Screen doors equipped with Meshtec are de-signed to deliver outstanding durability, standing up to pets and humans for a lifetime of use, all with the added benefits of securing the home against unwanted break-ins, insects and harmful UV rays. High-tensile mesh technology is combined with a multipoint lock-ing system and main patio door interlock to resist common forced-entry tools, so consumers can rest easy with an extra level of protection. www.quanex.com Booth 2141: PDS IG Equipment Bringing Home Thin-Triple PDS announced gen-eral availability for a new Thin-Triple Automation T17 Spacer platform. The new line allows manufacturers to produce thin-triple insulat-ing glass units (IGUs) using a proprietary system and the company’s T17 spacer, to easily and economically fab-ricate made-to-order units that are lighter and thinner than traditional triple-pane IGUs with two spacers. PDS’s T17 spacer system produces high-quality, symmetrical or asymmetrical triple pane units with no additional labor, officials say. Fully automated equipment is compatible with the T17 dual-pane IG production platform, allowing the production of both dual-and triple-pane IGUs on the same line. www.pdsigequipment.com [Learning to Up Your Sales Game] Booth 517: Strybuc Industries All the Right Tools In addition to display-ing products, such as pri-vate-label glass cleaner and a heavy-duty knock-down screen for patio doors, Strybuc will have new tools and displays on hand for caulk guns, and a display for window balances and sash support systems.
