The OSLO international team intends to remain on the cutting edge of modern management and production techniques while continuing to listen to and thus better serve its clientele.
 
  OSLO has understood for decades that the term, “hand crafted” is the most overused, meaningless, even deceptive, term used in the high performance fenestration advertising business. To achieve precision quality wood windows and doors we must be capable of micro tolerance fits in our joinery, making each new unit in the line with equal exacting accuracy. Computer operated state-of-the-art machining technology is the most efficient, cost effective, and ecological method of manufacture therefore is in everyone’s interest.

With it’s latest expansion, Oslo wished to increase productivity but was also looking for greater flexibility as our reputation brought demand for more unusual and complex assignments. Precise criteria were established such as: machining of curved parts (elimination of over a hundred jigs); reduction of inventory and space required for current products; Just-in-Time production management, plus updated work station training; computer network integration so approved shop drawings automatically become part of the CNC machine programming for every product.
    One major solution was the acquisition of a CNC, 5 axis milling center able to change it’s own tool heads several times during any one complex sash or frame milling. Joinery is milled according to computer programs engineered to micro tolerances one at a time or a thousand in sequence without a single mistake.  This is all accomplished in a tenth the time and waste, making assembly faster achieving an overall superior product.

So we leave the pride of hand-crafting to the cottage industry, the cobbler, the carver, potters, weavers… all deserving of respect in their own industry where each piece is treasured for it’s unique differences.
