Can you get European windows in the USA?

There are three main ways to get European windows in the U.S.:
- From a U.S.-based importer – the easiest but most expensive option. You’ll pay their margin on top of the window cost, and still wait weeks for shipping from Europe.
- Directly from a European manufacturer – cheaper, but riskier. You’ll need to vet the supplier yourself and manage logistics and communication across time zones.
- Through a European window broker like debesto – combines lower cost with support. You get access to multiple offers from verified producers, with prices up to 50% lower and shipping time similar to U.S. importers.
