Andersen Broadens 100 and 400 Series Options to Win Builders and Remodelers

What happened

On November 6, 2026, Andersen Windows announced a set of product enhancements across its 400 Series and 100 Series window and door lines, plus its patio door and accessory offerings. Updates include wider nationwide availability of triple-pane glass and new triple-pane options for double-hung, picture and transom windows, black interior and exterior colors for patio doors, factory-applied interior wood trim, contemporary grille profiles, a custom radius option for 100 Series arch windows, and a black sill for 100 Series gliding patio doors.

The company frames the expansion around builder and homeowner demand for personalization, design consistency, energy efficiency and easier installation, citing Houzz data that 54% of homeowners renovated in the past year and Zillow research that 35% of new construction buyers wanted a home they could customize. The announcement was led by Jessica Ehrlichmann, vice president and general manager of the windows and doors business units, and the changes span remodeling, replacement and new construction channels, which means messaging has to reach both trade professionals and consumers.
