Vinyl and Composite Windows and Doors
For new construction and retrofit projects, AMSCO offers the Studio Series Contemporary Style sliding patio door with the essential features and options customers require but with the same quality engineering design and performance of the Artisan Series Contemporary Style.
Grid options for Studio and Artisan doors
Traditionally, windows have used grids to add architectural interest to the outside of the home and create light-play throughout the interior. Now you can achieve this same dramatic look and intriguing lighting effect by adding grids to your AMSCO sliding patio door.
Over 70 Years of Integrity and Innovation
More than a half-century in the business has taught us a thing or two about making the best vinyl and composite windows and doors you can put in your home. And thanks to a long history of employee ingenuity and adoption of evolving manufacturing technologies, AMSCO Windows® has been able to stay on the cutting edge of the industry without cutting corners. So you can be sure that every window and door that bears the AMSCO name is the product of years of solid consumer and technological research, creative experimentation, and relentless testing.
Evolving Products for an Evolving Customer
No one knows more about windows than AMSCO: styles, color and hardware options, energy efficiency, and much more. But what truly sets us apart from our competition is the value we place on customer feedback. Today's consumer is more informed, and more sophisticated, and demands the latest in innovation and design at a reasonable price. This means that we have to work that much harder to make sure every vinyl window, composite window, new construction window, and door that leaves our facility meets our standards – and our customers.
Environmental Friendliness
We support our community by preserving the environment – one of the core values at AMSCO Windows®. We recycle many of the materials used in the manufacturing of our products and go to great lengths to keep the environment clean for future generations. All scrap generated in our production process is recycled and sent back to our supplier where it is used in other products. Glass is sent to a filter manufacturer and all paper/cardboard products are bailed and sent to a paper mill.
By finding ways to support the community, it's our hope that we touch the lives of those around us.
Made in the USA
We at AMSCO take great pride in our products, which have been engineered to provide value, comfort and piece of mind. We proudly manufacture our products in our facility located in Salt Lake City, Utah. In addition, all major raw material components of our products are also made in the United States of America.

Glass Options
The Perfect Glass for Perfect Comfort
CōzE is perfectly suited to manage your home's comfort level in all climates and temperatures and provides you with a clear, unobstructed view—no hazy or smoky tints. In the summer, heat and ultraviolet radiation are reflected back outside, keeping your house cool and comfortable. In the winter, heat is trapped inside, keeping your home warm. Plus, CōzE helps reduce cooling and heating loads, saving you money in energy bills.
Block Out the Sun and Control the Glare
CōzE Brite is specially designed to handle each region of the solar energy spectrum, blocking ultraviolet radiation, absorbing visible light, and reflecting infrared rays. The result is comfortable interior temperatures while reducing window glare, which can be a problem in regions with lots of sunlight. And if you're worried that using CōzE Brite will create an unseemly, shiny look from the outside, (a common problem with reflective-based glass) you can rest assured that CōzE Brite won't detract from your home's overall appearance.
The Ultimate Balance of Solar Control and High Visibility
Using the right type of glass in your windows makes all the difference. You want your windows to let in light while keeping the sun's harmful solar radiation and heat out—providing the right amount of comfort in your home. Striking that perfect balance between high visibility and energy efficiency has been difficult until now. CōzE HV provides you with the clearest view with the highest energy efficiency of any performance glass and is designed to improve your windows' energy performance. And, by blocking out most of the harmful ultraviolet radiation, it helps protect your carpets, curtains, wall coverings and furniture from fading.
The Artisan Door
The Artisan door by AMSCO Windows® is out top of line vinyl door and a great choice for new construction, retrofit, and remodeling projects.

Unique as you are
Whether you select the French or Contemporary style sliding patio door, there are a variety of options you can choose from to make your patio door unique, including several configurations with sizes up to 16 feet wide and eight feet tall. Or, add a custom grid for a distinctive patio door pattern all your own. Finish it off with hardware details that match or complement your home's existing cabinetry and interior door hardware finishes. And, don't forget about energy efficiency. AMSCO's CōzE performance glass provides significant savings over clear glass and may qualify for ENERGY STAR.

Cleaning and Lubrication
Vacuum dirt and debris from sill and track areas before washing
Clean glass and window or door frame with a mixture of mild dish soap and water. Rinse completely with clean water and wipe dry with a soft cloth to avoid water spots.
Avoid washing glass in direct sunlight.
Never use abrasive or caustic cleaners. They can cause permanent damage to the frame finish or the glass.
Mild, nonabrasive soaps are usually the safest for most dirt and stain removal, but any cleaner you use should be tested in an inconspicuous area first.
Always rinse completely with clear water and wipe dry if possible.
Check to make sure drainage or “weep” holes are always clear of dirt and obstructions – both inside and outside the window or door in the bottom of the frame. Composite windows do not have weep holes. Note: If the window is “stacked,” there may be weep holes between units.
Clean screens by removing them, washing them on a flat, clean surface with mild soap and water and a soft brush. Then rinse, wipe dry and reinstall.
Windows and doors with moving parts include hardware components that should be lubricated periodically. In salt-air environments, these components require monthly lubrication.
After wiping clean, use a silicone spray with a non-petroleum-based propellant on door or sliding window tracks, rollers and locking hardware
