Шаблон:Short description

Caradco is the oldest manufacturer of wooden windows and sliding glass doors in the United States.

Today part of the JELD-WEN Company, Caradco traces its history back to 1856.

History

The company was founded in Dubuque, Iowa.

For many years it was known as Carr, Adams, and Collier - from which the Caradco name is derived.

Examples of Caradco woodwork can still be found within the White House and other well-known buildings.

The company operated a manufacturing plant in Dubuque for many years until it moved operations out of the area.[1]

In media

Portions of the movie F.I.S.T. were filmed at the former Caradco manufacturing plant.[2]

The plant was outfitted with new windows, which were then smashed on purpose for the film, and the windows were then replaced before the end of filming.[3]
