About Milgard
Milgard Windows & Doors is a manufacturer of residential windows and doors headquartered in Tacoma, Washington. Founded in 1958 as a glass company in the Pacific Northwest by brothers Gary and Jim Milgard, the company has grown into a major fenestration manufacturer over 65+ years. Milgard was acquired by MI Windows and Doors in 2019, which operates under MITER Brands.
Milgard manufactures a comprehensive range of energy-efficient windows and doors designed for residential applications. The company produces windows and sliding glass doors in various materials and styles, with many models earning ENERGY STAR certification. Milgard's 3D MAX Energy Package simplifies the process for homeowners to meet federal energy tax credit requirements.
Many Milgard windows and doors qualify for federal tax credits under the 25C program when they meet ENERGY STAR's Most Efficient (ME) designation. Homeowners installing qualifying Milgard products can claim 30% of the cost with a maximum annual credit of $600 for windows and skylights.
