PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

(TO PROSPECTUS DATED MARCH 1, 2021)

10,000,000 Shares

JELD-WEN Holding, Inc.

Common Stock

The selling shareholders identified in this prospectus supplement, Onex Corporation and certain investment funds managed by Onex Partners Manager LP and its affiliates (collectively, “Onex”), are offering 10,000,000 shares of common stock of JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. We are not selling any shares of our common stock in this offering, and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling shareholders.

Subject to the completion of the offering, we intend to repurchase 1,000,000 of the aggregate 10,000,000 shares of our common stock that are the subject of the offering. The price per share to be paid by us will equal the price at which the underwriter will purchase the shares from the selling shareholders in the offering. Accordingly, the number of shares of our common stock available to the general public will be 9,000,000 shares. The terms and conditions of the share repurchase were reviewed and approved by a majority of the independent directors of our board of directors. The offering of shares hereby is not conditioned upon the completion of such share repurchase.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “JELD”. The last reported sale price of our common stock on May 10, 2021 as reported on the NYSE was $30.66 per share.

After the completion of this offering, and giving effect to the share repurchase, Onex will own approximately 15.01% of our common stock.

Investing in our common stock involves risk. See “Risk Factors” on page S-3 of this prospectus supplement, in the accompanying prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of our common stock.

The underwriter has agreed to purchase the shares of common stock from the selling shareholders at a price of $28.80 per share, which will result in aggregate proceeds of $288,000,000 to the selling shareholders before expenses. The underwriter may offer the shares of common stock from time to time for sale in one or more transactions on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. We have agreed to reimburse the underwriter for certain expenses in connection with this offering. See “Underwriting.”

Delivery of the shares of common stock will be made on or about May 13, 2021.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is May 10, 2021.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other factors and information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the risks set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2021 as well as other risk factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in any of our filings with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. See “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” and “Where You Can Find More Information.” The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock

The outbreak of COVID-19 has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on the global economy and on our business, operations, and results.

The COVID-19 pandemic, and the measures taken to contain or mitigate it, have had dramatic adverse consequences for the economy, including the demand for goods and services, operations, supply chains, and financial markets. The nature and scope of the consequences to date are difficult to evaluate precisely, and their future course is impossible to predict with confidence.

The COVID-19 crisis has had several significant effects on our employees, operations, supply chain, distribution system, customer demand, the housing market, and general market and economic conditions. The effects we have experienced included the following:

These effects began in the latter weeks of March 2020 and continued throughout, to varying extents, the remainder of the year. We experienced intermittent plant closures during 2020 as mandated by local governments and may continue to see similar closures as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. Initiatives, including travel restrictions and quarantines, have and may continue to impact a significant percentage of our workforce and the workforce of our suppliers or transportation providers as they are unable to work as a result of the viral outbreak. If additional factory closures are required or reductions in capacity utilization levels occur, we expect to incur additional direct costs due to reduced productivity and lost revenue. If our suppliers experience closures or reductions in their capacity utilization levels in the future, we may have difficulty sourcing materials necessary to fulfill production requirements or be required to pay a higher price to fulfill our requirements.

S-3

The effects of the COVID-19 crisis could be aggravated if the crisis continues, and we could also see additional impacts that might include the following:

If these effects are sustained, they could have accounting consequences such as impairments of fixed assets or goodwill. They may also impact controls over financial reporting. They could also affect our ability to execute our expansion plans or invest in research and development.

The adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations of any of the matters described above could be material. The future impact of the COVID-19 crisis on our business, financial condition, or results of operations is highly uncertain and will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot predict, including, but not limited to:

To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic or any other global health crisis does adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the “Risk Factors” included herein.

S-4

The market price of our common stock may be highly volatile and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the price you paid.

Our common stock has only been listed for public trading since January 27, 2017. As of April 30, 2021, the price of our common stock since the date of our IPO, as reported by the NYSE, has ranged from an intraday high of $42.27 to an intraday low of $6.06. The trading price of our common stock may continue to be volatile. Securities markets worldwide experience significant price and volume fluctuations. This market volatility, as well as other general economic, market or political conditions, could reduce the market price of our shares in spite of our operating performance. The following factors, in addition to other factors described in this “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock:

In addition, broad market and industry factors, including the trading prices of the securities of our publicly traded competitors, may negatively affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance, and factors beyond our control may cause our stock price to decline rapidly and unexpectedly. Furthermore, the stock market has experienced extreme volatility that, in some cases, has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies.

We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.

Our share price may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject us to significant liabilities.

S-5

Because Onex will own a substantial portion of our common stock following this offering, it may continue to influence all major corporate decisions and its interests may conflict with the interests of other holders of our common stock.

