Do we sell a lifestyle, or do we create one?
It’s a question we ask ourselves a lot at Royal Windows and Doors. When someone walks into our Bay Shore or Commack showrooms, they usually have a checklist: they want to lower their energy bills, replace a drafty front door, or finally get that beautiful bay window they’ve dreamed about for years.
But as a family-owned business that has been manufacturing right here on Long Island for 35 years, we’ve learned that a home upgrade is never just about the glass, the fiberglass, or the vinyl.
It’s about how you live.
We realized we don't just sell a lifestyle. We help you create it.
The lifestyle of a lazy Sunday morning, where you can sit by a custom bow window, completely unbothered by the crisp autumn wind outside because your home is perfectly insulated.
The lifestyle of absolute peace of mind, knowing your family is secure behind a meticulously crafted, solid fiberglass entry door.
The lifestyle of a smooth, stress-free morning routine where everything just works—from the effortless crank of a brand-new casement window to a sliding patio door that glides open silently to let the morning sun into your kitchen.
We don't hand you a pre-packaged life from a catalog. We custom-manufacture the high-quality, durable foundations so you can create the everyday lifestyle you deserve. From our factory floor to your family's living room, we take pride in building the views and entryways that frame your generations of memories.
Thank you, Long Island, for letting us help create your lifestyle since 1989.
Thinking about your next home upgrade? Let’s create something beautiful together.

Overthinking a situation isn’t always a bad thing, particularly when the home in question is one in which the past is suddenly meeting the present. Originally designed by Finnish architect Olav Hammarstrom in 1952 for fellow architect Eero Saarinen, this unique home recently received its first transformation in decades. Still in its 1950s skin, it was completely gutted, inside and out. It was a serious undertaking, as the homeowner wanted modern upgrades, while keeping an eye toward retaining the home’s 1950s charm. She had a vision for her home, and she stuck to it from beginning to end.
Perched on a rise of land and overlooking the tranquil Wellfleet Herring Pond, the home initially appears split, with the guest house on the left, and the main house of the right, but both ends are connected with a breezeway. The original home’s bones were in good shape, but many upgrades and replacements were necessary to bring the house up to date.
New siding, roofing, gutters, insulation and mechanical systems were all replaced. Doors and windows with metal frames were custom made by a company in Long Island that fabricates doors for office buildings. Modern heating and cooling systems were added, and the three bathrooms were all updated. The footprint of the home remained unchanged. Inside, the only expansion was more closet space.
The attention to detail in retaining the 50s-style look took a lot of online searching, from handles and knobs to lighting fixtures, with bits and pieces arriving from all over the world, including a doorstop from New Zealand. The homeowner selected many of the fixtures herself, while a very detail-oriented foreman exhaustively researched as well, looking for just the right piece for each and every location.
High-end appliances were purchased to modernize the kitchen and all of the old cabinetry was removed, replaced and refaced with NUVACOR, a versatile surfacing material that not only provided a sleek, modern look, but added convenience and ease of use.
Bare, wood-beamed ceilings throughout give a nod to the home’s natural surroundings, while the main living area (formerly a fisherman’s cabin), with a brick fireplace, was completely trimmed in walnut, while multiple windows of varying sizes welcome sunlight to brighten the home. Here, the sheetrock ceiling with faux rafters provides an interesting and room-brightening feature.
Behind the house sits the serene pond, which can now be enjoyed from the stunning new deck. Here, decking material was not laid out side by side, as it typically is but, instead, meticulously laid out on edge, creating an unusual and eye-catching effect. A railing of tempered glass panels allows unobstructed views of the surrounding natural beauty, and keeps consistent with the open, airy feel of the place. A new outdoor shower is accessible via the deck and left open to the wilderness and the pond below, completing the bold yet sophisticated feeling of this retro-modern home.

A sugatsune edge door pull accentuates the geometry of the overall architectural design, while providing for access from the front, back or the edge of the glass-inset pocket door.

We were hired to create a Lake Charlevoix retreat for our client’s to be used by their whole family throughout the year. We were tasked with creating an inviting cottage that would also have plenty of space for the family and their guests. The main level features open concept living and dining, gourmet kitchen, walk-in pantry, office/library, laundry, powder room and master suite. The walk-out lower level houses a recreation room, wet bar/kitchenette, guest suite, two guest bedrooms, large bathroom, beach entry area and large walk in closet for all their outdoor gear. Balconies and a beautiful stone patio allow the family to live and entertain seamlessly from inside to outside. Coffered ceilings, built in shelving and beautiful white moldings create a stunning interior. Our clients truly love their Northern Michigan home and enjoy every opportunity to come and relax or entertain in their striking space.
