FULL LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR AS LONG AS YOU OWN AND RESIDE IN YOUR HOME
(On Milgard Products Installed in the United States after 04/01/2007)
Full Lifetime Warranty For as Long as You Own and Reside in Your Home
Milgard Manufacturing Incorporated ("Milgard") guarantees to the original consumer purchaser ("Original Purchaser") of
Milgard windows, doors* or skylights (hereafter referred to as "Products") installed in a single family home or a multi-
family home unit ("Home") by the builder as new construction or by the Original Purchaser as replacements, that Milgard
will repair or replace any such Milgard Products** that are defective in materials or workmanship and will pay the costs of
all parts and labor. If repair is not commercially practical or cannot timely be made, then Milgard will, at the Original
Purchaser's option, either replace any defective Milgard Products or refund the purchase price.
Persons Covered
This Warranty extends to the Original Purchaser of Milgard Products. The Warranty starts on the date of purchase of
the Home as new construction or the installation of Milgard windows, doors or skylights in the Home as replacements
("Start Date") and remains effective as long as the Original Purchaser owns and resides in the Home. In addition, if the
Original Purchaser sells the Home before ten (10) years has elapsed after the Start Date, Milgard will automatically
extend full coverage under this Warranty to the new owner(s) of the Home and any subsequent owners, until the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the Start Date.
Exclusions from Coverage
This Warranty does not cover damage or defects relating to misuse, abuse, the use of applied tints or films, alterations
including but not limited to customer-applied finishes, normal wear and tear, broken glass***, natural weathering of
exterior finishes, acts of nature (e.g. fire, hurricane, etc.), building settling, structural failures of walls or foundations or
improper installation, storage, or handling or failure to properly care for and maintain the Milgard Products****. Normal
wear, including discoloration, on hardware component finishes is not a defect and is not covered by this Warranty. Loss
of functionality of hardware (except as provided below for stainless steel hardware*****) in highly corrosive environments,
which includes any Home located within two miles of salt water and any Home located in the State of Hawaii, is also
excluded from coverage. This Warranty does not apply to any Milgard Products that are installed in a Home that has a
non-drainable EIFS or DEFS siding product.
Milgard WoodClad™ fiberglass windows and doors may, as an option, be purchased with unfinished wood interior
surfaces that must be finished prior to, or immediately after installation for maximum protection. Unfinished wood
surfaces that experience water damage at the jobsite or are left unfinished after installation and become stained or
damaged will not be considered as defective in materials or workmanship under the terms of this Warranty.
Limitations on Remedies
In no event will Milgard be liable for incidental or consequential damages (other than labor to repair or replace Products,
screens or stainless steel hardware under this Warranty), whether based on breach of express or implied warranty,
breach of contract, negligence, strict liability or any other legal theory. Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
State Remedies
This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights which vary from state to state.

Within Milgard's fiberglass door offerings, only the Ultra™ and WoodClad™ product series are covered by this Full

Milgard will replace any Milgard window or door screen frame and mesh that is defective in materials or workmanship at
no charge to the Original Purchaser (Milgard will pay for parts and labor) for a period of one (1) year after Start Date.
*** TUSCANY™ SERIES COVERAGE FOR GLASS BREAKAGE
For the Tuscany™ series of Milgard Products only, the Full Lifetime Warranty will extend to glass breakage including
tempered glass, unless attributable to acts of nature (e.g. fire, hurricane, etc.), civil disorder, building settling, structural
failures of walls or foundations or improper installation, storage, or handling. Specialty glass (e.g. V-Groove, laminated
glass) is not covered by this glass breakage warranty.