Upon completion of this offering, after giving effect to the sale of our common stock by the selling shareholders and the share repurchase, Onex will beneficially own approximately 14.9 million shares of our common stock, representing approximately 15.01% of our outstanding common stock. Onex will be able to influence matters requiring approval by our shareholders and/or our board of directors, including the election of directors and the approval of business combinations or dispositions and other extraordinary transactions. They may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. The concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, preventing, or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and may materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, Onex may in the future own businesses that directly compete with ours. Further, for so long as Onex owns at least 5% of our outstanding common stock (calculated on an as-converted, fully diluted basis), Onex has the right to purchase its pro rata portion of the primary shares offered in any future public offering. This right could result in Onex continuing to maintain a substantial ownership of our common stock. Onex also has the right to nominate one director to our board of directors for as long as Onex maintains at least 12.5% of our outstanding common stock.

Our directors who have relationships with Onex may have conflicts of interest with respect to matters involving our Company.

Two of our directors are affiliated with Onex. These persons have fiduciary duties to both us and Onex. As a result, they may have real or apparent conflicts of interest on matters affecting both us and Onex, which in some circumstances may have interests adverse to ours. Onex is in the business of making or advising on investments in companies and may hold, and from time to time may acquire, interests in, or provide advice to, businesses that directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business or that are suppliers or customers of ours. In addition, as a result of Onex’s ownership interest, conflicts of interest could arise with respect to transactions involving business dealings between us and Onex including potential acquisitions of businesses or properties, the issuance of additional securities, the payment of dividends, and other matters.

In addition, as described under the heading “Description of Capital Stock” in the accompanying prospectus, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the doctrine of “corporate opportunity” will not apply with respect to us, to Onex or certain related parties or any of our directors who are employees of Onex or its affiliates in a manner that would prohibit them from investing in competing businesses or doing business with our customers. To the extent they invest in such other businesses, Onex may have differing interests than our other shareholders.

Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of shares of our common stock in the public market by us or our existing shareholders could cause our stock price to fall.

The sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market after this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur, including sales by Onex, could materially adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock. As of April 28, 2021, we had 100,164,379 shares of common stock outstanding. Nearly all of these securities, including all of the 10,000,000 shares of common stock offered hereby, will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under federal securities laws, except to the extent shares are repurchased by us or purchased by our affiliates. The approximately 14.9 million shares of common stock owned (after giving effect to this offering) by Onex, and the shares owned by our executive officers and directors, are “restricted securities” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Restricted securities may not be sold in the public market unless the sale is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available.

S-6

In connection with this offering, we, our executive officers, our directors, the selling shareholders and certain existing shareholders have entered into lock-up agreements that prevent the sale of shares of our common stock for 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, subject to waiver by the underwriter. Shares held by Onex and certain of our directors, officers and shareholders are eligible for resale, subject to volume, manner of sale and other limitations under Rule 144. Onex, as well as the shareholders owning a majority of the shares (other than shares owned by Onex) that are subject to a registration rights agreement, dated January 24, 2017, as amended from time to time (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), each have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require us to register the sale of shares owned by such persons under the federal securities laws. By exercising their registration rights, and selling a large number of shares, these holders could cause the prevailing market price of our common stock to decline. In addition, shares issued or issuable upon exercise of options and vested RSUs and PSUs will be eligible for sale from time to time or, if not subject to the lock-up agreements described above, will be eligible for sale immediately following exercise of such options. As of April 28, 2021, we had 1,180,120 shares reserved for issuance pursuant to equity awards outstanding under our 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and 4,599,563 shares reserved for issuance pursuant to equity awards under our 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan.

Our employees, officers, and directors may elect to sell shares of our common stock in the public market. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market after this offering could depress the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities.

The JELD-WEN Employee Stock Ownership and Retirement Plan (“ESOP”) and the JELD-WEN, Inc. KSOP (“KSOP”), are designed as tax-qualified retirement plans and employee stock ownership plans under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Former employees are entitled to receive distributions of accounts held under the ESOP and KSOP at specified times and in specified forms. In addition, each plan permits diversification of the Company’s common stock held in participants’ accounts. The ESOP and KSOP may sell shares in the open market to fund hardship distributions and diversifications or participants may sell shares received as part of their distributions. In the three months ended March 27, 2021, 94,018 shares were either sold by the plans to cover cash distributions and diversifications or distributed to participants.

In the future, we may issue securities to raise cash for acquisitions or otherwise. We may also acquire interests in other companies by using a combination of cash and our common stock or just our common stock and may issue securities convertible into our common stock. Any of these events may dilute your ownership interest in our company and have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

If securities or industry analysts cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they adversely change their recommendations or publish negative reports regarding our business or our stock, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock can be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. We do not have any control over these analysts and we cannot provide any assurance that analysts will cover us or provide favorable coverage. If any of the analysts who may cover us adversely change their recommendation regarding our stock, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price could decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

S-7

Because we have no current plans to pay cash dividends on our shares of common stock, shareholders must rely on appreciation of the value of our common stock for any return on their investment.

