The undersigned acknowledges receipt of the Prospectus dated [ ], 2003 (the "Prospectus") of Euramax International, Inc. and Euramax International Holdings B.V. (together, the "Issuers") and this Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal"), which together constitute the Issuers' Offer to Exchange (the "Exchange Offer") $200,000,000 principal amount of their 8¹/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the "Exchange Notes"), which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to a Registration Statement of which the Prospectus is a part, for each $1,000 principal amount of their outstanding 8¹/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the "Old Notes"), of which $200,000,000 principal amount is outstanding, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus and this Letter of Transmittal. Other capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Prospectus.

For each Old Note accepted for exchange, the holder of such Old Note will receive an Exchange Note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered Old Note. Interest on the Exchange Notes will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Old Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or if no interest has been paid on the Old Notes, from August 6, 2003. Holders of Old Notes accepted for exchange will be deemed to have waived the right to receive any other payments or accrued interest on the Old Notes. The Issuers reserve the right, at any time or from time to time, to extend the Exchange Offer at their discretion, in which event the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the latest time and date to which the Exchange Offer is extended. The Issuers shall notify holders of the Old

Notes of any extension by means of a press release or other public announcement prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date.

This Letter of Transmittal is to be used by Holders if: (i) certificates representing Old Notes are to be physically delivered to the Exchange Agent herewith by Holders or (ii) tender of Old Notes is to be made by book-entry transfer to the Exchange Agent's account at The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Prospectus under "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering Old Notes" by any financial institution that is a participant in DTC and whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of Old Notes unless an agent's message is transmitted in lieu thereof. DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO DTC DOES NOT CONSTITUTE DELIVERY TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT.

The term "Holder" with respect to the Exchange Offer means any person: (i) in whose name Old Notes are registered on the books of the Issuers or any other person who has obtained a properly completed bond power from the registered Holder, or (ii) whose Old Notes are held of record by DTC (or its nominee) who desires to deliver such Old Notes by book-entry transfer at DTC. The undersigned has completed, executed and delivered this Letter of Transmittal to indicate the action the undersigned desires to take with respect to the Exchange Offer.

Holders of Old Notes that are tendering by book-entry transfer to the Exchange Agent's account at DTC can execute the tender through the DTC Automated Tender Offer Program ("ATOP"), for which the transaction will be eligible. DTC participants that are accepting the Exchange Offer must transmit their acceptance to DTC, which will verify the acceptance and execute a book-entry delivery to the Exchange Agent's DTC account. DTC will then send an agent's message to the Exchange Agent for its acceptance. DTC participants may also accept the Exchange Offer prior to the Expiration Date by submitting a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or agent's message relating thereto as described herein under Instruction 1, "Guaranteed Delivery Procedures."

The instructions included with this Letter of Transmittal must be followed. Questions and requests for assistance with respect to the procedures for tendering Old Notes or for additional copies of the Prospectus, this Letter of Transmittal or the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be directed to the Exchange Agent.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer, the undersigned hereby tenders to the Issuers the principal amount of Old Notes indicated above. Subject to and effective upon the acceptance for exchange of the principal amount of Old Notes tendered in accordance with this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Issuers all right, title and interest in and to the Old Notes tendered hereby. The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Exchange Agent its agent and attorney-in-fact (with full knowledge that the Exchange Agent also acts as the agent of the Issuers and as Trustee under the Indenture for the Old Notes and Exchange Notes) with respect to the tendered Old Notes with full power of substitution to (i) deliver certificates for such Old Notes to the Issuers, or transfer ownership of such Old Notes on the account books maintained by DTC and deliver all accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity to, or upon the order of, the Issuers and (ii) present such Old Notes for transfer on the books of the Issuers and receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Old Notes, all in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Exchange Offer. The power of attorney granted in this paragraph shall be deemed irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the Old Notes tendered hereby and that the Issuers will acquire good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claim, when the same are acquired by the Issuers. The undersigned hereby further represents that any Exchange Notes acquired in exchange for Old Notes tendered hereby will have been acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Holder receiving such Exchange Notes, whether or not such person is the Holder, that neither the Holder nor any such other person has any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of such Exchange Notes and that neither the Holder nor any such other person is an "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, of the Issuers or any of their subsidiaries.

