install our own brand of energy-efficient windows and doors, designed specifically for the extreme desert environment. We also offer our own trademarked brand of shatterproof STC/security windows: AMERISECURE by American Openings. All American Openings products are manufactured at our factory in Tucson, Arizona.
All Vinyl Windows by American Openings, described and pictured below, have been Energy Star certified and designed to keep you comfortable in the extreme desert heat. All American Openings vinyl windows and patio doors are manufactured at our factory in Tucson, Arizona. Pictured in White. Also available in Tan.
American Openings windows have been certified by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) who provides an independent assessment of the "whole product" energy efficiency rating of the windows that we build. The most recent NFRC ratings for each of our window products appears in the table below.

Not even worth 1 Star! My builder used these windows and 11 years later just about every window in this home leaks every time it rains. Now we have major damage and we are finding out the windows are low grade contractors windows made by American Openings! What a joke!

Stay away from these guys. Dr Horton built our home using their windows and twelve years later 17 of our windows need to be replaced before we can sell the home. The rubber separator between the panes has bulged out and looks terrrible. They stated the defect was only covered for 2 years, so no help there, but they offered to charge us $75 to send someone out to measure for new windows!They appear to be building a subpar product, so not sure why they think I would buy more of them.

Nothing but good things to say about American Openings. Wife and I live in a 60 year old adobe house that leaks air like nothing else. We called AO to get a quote. The cool thing was they let us do one window at a time and haven't changed their rates in 2 years as we do them one by one. We initially did our bathroom window 2 years ago and didnt do anything until a few weeks ago..now we are doing one each month until we are done.
Pricing is great and since they are aluminum, not vinyl, I don't have to worry about cracking or warping.
Lead time is 2 weeks like another reviewer said.
Install is

Nothing to complain about, they did the job well and for a good price. If you live in Arizona, Tucson in particular, give these guys a call and have them put in a bid on your project, you'll probably like it.
Initial bid/sales process was pretty standard, their guy came out, measured the window and offered options. They can do pretty much whatever you want since they build all windows to spec, but are good at listening to what you are actually after and offering that. In my case, something very good at blocking heat and noise.
Their bid was much cheaper than other vendors. They were about 70

Great price. Installers came on the agreed date and completed all the work in one day. The were courteous and did an excellent job. The windows look great and made a noticeable difference keeping out the heat.