We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and have no current plans to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of our senior secured credit facilities, senior notes, senior secured notes and any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, we expect that only appreciation of the price of our common stock, if any, will provide a return to investors in this offering for the foreseeable future.

Some provisions of our charter documents and Delaware law may have anti-takeover effects that could discourage an acquisition of us by others, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our shareholders, and may prevent attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current management.

Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our second amended and restated bylaws, as well as provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us or increase the cost of acquiring us, even if doing so would benefit our shareholders, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws currently provide for the following, among other things:

We have also opted out of Section 203 of the DGCL, which, subject to some exceptions, prohibits business combinations between a Delaware corporation and an interested shareholder, which is generally defined as a shareholder who becomes a beneficial owner of 15% or more of a Delaware corporation’s voting stock for a three-year period following the date that the shareholder became an interested shareholder. At some time in the future, we may again be governed by Section 203. Section 203 could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control that our shareholders might consider to be in their best interests. See “Description of Capital Stock”. In addition, our largest shareholder, Onex, has the ability to nominate one director to our board of directors to the extent Onex maintains at least 12.5% of our outstanding common stock.

These anti-takeover defenses could discourage, delay or prevent a transaction involving a change in control of our company. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors of your choosing and cause us to take corporate actions other than those you desire.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides, subject to limited exceptions, that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for certain disputes between us and our shareholders, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides, that unless we consent to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, any action or proceeding asserting a breach of fiduciary duty owned by any director or officer to us or our shareholders, any action or proceedings asserting a claim against us arising

S-8

pursuant to the DGCL or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or second amended and restated bylaws, or any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and other employees. Alternatively, if a court were to find the provision contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

Because we are a holding company with no operations of our own, we rely on dividends, distributions, and transfers of funds from our subsidiaries and we could be harmed if such distributions were not made in the future.

We are a holding company that conducts all of our operations through subsidiaries and the majority of our operating income is derived from our subsidiary JELD-WEN, Inc., our main operating subsidiary. Consequently, we rely on dividends or advances from our subsidiaries. We have no current plans to declare or pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future; however, to the extent that we determine in the future to pay dividends on our common stock, none of our subsidiaries will be obligated to make funds available to us for the payment of dividends. The ability of such subsidiaries to pay dividends to us is subject to applicable local law and may be limited due to terms of other contractual arrangements, including our indebtedness. Such laws and restrictions would restrict our ability to continue operations. In addition, Delaware law may impose requirements that may restrict our ability to pay dividends to holders of our common stock.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock held by the selling shareholders as of April 28, 2021, before and after giving effect to this offering and the share repurchase.

Information with respect to beneficial ownership has been furnished to us by the selling shareholders listed in the table below. The amounts and percentages of our common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of rules of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power”, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of such security, or “investment power”, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days, including any shares of our common stock subject to an option that has vested or will vest within 60 days. More than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities.

The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 100,164,379 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 28, 2021 prior to this offering and 99,164,379 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 28, 2021 after giving effect to the retirement of the 1,000,000 shares repurchased by us.

Unless otherwise indicated below, to our knowledge, all persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by them. In addition, based on the information provided to us by the selling shareholders, none of the selling shareholders is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer. Addresses for the beneficial owners are set forth in the footnotes to the table.

Onex Corporation, a corporation whose subordinated voting shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and/or Mr. Gerald W. Schwartz, may be deemed to beneficially own the common stock held by (a) Onex Partners III LP, through Onex Corporation’s indirect ownership or control of Onex Partners Manager GP ULC, the general partner of Onex Partners Manager LP, the agent of Onex Partners III GP LP, the general partner of Onex Partners III LP, (b) Onex BP Co-Invest LP, through Onex Corporation’s indirect ownership or control of Onex Partners Manager GP ULC, the general partner of Onex Partners Manager LP, the agent of Onex Partners III GP LP, the general partner of Onex BP Co-Invest LP, (c) Onex Partners III GP LP, through Onex Corporation’s ownership of all of the equity of Onex Partners GP Inc., the general

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common stock that is purchased pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. This summary is limited to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold our common stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (which we refer to as the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This summary does not discuss all of the aspects of U.S. federal income and estate taxation that may be relevant to a Non-U.S. Holder in light of the Non-U.S. Holder’s particular investment or other circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. Accordingly, all prospective Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common stock.

