      Luxbaum Windows + Doors announced today that its Impact Resistant Folding Door System won the “Most Innovative Door – Small/Medium Manufacturer” Crystal Achievement Award.  The annual awards from Window & Door honor outstanding achievements in window and door product technology, manufacturing and marketing.  John Swanson, editor/associate publisher of Window & Door stated, "The weak economy has created tremendous challenges in the window and door market. Our Crystal Achievement Award winners are a testament to the strength and vitality of our industry." "We also see some new faces in the Crystal Achievement class of 2009," notes Christina Lewellen, senior editor and coordinator of the awards program. "This year's winners certainly rise above the status quo."

	Laszlo Wagner, Luxbaum’s President, commented, “We are honored and excited to win this prestigious award.  Our Folding Door System is a significant expansion of our product line.  We can create wood door systems that range from 3 to 16 door panels, with a maximum height of over 10 feet and a maximum width of over 48 feet, all while passing Miami Dade County’s impact and water resistance tests.  This truly innovative wood folding door system functions without surface mounted bolts, and opens with the simple turning of a handle.”
	Jason Love, Luxbaum’s Vice President, added, “As with all of our products, the folding door system is made from merbau wood and incorporates our multi-point locking system, European style overlay sash and is architecturally coordinated with the rest of our doors and windows.”
