about us
Who We Are
Frugate is a U.S. based supplier of made-to-order windows and doors, built to meet the demands of real projects at competitive prices. Our lean structure eliminates unnecessary overhead — no sales reps, no showroom markups — allowing us to deliver serious value directly to developers without cutting corners on quality.
We supply both residential and commercial builds, from single-unit homes to hundreds of Apartment units. Our 13,000-square-foot warehouse in Maywood, New Jersey serves as the core of our operation, where we manage logistics, handle inspection, and coordinate deliveries with job site schedules.
Every unit we supply is built to spec. Whether you’re building custom homes or large-scale multifamily, storefront, or a high rise building, we focus on one thing: getting you exactly what the project calls for, without delay and without waste.
Your Frugate Advantage
Our windows and doors, built to your specs, timed to your schedule, and priced to protect your margins. We have the ability to hold inventory until you are ready for it.
We don’t carry warehouse inventory or push prefabricated systems — every order is custom-built based on your project’s needs.
Our model is direct. We manufacture, cut out distributors, reps, and showrooms that add markup and slow down communication. That gives you tighter control over finishes, sizing, configurations, and most importantly — timelines.
Lead times are managed from day one. If framing shifts or install gets pushed, we adjust. We don’t disappear once the order is placed — we stay involved until the last unit lands.
We’ve supplied everything from one-off replacements to full window and door packages for200+ unit developments.
There’s no sales layer. Just a focused team making sure you get the right system, in the right spec, delivered at the right time.
