storefront and curtain wall business.  We are proud of this new
association and are especially pleased that Tom Harris, executive vice-president of the predecessor company, will join us as president of the
new company.  Tom has over 20 years experience leading major storefront

brand, and will be integral in the further development of a
comprehensive architectural hardware program.”

Aluminum, as well as many of their former employees, to re-establish
relationships. We wish to assure those U.S. Aluminum clients who have

orders and expedite their completion and delivery. We’re confident that
we can restore the U.S. Aluminum brand to its former luster. We also
appreciate the support and encouragement we have received from many C.R.