The undersigned also acknowledges that this Exchange Offer is being made in reliance on an interpretation by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than any such holder that is an "affiliate" of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act), without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that such Exchange Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders' business and such holders have no arrangements or understandings with any person to participate in the distribution of such Exchange Notes. If the undersigned is not a broker-dealer, the undersigned represents that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, a distribution of Exchange Notes. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Exchange Agent or the Issuers to be necessary or desirable to complete the assignment, transfer and purchase of the Old Notes tendered hereby. All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred by this Letter of Transmittal shall survive the death, incapacity or dissolution of the undersigned and every obligation of the undersigned under this Letter of Transmittal shall be binding upon the undersigned's heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, trustees in bankruptcy or other legal representatives of the undersigned. This tender may be withdrawn only in accordance with the procedures set forth in "The Exchange Offer—Withdrawal Rights" section of the Prospectus.

For purposes of the Exchange Offer, the Issuers shall be deemed to have accepted validly tendered Old Notes when, as and if the Issuers have given oral (promptly confirmed in writing) or written notice thereof to the Exchange Agent.

If any tendered Old Notes are not accepted for exchange pursuant to the Exchange Offer for any reason, certificates for any such unaccepted Old Notes will be returned (except as noted below with respect to tenders through DTC), without expense, to the undersigned at the address shown below the undersigned's signature or at such different address as may be indicated under "Special Delivery Instructions" promptly after the Expiration Date.

The undersigned understands that tenders of Old Notes pursuant to the procedures described under the caption "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering Old Notes" in the Prospectus and in the instructions hereto will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Issuers upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Exchange Offer.

Unless otherwise indicated under "Special Issuance Instructions," please issue promptly the certificates representing the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Old Notes accepted for exchange and return any Old Notes not tendered or not accepted for exchange in the name(s) of the undersigned (or in either such event in the case of the Old Notes tendered through DTC, by credit to the undersigned's account at DTC). Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under "Special Delivery Instructions," please send the certificates representing the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Old Notes accepted for exchange and any certificates for Old Notes not tendered or not accepted for exchange (and accompanying documents, as appropriate) to the undersigned at the address shown below the undersigned's signature(s), unless, in either event, tender is being made through DTC. In the event that both "Special Issuance Instructions" and "Special Delivery Instructions" are completed, please issue the certificates representing the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Old Notes accepted for exchange and return any Old Notes not tendered or not accepted for exchange in the name(s) of, and send said certificates to, the person(s) so indicated. The undersigned recognizes that the Issuers have no obligation pursuant to the "Special Issuance Instructions" and "Special Delivery Instructions" to transfer any Old Notes from the name of the registered Holder(s) thereof if the Issuers do not accept for exchange any of the Old Notes so tendered.

Holders of Old Notes who wish to tender their Old Notes and (i) whose Old Notes are not immediately available or (ii) who cannot deliver their Old Notes, this Letter of Transmittal or any other documents required hereby to the Exchange Agent, or cannot complete the procedure for book-entry transfer, prior to the Expiration Date, may tender their Old Notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in the Prospectus under the caption "The Exchange Offer—Guaranteed Delivery Procedures."

This Letter of Transmittal is to be completed by Holders, either if certificates are to be forwarded herewith or if tenders are to be made pursuant to the procedures for delivery by book-entry transfer set forth in "The Exchange Offer—Book-Entry Transfer" section of the Prospectus unless an agent's message is transmitted in lieu thereof. Certificates for all physically tendered Old Notes, or Book-Entry Confirmation ("Book-Entry Confirmation" means a confirmation of a book entry transfer of Old Notes into the Exchange Agent's account at DTC), as the case may be, as well as a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or manually signed facsimile hereof) unless an agent's message is transmitted in lieu thereof and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Exchange Agent at one of the addresses set forth herein on or prior to the Expiration Date, or the tendering Holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth below. Old Notes tendered hereby must be in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

Holders whose certificates for Old Notes are not immediately available or who cannot deliver their certificates and all other required documents to the Exchange Agent on or prior to the Expiration Date, or who cannot complete the procedure for book-entry transfer on a timely basis, may tender their Old Notes pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in "The Exchange Offer—Guaranteed Delivery Procedures" section of the Prospectus.

