Who are the major service providers (ie: providers who either install or manufacture/install or a distributor of national manufactuerer/intaller) of the retractable screen door and window industry in Alabama?
Hello! Thank you for your request for a list of Alabama’s major service providers in the retractable screen door and window industry. The short answer is that Wilson Screen Solutions, Modern Millwork Company, and Custom Screen & Window are major providers in Alabama that specialize in retractable screen door and window services. The Glass Guru, Window World, Pella Windows and Doors, Dixie Windows, Birmingham Screen Construction, Champion Window, and BLT Home Improvement are major players in Alabama’s screen door and window industry in general. We’ve organized all business details in an attached spreadsheet for your convenience, but please find an explanation of our methodology and findings below.
METHODOLOGY
We began by familiarizing ourselves with Alabama’s population and major cities. We then searched trusted media sites, industry reports, and user forums to put together a list of the major service providers in the retractable screen door and window industry across the state of Alabama. To qualify as a major leader, the company needed to have a strong internet presence, a website, and a Yelp page.
We found three companies that provide retractable screen door and window services specifically. We then expanded our search to include screen doors and windows in general and were able to add seven additional companies to our list. We included each company’s name, website, address, phone number, and a link to its Yelp listing in the attached spreadsheet. Please note that while all companies listed have an official Yelp page, not all of them have Yelp reviews.
FINDINGS
We included all company details in the “Business Listings” tab of the attached spreadsheet. We included the background research conducted on Alabama’s population and major cities in the “Large AL Cities” tab. The largest markets in Alabama are Birmingham, Montgomery, Huntsville, Mobile, Tuscaloosa, Hoover, Dothan, Auburn, and Decatur. These cities combined make up just under 25% of Alabama’s total population.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
YellowPages.com lists two other businesses as leaders in Alabama’s retractable screen window and door industry: Genius Retractable Screens in Northport and Quality Screens in Tuscaloosa. We did not include these businesses in our list because we were unable to find either a Yelp page or a professional website to confirm legitimacy.