This summary is based on provisions of the Code, applicable U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations, all as in effect or in existence on the date of this prospectus supplement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income or estate tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could alter the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences to a Non-U.S. Holder of owning and disposing of our common stock as described in this summary. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or a court will not take a contrary position with respect to one or more of the tax consequences described herein, and we have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income or estate tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of our common stock.

As used in this summary, the term ”Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock that is not, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in such a partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership, and certain determinations made at the partner level. Partnerships, and partners in partnerships, that hold our common stock should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of owning and disposing of our common stock that are applicable to them.

This summary does not consider any specific facts or circumstances that may apply to a Non-U.S. Holder and does not address any special tax rules that may apply to particular Non-U.S. Holders, such as:

S-15

In addition, this summary does not address any U.S. state or local, or non-U.S. or other tax consequences, or any U.S. federal income or estate tax consequences for beneficial owners of a Non-U.S. Holder, including shareholders of a controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign investment company that holds our common stock.

Each Non-U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local, and non-U.S. income and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of our common stock.

Distributions on Our Common Stock

We have no current plans to pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. If we make distributions of cash or property (other than certain pro rata distributions of our common stock) with respect to our common stock, any such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. If a distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess will be treated as a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of the Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock and will reduce (but not below zero) such Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain from a disposition of our common stock subject to the tax treatment described below in “—Sales or Other Dispositions of Our Common Stock”.

Distributions on our common stock to a Non-U.S. Holder that are treated as dividends, and that are not effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of dividends. A Non-U.S. Holder may be eligible for a lower rate of withholding under an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and its jurisdiction of tax residence. In order to claim the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty, a Non-U.S. Holder will be required to provide to the applicable withholding agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) in accordance with the applicable certification and disclosure requirements certifying qualification for the lower treaty rate. Special rules apply to partnerships and other pass-through entities and these certification and disclosure requirements also may apply to beneficial owners of partnerships and other pass-through entities that hold our common stock. A Non-U.S. Holder should consult its tax advisor regarding its entitlement to benefits under any applicable income tax treaty.

Distributions on our common stock to a Non-U.S. Holder that are treated as dividends, and that are effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States will be taxed on a net income basis at the regular graduated rates and generally in the manner applicable to United States persons (unless the Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for and properly claims the benefit of an applicable income tax treaty and the dividends are not attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by

S-16

the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States, in which case the Non-U.S. Holder may be eligible for a lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and its jurisdiction of tax residence). Dividends to a Non-U.S. Holder that are effectively connected with a Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States will not be subject to the withholding of U.S. federal income tax discussed above if the Non-U.S. Holder provides to the applicable withholding agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or other applicable form) in accordance with the applicable certification and disclosure requirements. A Non-U.S. Holder that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes may also be subject to a “branch profits” tax at a 30% rate (or a lower rate if the Non-U.S. Holder is eligible for a lower rate under an applicable income tax treaty) on the Non-U.S. Holder’s earnings and profits (attributable to dividends on our common stock or otherwise) that are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, subject to certain adjustments.

The certifications described above must be provided to the applicable withholding agent prior to the payment of dividends and must be updated periodically. A Non-U.S. Holder may obtain a refund or credit of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for a refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their eligibility for benefits under a relevant income tax treaty and the manner of claiming such benefits.

The foregoing discussion is subject to the discussion below under “—Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” and “—FATCA Withholding”.

Sales or Other Dispositions of Our Common Stock

A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including withholding thereof) on any gain recognized on sales or other dispositions of our common stock unless:

Generally, a corporation is a “United States real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests plus its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. We believe that we are not currently, and we do not anticipate becoming in the future, a United States real property holding corporation. However, because the determination of whether we are a United States real property holding corporation is made from time to time and depends on the relative fair market values of our assets, there can be no assurance in this regard. If we were a United States real property holding corporation, the tax relating to disposition of stock in a United States real property holding corporation generally will not apply to a Non-U.S. Holder whose holdings, direct, indirect, and constructive, constituted 5% or less of our common stock at all times

S-17

during the applicable period, provided that our common stock is “regularly traded on an established securities market” (as provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations) at any time during the calendar year in which the disposition occurs. However, no assurance can be provided that our common stock will be regularly traded on an established securities market for purposes of the rules described above. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to them if we are, or were to become, a United States real property holding corporation.

The foregoing discussion is subject to the discussion below under “—Backup Withholding and Information Reporting” and “—FATCA Withholding”.