See "The Exchange Offer" section in the Prospectus.

2. Tender by Holder. Only a Holder of Old Notes may tender such Old Notes in the Exchange Offer. Any beneficial holder of Old Notes who is not the registered Holder and who wishes to tender should arrange with the registered Holder to execute and deliver this Letter of Transmittal on his or her behalf or must, prior to completing and executing this Letter of Transmittal and delivering his or her Old Notes, either make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the Old Notes in such holder's name or obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered Holder.

3. Partial Tenders. Tenders of Old Notes will be accepted only in integral multiples of $1,000. If less than the entire principal amount of any Old Notes is tendered, the tendering Holder should fill in the principal amount tendered in the fourth column of the box entitled "Description of 8¹/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (Old Notes)" above. The entire principal amount of Old Notes delivered to the Exchange Agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated. If the entire principal amount of a Holder's Old Notes is not tendered, then Old Notes for the principal amount of Old Notes not tendered and a certificate or certificates representing Exchange Notes issued in exchange for any Old Notes accepted for exchange will be sent to the Holder at his or her registered address (unless a different address is provided in the appropriate box on this Letter of Transmittal) promptly after the Old Notes are accepted for exchange.

4. Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal; Endorsements and Powers of Attorney; Guarantee of Signatures. If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered Holder of the Old Notes tendered hereby, the signature must correspond exactly with the name as written on the face of the certificates without any change whatsoever.

If any tendered Old Notes are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

If any tendered Old Notes are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate copies of this Letter of Transmittal as there are different registrations of certificates.

When this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered Holder(s) of the Old Notes specified herein and tendered hereby, no endorsements of certificates or separate bond powers are required. If, however, the Exchange Notes are to be issued, or any Old Notes not tendered or not accepted for exchange are to be reissued, to a person or persons other than the registered Holder(s), then endorsements of any certificate(s) transmitted hereby or separate bond powers are required. Signatures on such certificate(s) or power(s) must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered Holder(s) of any certificate(s) specified herein, such certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate bond powers or powers of attorney, in each case signed exactly as the name or names of the registered Holder(s) appear(s) on the certificate(s) and signatures on such certificate(s) or power(s) must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

If this Letter of Transmittal or any certificates, bond powers or powers of attorney are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing and, unless waived by the Issuers, proper evidence satisfactory to the Issuers of their authority to so act must be submitted.

Endorsements on certificates for Old Notes or signatures on bond powers or powers of attorney required by this Instruction 4 must be guaranteed by a firm which is a participant in a recognized signature guarantee medallion program (an "Eligible Institution").

Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution unless the Old Notes are tendered (i) by a registered Holder of Old Notes (which term, for purposes of the Exchange Offer, includes any DTC participant whose name appears on a security position listing as the Holder of such Old Notes) who has not completed the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on this Letter of Transmittal, or (ii) for the account of an Eligible Institution.

5. Special Issuance and Delivery Instructions. Tendering Holders should indicate, in the applicable box or boxes, the name and address to which Exchange Notes or substitute Old Notes not tendered or not accepted for exchange are to be issued or sent, if different from the name and address of the person signing this Letter of Transmittal (or in the case of a tender of Old Notes through DTC, if different from

DTC). In the case of issuance in a different name, the taxpayer identification or social security number of the person named must also be indicated. Holders tendering Old Notes by book-entry transfer may request that Exchange Notes issued in exchange for Old Notes accepted for exchange or Old Notes not tendered or accepted for exchange be credited to such account maintained at DTC as such Holder may designate hereon. If no such instructions are given, such Exchange Notes or Old Notes not exchanged will be returned to the name and address of the person signing this Letter of Transmittal.

