Wilson adds Valu-Tec™ steel bi-fold line to
aluminum and rolling door product offering

January 18, 2003, Elkhorn, Wis.--Wilson Doors, Inc., the leading manufacturer of aluminum bi-fold and large sliding doors for aviation, marine and commercial applications, announced the addition of the Valu-Tec line of affordable, value-added steel bi-fold doors. The Valu-Tec line complements the existing array of Wilson Door products and effectively creates a one stop shop for all hangar and commercial door needs.

This latest product line addition is an affordable, value-added steel bi-fold door that perfectly complements Wilson's door offering. "We feel very strongly that Wilson's aluminum bi-fold door is the best product available. Because of its durability and longevity, it carries the industry's lowest lifetime ownership cost. However, steel doors have lower acquisition costs. By offering both products, we give Wilson Doors customers increased choice and maximum flexibility," explained Scott Blue, President, Wilson Doors, Inc.

Valu-Tec provides a Wilson Door solution to the cost-conscious hangar door buyer. Unlike competitive steel products, however, Valu-Tec is the only steel bi-fold door to offer as standard features an auto-lock mechanism, three-button control box and upper override mechanical limit switches, and at price that you wouldn't think possible.

Together with Wilson's quality craftsmanship and unparalleled customer support, Valu-Tec's standard product features provide the most benefit of any steel bi-fold product on the market. "Rather than treating it as a commodity, Wilson has approached the steel bi-fold door differently, offering a competitively priced made-to-order product with unique features and the same attention to detail and care you'd expect from a Wilson product," noted Blue.

Founded in 1956, Wilson specializes in the design and construction of lightweight aluminum and economical steel vertical bi-fold doors, as well as large exterior sliding doors. The doors are used in a variety of scenarios including industrial, commercial, agricultural, aviation and marine applications. Known for their high quality and durability, Wilson has thousands of installations nationwide and internationally, and manufactures each door to order. Wilson works closely with the end-user, contractor and architect to manufacture every door to the exact specifications of the customer.