Federal Estate Tax

Our common stock that is owned (or treated as owned) by an individual who is not a U.S. citizen or resident of the United States (as specially defined for U.S. federal estate tax purposes) at the time of death will be included in the individual’s gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax or other treaty provides otherwise and, therefore, may be subject to U.S. federal estate tax.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) will not apply to payments of dividends on our common stock to a Non-U.S. Holder if the Non-U.S. Holder provides to the applicable withholding agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying under penalties of perjury that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person, or otherwise qualifies for an exemption. However, the applicable withholding agent generally will be required to report to the IRS and to such Non-U.S. Holder payments of distributions on our common stock (regardless of whether such distributions constituted dividends) and the amount of U.S. federal income tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments. Copies of the information returns reporting such dividends and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides under the provisions of a treaty or agreement.

The gross proceeds from sales or other dispositions of our common stock may be subject to backup withholding and information reporting, unless the Non-U.S. Holder provides to the broker a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form) certifying under penalties of perjury that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person, or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise qualifies for an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be credited against the Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability (which may result in the Non-U.S. Holder being entitled to a refund), provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

FATCA Withholding

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act and related Treasury guidance (commonly referred to as “FATCA”) impose U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% on payments to certain foreign entities of (i) U.S.-source dividends (including dividends paid on our common stock) and (ii) the gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of property that produces U.S.-source dividends (including sales or other dispositions of our common stock). Under proposed Treasury regulations that may be relied upon pending finalization, the withholding tax on gross proceeds would be eliminated and, consequently, FATCA withholding on gross proceeds is not currently expected to apply. This withholding tax applies to a foreign entity, whether acting as a beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless such foreign entity complies with (i) certain information reporting requirements regarding its U.S. account holders and its U.S. owners and (ii) certain withholding obligations regarding certain payments to its account holders and certain other persons, or, in each case, such foreign entity

S-18

otherwise qualifies for an exemption. Accordingly, the entity through which a Non-U.S. Holder holds its common stock will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. A payee that is a foreign financial institution located in a jurisdiction that has an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Non-U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors regarding FATCA.

UNDERWRITING

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC is acting as sole underwriter for this offering. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement among us, the selling shareholders and the underwriter, the selling shareholders have agreed to sell to the underwriter, and the underwriter has agreed to purchase from the selling shareholders, all of the shares of common stock being sold in this offering.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, the underwriter has agreed to purchase all of the shares sold under the underwriting agreement if any of these shares are purchased.

We and the selling shareholders, severally and not jointly, have agreed to indemnify the underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriter may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The underwriter is offering the shares, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel, including the validity of the shares, and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriter of officers’ certificates and legal opinions. The underwriter reserves the right to withdraw, cancel, or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

The underwriter has agreed to purchase the shares of common stock from the selling shareholders at a price of $28.80 per share, which will result in aggregate proceeds of $288,000,000 to the selling shareholders before expenses. The underwriter may offer the shares of common stock from time to time for sale in one or more transactions on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The underwriter may effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriter and/or purchasers of shares of common stock for whom they may act as agents or to whom they may sell as principal. The difference between the price at which the underwriter purchases shares and the price at which the underwriter resells such shares may be deemed underwriting compensation.

Subject to the completion of the offering, we intend to repurchase 1,000,000 of the aggregate 10,000,000 shares of our common stock that are the subject of the offering. The price per share to be paid by us will equal the price at which the underwriter will purchase the shares from the selling shareholders in the offering. Accordingly, the number of shares of our common stock available to the general public will be 9,000,000 shares. See “Prospectus Supplement Summary—Recent Developments—Simultaneous Share Repurchase.” The terms and conditions of the share repurchase were reviewed and approved by a majority of the independent directors of our board of directors. The offering of shares hereby is not conditioned upon the completion of such share repurchase.

We are not selling any shares of common stock in this offering, and will not receive any of the proceeds from the shares of common stock sold by the selling shareholders.

The expenses of the offering are estimated at $1 million and are payable by us. The underwriter has agreed to reimburse us for certain offering related expenses. We have also agreed to reimburse the underwriter for up to $15,000 of reasonable fees and expenses of counsel related to the review by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or “FINRA”, of the terms of sale of the shares offered hereby.

In connection with this offering, we, our executive officers, our directors, the selling shareholders and certain existing shareholders have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock, for 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement without first obtaining the written consent of the underwriter, subject to certain exceptions, including

S-20

an exception for sales of up to 80,000 shares, in the aggregate, by such officers and directors and certain sales pursuant to existing 10b5-1 plans. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:

This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition.

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “JELD”.

Until the distribution of the shares is completed, SEC rules may limit underwriters and selling group members from bidding for and purchasing our common stock. However, the underwriter may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the common stock, such as bids or purchases to peg, fix, or maintain that price.

In connection with the offering, the underwriter may purchase and sell our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales, and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriter of a greater number of shares than it is required to purchase in the offering. The underwriter must close out any short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the underwriter is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of shares of common stock made by the underwriter in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriter’s purchases to cover short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The underwriter may conduct these transactions on the NYSE, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise.

