ABOUT ARCHITECT’S CHOICE WINDOWS & DOORS

Architect’s Choice is the window and door division of Overhead Inc. and is the Toledo Area’s best destination for builders and home owners needing high quality products for their residential building and remodeling projects.

Started in 1932 by Ray Whimmer as The Overhead Door Company of Toledo, we are the oldest operating garage door company in Toledo, Ohio.

In 1986, in partnership with Kevin Krabach, the window and entry door division was established and continues to operate under Kevin’s management. Today, Architect’s Choice is your choice for windows and entry doors.
