Need High-Quality? Look for the Gold AAMA Certification Label!
The American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA), which is now part of the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) offers certifications for windows and doors.
An AAMA Gold Label Certification on a window or door is a mark of high quality and reliability. Many homeowners throughout Tampa have come to trust and rely on this mark to help them find the best windows and doors to consistently stand up to the toughest conditions that Tampa weather can throw at them.
How Does AAMA Certification Work?
Be Made on Certified Production Lines
The window or door with an AAMA Gold label must be made on a production line that has been certified by the AAMA/FGIA. Inspectors will go to the manufacturing site to check conditions.
Undergo Surprise Inspections
The AAMA/FGIA conducts two surprise inspections per year to ensure that the production line making the window is upholding the standards for Gold Certification.
Prove Reliable After Repetitive Use
Doors and windows undergoing Gold Label Certification testing are tested repeatedly to verify they’ll work reliably without getting stuck or jammed in addition to passing air and water leakage tests.

FAQs about AAMA-Certified Windows & Doors
What Does AAMA Certification Mean?
AAMA Certification is a process wherein a window or door is tested by an independent laboratory that was accredited by the AAMA/FGIA to ensure that it meets AAMA standards for durability, quality, and reliability.
Windows or doors that pass all of the AAMA’s tests are given a Gold Label certification.
What Does the FGIA Have to Do with the AAMA Certification?
The American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) combined with the Insulating Glass Manufacturers Alliance (IGMA) to become the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) back in 2020. So, the FGIA is the AAMA and manages the same tests and standards as they did when they were called the AAMA.
Are AAMA Certified Windows Hurricane Proof?
The AAMA is an approved validator for new windows and doors in the state of Florida. As the Florida Building Code (FBC) requires windows and doors to meet certain hurricane resistance standards, a window that is passed through the AAMA’s Florida Product Approval Program will necessarily meet our state’s requirements for hurricane impact resistance.
However, it’s important to verify that the windows or doors being installed have gone through the AAMA’s Florida Product Approval Program to ensure they’re hurricane-proof. So, you should check if the fenestration (window or door) has passed the Large and Small Missile Impact D testing standard.
What Is the AAMA Silver Label for Windows?
Aside from the Gold Label certification, AAMA offers a Silver Label certification. The difference between Silver and Gold Label certification is that a Silver Label-certified window or door only needs to meet the AAMA’s thermal performance standards.
A Silver Label-certified window or door may not have been tested for basic structural integrity, air leakage, or water resistance. So, be sure to look for the Gold Label!
What Are AAMA’s Standards for Gold Label Certification?
The AAMA’s Gold Label certification standards cover several different performance categories for windows and doors:
- Durability. Doors and windows must meet certain basic impact standards to earn the Gold Label certification.
- Reliability. The operating force needed to open or close a door/window must remain consistent after repeated operating tests. In other words, the window/door shouldn’t get stuck after being opened and closed repeatedly.
- Safety/Security. The door or window should be resistant to forced entry or impacts from flying debris and prevent water leakage to protect the interior of the home.
- Energy Efficiency. Air leakage and heat transference should be kept to a minimum to meet AAMA energy efficiency standards.
To earn a Gold Label certification, windows and doors must meet all of these criteria.