Neither we nor the underwriter make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor the underwriter make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

S-21

In connection with the offering, the underwriter or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail. In addition, the underwriter may facilitate Internet distribution for this offering to certain of its Internet subscription customers. The underwriter may allocate a limited number of shares for sale to its online brokerage customers. An electronic prospectus is available on Internet web sites maintained by the underwriter. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on the web sites of the underwriter is not part of this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus.

The underwriter and its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing, and brokerage activities. The underwriter and its affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, investment banking, commercial banking, and other services for us for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. Furthermore, the underwriter and its affiliates may, from time to time, enter into arms-length transactions with us in the ordinary course of their business.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for its own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the Company. The underwriter and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following is a description of our capital stock and the material provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (our “certificate of incorporation”) and second amended and restated bylaws (our “bylaws”). The following is only a summary and is qualified by applicable law and by the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws and other agreements, copies of which are available as set forth under the caption entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” and incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.

General

As of the date of this prospectus, our authorized capital stock consists of 900,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share and 90,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, the rights, preferences, and privileges of which may be designated from time to time by our board of directors. The rights and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to any series of preferred stock that we may issue in the future.

As of February 19, 2021, there were 100,835,851 outstanding shares of common stock (excluding 4,339,610 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options or settlement of restricted stock units) and no outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Common Stock

Voting Rights. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters with respect to which the holders of our common stock are entitled to vote.

Dividend Rights. Subject to preferences that may apply to shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, holders of our outstanding common stock are entitled to any dividend declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available for this purpose. However, provisions of the agreements governing our indebtedness from time to time may impose restrictions on our ability to declare dividends on our common stock. Dividends paid in shares of our common stock must be paid, with respect to a particular class of common stock, in shares of that class.

Conversion Rights. Our common stock is not convertible.

Other Rights. The holders of our common stock will not have any preemptive or other similar rights to purchase any of our securities, cumulative voting, subscription, redemption or sinking fund rights (except for the subscription rights granted to Onex pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below)). See “—Registration Rights Agreement—Participation Right” below.

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions. Upon our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, our assets which are legally available for distribution, after payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the rights of any holders of preferred stock then outstanding, to the holders of common stock.

Assessability. All shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of this offering will be fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

Preferred stock, if issued, would have priority over common stock with respect to dividends and other distributions, including the distribution of our assets upon liquidation. Unless required by law or by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, our board of directors will have the authority, without further shareholder

7

authorization, to issue from time to time shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the terms, limitations, relative rights and preferences and variations of each series. Although we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock, could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights of common stock, and could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of us or an unsolicited acquisition proposal.

Record Holders

As of February 19, 2021, our outstanding shares of common stock were held of record by approximately 1,381 shareholders.

Registration Rights Agreement

We, Onex, certain of our directors and executive officers and other pre-IPO shareholders entered into a registration rights agreement dated October 3, 2011 in connection with the Onex Investment that was amended and restated on January 24, 2017 in connection with our IPO, amended on May 12, 2017 in connection with the May 2017 secondary public offering of our common stock and further amended on November 12, 2017 in connection with the November 2017 secondary public offering of our common stock (as amended and restated and as subsequently amended, the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, certain shareholders who are party to the Registration Rights Agreement have the right to require us to register their shares under the Securities Act under specified circumstances, including the right to require us to facilitate underwritten offerings as well as to make available shelf registration statements permitting sales of shares into the market from time to time over an extended period, and will have certain incidental registration rights. After registration pursuant to these rights, in most cases, these shares of our common stock will become freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act.

Other Provisions

The registration rights are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in a registration statement and our right to delay or withdraw a registration statement under certain circumstances. We will generally pay all registration expenses in connection with our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary cross-indemnification provisions, pursuant to which we are obligated to indemnify any selling shareholders in the event of material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to us, and each selling shareholder is obligated to indemnify us for material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to information specifically provided by such selling shareholder, which indemnification obligations will survive any termination of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Termination

The rights and obligations of the shareholders subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, on the one hand, and JELD-WEN, on the other hand, with respect to demand registration and piggyback registration rights will terminate when Onex ceases to own any “Registrable Securities”, as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement.

Participation Right

For so long as Onex and its affiliates collectively own at least 5% of our outstanding common stock (calculated on an as-converted, fully diluted basis), Onex has the right to purchase its pro rata portion of the primary shares offered pursuant to any future public offering by us at the same price at which the common stock will be offered to the public pursuant to the offering.

8

Limitations on Directors’ Liability

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions indemnifying our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors which, in some cases, are broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law.

In addition, as permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), our certificate of incorporation provides that no director will be liable to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the rights of our shareholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except that a director will be personally liable for:

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of our directors shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

This provision does not affect a director’s liability under the federal securities laws.

