Ian Ferguson

Managing Director

Ian Ferguson entered the window and glazing industry in 1986 at the age of 19 before founding Abacus Windows in 1992. Over the past four decades, he has built the business on a commitment to quality, reliability and exceptional customer service.

As Managing Director, Ian continues to oversee every aspect of the business, ensuring the same high standards and family values that established Abacus Windows over 34 years ago remain at the heart of everything we do.

Gareth Ferguson

Commercial Director

Gareth joined Abacus Windows in 2007 at just 15 years old, beginning his career on the factory floor and learning every stage of the manufacturing process from the ground up.

Now aged 34, Gareth has spent 19 years in the window and glazing industry. As Commercial Director, he works closely with homeowners, installers, architects, developers and commercial clients, providing technical guidance, project support and tailored solutions for projects of every size.

Alongside nearly two decades of practical industry experience, Gareth also holds a First Class Honours degree in Business, helping drive the continued growth and development of Abacus Windows.

James Ferguson

Production Manager

James joined Abacus Windows at the age of 15, following the same hands-on route through the factory and manufacturing process.

Today, as Production Manager, James oversees the day-to-day running of production, ensuring every window, door and aluminium system leaving the factory meets the high standards our customers have come to expect

His attention to detail, product knowledge and commitment to quality play a key role in maintaining the reputation Abacus Windows has built over more than three decades.

A Family Built on Experience

Between them, Ian, Gareth and James bring almost 70 years of combined hands-on experience within the window and glazing industry. While products and technology continue to evolve, the principles behind Abacus Windows remain the same today as they were in 1992: quality craftsmanship, honest advice and outstanding customer service. Whether you’re replacing a single window, supplying a trade project or delivering a large commercial development, you’ll be working with a family that genuinely understands the industry from the ground up.
