DUBUQUE SASH & DOOR MANUFACTURING. Founded in 1921 as HURD-MOST SASH & DOOR COMPANY, the firm was purchased in 1977 by Ed Tschiggfrie, Dale B. WIEGAND and George Kennedy and renamed Dubuque Sash and Door.

The company earned 75% of its business producing sash and door products for other companies. The rest of the business came from custom work, duplicating unique woodwork or creating pieces either designed by them or other people.

The 1980 through 1993 Dubuque City Directory listed 950 Jackson.