To the extent our directors, officers and controlling persons are indemnified under the provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, the DGCL, or contractual arrangements against liabilities arising under the Securities Act, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and the DGCL that May Have an Anti-Takeover Effect

Our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and the DGCL contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another party from acquiring control of us. These provisions, which are summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors.

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Certain provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by shareholders.

Among other things, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

9

The foregoing provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control. Further, these provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, these provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts, and these provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.

Delaware Takeover Statute

Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any “business combination” (as defined below) with any “interested stockholder” (as defined below) for a period of three years following the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless: (i) prior to such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder.

Section 203 of the DGCL defines “business combination” to include: (i) any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder; (ii) any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder; (iii) subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by interested stockholder; (ii) on consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned (x) by persons who are directors and also officers and (y) by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or (iii) on or subsequent to such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder; (iv) any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or (v) the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation. In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.

We have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, as permitted under and pursuant to subsection (b)(3) of Section 203.

Corporate Opportunity

The DGCL permits corporations to adopt provisions renouncing any interest or expectancy in certain opportunities that are presented to a corporation or its officers, directors, or shareholders. In our certificate of incorporation, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we renounce any interest or expectancy that we have in any business opportunity, transaction, or other matter in which Onex, any officer, director, partner, or employee of any entity comprising an Onex entity, and any portfolio company in which such entities or persons have an equity interest (other than us) (each, an “Excluded Party”) participates or desires or seeks to participate

10

in, even if the opportunity is one that we might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or have had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so. Each such Excluded Party has no duty to communicate or offer such business opportunity to us and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, is not liable to us or any of our shareholders for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director or officer or controlling shareholder or otherwise, by reason of the fact that such Excluded Party pursues or acquires such business opportunity, directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or information regarding such business opportunity, to us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our certificate of incorporation does not renounce any interest or expectancy we may have in any business opportunity, transaction or other matter that is (i) offered in writing solely to one of our directors or officers who is not also an Excluded Party, (ii) offered to an Excluded Party who is one of our directors, officers or employees and who is offered such opportunity solely in his or her capacity as one of our directors, officers or employees or (iii) identified by an Excluded Party solely through the disclosure of information by or on our behalf.

Choice of Forum

Our certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, any action or proceeding asserting a breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director or officer to us or our shareholders, any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the DGCL or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws or any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Although we believe this provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of claims to which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers and may limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.

Stock Exchange Listing

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “JELD”.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

We may register for sale shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus for any selling shareholder named in a prospectus supplement. Since we are a WKSI, we may add secondary sales of our common stock by any selling shareholder by filing a prospectus supplement with the SEC. We may register these shares to permit selling shareholders to resell their shares when they deem appropriate. Except as may be set forth in any prospectus supplement, we will pay all of the expenses in connection with the registration and the sale of the shares, other than selling commissions and certain fees and expenses of counsel and other advisors to the selling shareholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling shareholders. Information concerning the selling shareholders may change from time to time, and any changed information will be set forth if and when required in the applicable prospectus supplement. To the extent that this prospectus is used by any selling shareholders to offer or sell any shares of our common stock, information with respect to the selling shareholders and the plan of distribution will be contained in a supplement to this prospectus, in a post-effective amendment or in filings we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act, which are incorporated by reference herein.

The selling shareholders may include Onex and its transferees, distributees, pledgees, donees, assignees or other successors. As of February 19, 2021, Onex beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 32.9 million shares, or approximately 32.6% of our outstanding common stock. We cannot provide an estimate as to the number of shares of common stock that will be held by any selling shareholders upon consummation of any offering or offerings covered by this prospectus because a selling shareholder may offer some, all or none of such shareholder’s shares of common stock in any such offering or offerings.

We will provide to the selling shareholders copies of this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement and will take certain other actions as are required to permit unrestricted sales of the common stock to be sold by such selling shareholders.

12

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell our common stock: (a) through agents; (b) through underwriters, brokers or dealers; (c) directly to one or more purchasers, including through a specific bidding or auction process or otherwise; (d) in “at the market offerings,” within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act; or (e) through a combination of any of these methods of sale. The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the particular offering and the method of distribution and will identify any firms acting as underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, including:

We may distribute shares of our common stock from time to time in one or more transactions, including block transactions and transactions on any organized market where the securities may be traded. Shares of our common stock may be sold at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated or discounted prices. The consideration may be cash or another form negotiated by the parties. Agents, underwriters or broker-dealers may be paid compensation for offering and selling shares of our common stock. That compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions to be received from us or from the purchasers of our common stock .

