INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
Atrium Companies, Inc. reported that its Wing interior wood door
division has been notified by The Home Depot ("THD") that the retailer plans to
shift its interior door business to two integrated full-line door manufacturers.
These manufacturers apparently have committed to make significant capital and
resource investments to serve the majority of THD's interior wood door needs.
Consequently, THD's reported strategic alliance will result in a significant
reduction in purchases of solid wood, hollow-core and bi-fold doors for stock
purposes from Atrium and several other millwork producers. The timing of the
transition will be affected by several factors, but is expected to be completed
in 2000.
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, other than statements of
historical information, are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to
the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are inherently
uncertain. Actual performance and results may differ materially from those
projected or suggested herein due to certain risks and uncertainties including,
without limitation, the risks associated with the ability to consummate the

are described in Atrium's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") made over the last 12 months, copies of which are available from the
SEC or may be obtained upon request from Atrium.
