Zen Windows™ was founded by Daniel Wolt in 1998. After spending more than a decade in the window industry, Mr. Wolt found that it had become a broken model and he set out to reverse that by opening a company that would treat its clients like family.
His first step was to align himself with only the best window manufacturers with impeccable reputations and solid, time-tested products. From there he hired only the best people in the trade, from customer care concierges to expert window technicians. He then created a company culture in which every employee was trained to adopt a “customer comes first” ethos.
Realizing that most customers had encountered previous dealings with contractors who did not meet their expectations, Mr. Wolt implemented a NO MONEY DOWN policy, ensuring his clients total satisfaction upon completion of their project before any money was to be paid to Zen Windows™.
The new model was a smash success. In its first few years, Zen Windows™ was praised by The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and countless other publications.
In 2011, Zen Windows™ was given the “Best of Columbus Award” in the Window Installation Contractors category by the U.S. Commerce Association. This prestigious award recognized Zen for the company’s ethics, customer service, and overall customer/employee satisfaction. The following year, Zen Windows™ was named a “2012 Remodeling Magazine BIG 50 Award Winner” for its remarkable industry impact. Zen Windows™ was the only window company, selected out of 685,000 contractors nationally, to be so recognized.
Zen Windows™ and its growing list of independent owners service many major markets around the United States. Even with the rapid advancement of technology since Zen’s inception, one thing has never changed: all clients deal directly with the owner throughout the entire process.

Single HungSingle-hung windows are a beautiful, practical style that incorporates two sashes, one fixed and one that slides up and down.
Stationery sash
AwningAn awning window has a hinge on top and opens outward, allowing air to flow up and into the building while keeping out any rain that might fall.
Double HungThe most popular style on the market, double-hung windows feature two operating sashes and provide both beauty and performance.
SliderSliding windows are similar to double hungs, but they operate horizontally to provide a wider, more unobstructed view.
CasementCasement windows, which open out to the side, are one of the most thermally efficient window styles offered.
Bow/BayThe three-dimensional effects of a bow or bay window will add space, light and viewing area to any home.