If underwriters or dealers are used in the sale of any shares, the shares will be acquired by the underwriters or dealers for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Any underwriting discounts or other compensation that we pay to underwriters or agents in connection with the offering of our common stock, and any discounts, concessions or commissions that underwriters allow to dealers, will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Underwriters may sell shares of our common stock to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from such underwriters and commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of our common stock may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profit on the resale of our common stock they realize may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Any such underwriter or agent will be identified, and any such compensation received from us will be described in the applicable supplement to this prospectus. Unless otherwise set forth in the supplement to this prospectus relating thereto, the obligations of any underwriters or agents to purchase shares of our common stock will be subject to conditions precedent and any underwriters will be obligated to purchase all offered shares of common stock if any are purchased. The public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

Any common stock sold by us or any selling shareholder pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement will be approved for trading, upon notice of issuance, on the New York Stock Exchange.

13

Underwriters and their controlling persons, dealers and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification against and contribution toward specific civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Underwriters, dealers or any other third parties described above may offer and sell the offered shares from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The shares of common stock may be either offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters, or directly by the underwriters. Any selling stockholders may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe the nature of any such relationship in the prospectus supplement, naming the underwriter or underwriters.

Offered shares may also be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, or otherwise, by one or more marketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for the selling stockholders. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreements, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Any person participating in the distribution of common stock registered under the registration statement that includes this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the applicable SEC rules and regulations, including, among others, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our common stock by any such person. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of our common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock. These restrictions may affect the marketability of our common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock.

In connection with any sale of our common stock by us or any selling shareholder pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, an underwriter may purchase and sell shares in the open market and may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with securities laws. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bidders to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of our common stock to be higher than it would otherwise be. Any underwriters may engage in these activities on any exchange or other market in which our common stock may be traded. If commenced, underwriters may discontinue these activities at any time.

Any underwriters and their affiliates may be customers of, engage in transactions with and perform services for, us, our subsidiaries and any selling shareholder in the ordinary course of business.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “JELD”.

The specific terms of the lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Selling Shareholders

The selling shareholders to be identified in one or more prospectus supplements may sell the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time to one or more purchasers. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares of our common stock:

14

Each selling shareholder may be deemed to be a statutory underwriter under the Securities Act. In addition, any broker-dealers who act in connection with the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

Broker-dealers engaged by a selling shareholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Such broker-dealers and any other participating broker-dealers or agents may, in connection with such sales, be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act. If a selling shareholder effects such transactions through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from such selling shareholder or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be less than or in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). Any discounts or commissions received by any such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, as well as profit on any resale of the shares, may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

15

From time to time, any selling shareholder may pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in some or all of the common stock owned by it. The pledgees, secured parties or persons to whom the shares have been hypothecated will, upon foreclosure, be deemed to be selling shareholders. The number of shares of a selling shareholder’s common stock offered under this prospectus will decrease as and when it takes such actions. The plan of distribution for that selling shareholder’s common stock will otherwise remain unchanged. In addition, a selling shareholder may, from time to time, sell short, and, in those instances, this prospectus may be delivered in connection with the short sales and the common stock offered under this prospectus may be used to cover short sales.

Any selling shareholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers and the broker-dealers may engage in short sales of our common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with such selling shareholder, including, without limitation, in connection with distributions of common stock by those broker-dealers. Any selling shareholder may enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that involve the delivery of common stock offered hereby to the broker-dealers, who may then resell or otherwise transfer such shares of common stock.

A selling shareholder that is an entity may elect to make a pro rata in-kind distribution of common stock to its members, partners or shareholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part by delivering a prospectus with a plan of distribution. Such members, partners or shareholders would thereby receive freely tradable shares of common stock pursuant to the distribution through a registration statement. To the extent a distributee is an affiliate of ours (or to the extent otherwise required by law), we may file a prospectus supplement in order to permit such distributee to use the prospectus to resell the common stock acquired in the distribution. A selling shareholder that is an individual may make gifts of common stock covered hereby. Such donees may use the prospectus to resell the common stock or, if required by law, we may file a prospectus supplement naming such donees.

We are not aware of any plans, arrangements or understandings between any selling shareholder and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of our common stock by any shareholder. There can be no assurance that any selling shareholders will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement forms a part. In addition, we cannot assure you that any selling shareholder will not transfer, devise or gift our common stock by other means not described in this prospectus.

If an underwriter is utilized in the sale of common stock being offered by a selling shareholder pursuant to this prospectus, an underwriting agreement will be executed with the underwriter at the time of sale of those shares of common stock. The specific terms of any lock-up provisions in respect of any given offering will be described in the underwriting agreement and in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We and the selling shareholders may enter agreements under which underwriters, broker-dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of our common stock may be entitled to indemnification by us and the selling shareholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, and to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be required to make.
