American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA)
Securistyle believes that being a member of AAMA is very important because it is the leading trade association representing window, door, skylight, curtain wall and storefront manufacturers and their suppliers in North America. AAMA members address issues of critical importance, share experience and knowledge, and participate in efforts to shape the future for the industry. The AAMA Certification Program is the only program in the window and door industry that requires that components used in the finished window and door assembly pass their own set of performance tests. The program also requires the use of AAMA-accredited labs so that tests are performed by qualified, experienced professionals using properly calibrated equipment.

All personnel, no matter what level, appreciate the importance of Continuous Professional Development (CPD) in maintaining and improving their professionalism and knowledge on subjects relevant to their job. At Securistyle we recognise this and offer two different types of seminars to support those specifying and working with window and door hardware. Seminar one is on the topic of natural ventilation & sustainability whilst seminar two discusses 'Safe and Secure Ironmongery for window and doors'.
