Window Software Opens To Doors

Expanding the capabilities of window engineering software has opened significant opportunities for door manufacturers.

Most early users of WTS Paradigm'(formerly known as ProShape) have been window manufacturers, but makers of stile and rail doors, raised panel doors,,and custom specialty doors are among those recently incorporating the technology.

The software is provided as either a'stand-alone program or fully integrated with the WoodWare System business application package.

Advantages of WTS Paradigm for door companies include:

The ability to design architectural doors that are unique from project to project with the ease of a standard product selection.

The ability to select standard patterns that may closely match the desired product. This base design can then be manipulated to match customer requirements for stile width, rail widths, profile type, pattern layout or any other custom attribute required.

The ability to engineer and create a manufacturing cut list that takes into account production methods, tolerances, and manufacturing I imitations.

Weathervane Window Co., Kirkland, Wa., is among the window and door companies using the software.