6. Tax Identification Number. A Holder whose Old Notes are accepted for exchange is required to provide the Issuers with such Holder's correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN") on Substitute Form W-9 provided below, and to certify whether the Holder is subject to federal backup withholding and that the Holder is a United States person. If the Issuer is not provided with the correct TIN, the Holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, if the Holder does not furnish the Issuer with a TIN in the required manner, the Issuer is required to withhold a percentage (currently 28%) of any reportable payment, if any, made to a Holder of Old Notes pursuant to this Exchange Offer (as well any future reportable payment made to a Holder with respect to Exchange Notes). Certain Holders are not subject to these federal backup withholding requirements. A non-United States person may qualify as an exempt recipient by submitting to the Issuer a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are exempt.

See "Important Tax Information" and the enclosed Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9 below for additional instructions.

7. Transfer Taxes. The Issuers will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer. If, however, certificates representing Exchange Notes or Old Notes not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person(s) other than the registered Holder(s) of the Old Notes tendered hereby, or if tendered Old Notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this Letter of Transmittal, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered Holder(s) or on any other person(s)) will be payable by the tendering Holder(s). If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted herewith, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering Holder(s).

Except as provided in this Instruction 7, it will not be necessary for transfer tax stamps to be affixed to the Old Notes listed in this Letter of Transmittal.

8. Waiver of Conditions. The Issuers reserve the absolute right to amend, waive or modify conditions to the Exchange Offer in the case of any Old Notes tendered (and to refuse to do so). Any waiver to the Exchange Offer will apply to all Old Notes tendered.

9. No Conditional Transfers. No alternative, conditional, irregular or contingent tenders will be accepted. All tendering Holders of Old Notes, by execution of this Letter of Transmittal, shall waive any right to receive notice of the acceptance of their Old Notes for exchange.

Neither the Issuers, the Exchange Agent nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of Old Notes, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

10. Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Old Notes. Any tendering Holder whose Old Notes have been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed should contact the Exchange Agent at one of the addresses indicated herein for further instructions.

11. Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies. Questions and requests for assistance with respect to the procedures for tendering Old Notes or additional copies of the Prospectus, this Letter of Transmittal, the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or the "Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number" on Substitute Form W-9 may be directed to the Exchange Agent at one of the addresses specified in the Prospectus.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION

Under current United States federal income tax law, a Holder exchanging Old Notes is required to provide the Issuer with such Holder's correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN") (generally, a social security number, individual taxpayer identification number, or employer identification number) on Substitute Form W-9 provided below, and to certify whether the Holder is subject to federal backup withholding and that the Holder is a United States person. If the Issuer is not provided with the correct TIN, the Holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, if (a) the Holder does not furnish the Issuer with a TIN in the required manner, (b) the IRS notifies the Issuer that the TIN provided is incorrect, or (c) the Holder is required but fails to certify that the Holder is not subject to backup withholding, federal backup withholding will apply. If federal backup withholding applies, the Issuer or other payer is required to withhold a percentage (currently 28%) of any reportable payment made to a Holder of Old Notes pursuant to this Exchange Offer (as well any future reportable payment made to a Holder with respect to Exchange Notes). Backup withholding is not an additional federal income tax. Rather, the federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the IRS.

If the Holder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future, such Holder should write "Applied For" in the space provided for the TIN in Part I of the Substitute Form W-9, sign and date the Substitute Form W-9, and complete the Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number below. If "Applied For" is written in Part I and the Issuer is not provided with a TIN within 60 days, the Issuer will remit any previously withheld amounts to the IRS as backup withholding.

Certain Holders (including, among others, all corporations and certain non-United States persons) are not subject to these federal backup withholding requirements. Exempt Holders other than non-United States persons should indicate their exempt status on Substitute Form W-9 by furnishing their TIN, writing "Exempt" on the face of the form, and signing and dating the form. A non-United States person must provide certification of foreign status as set forth below. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are exempt.

A non-United States person may qualify as an exempt recipient by submitting to the Issuer a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN, provided below, signed under penalty of perjury, certifying that the person is a non-United Stated person and is the beneficial owner of any payment received. Only the beneficial owner of a reportable payment subject to federal backup withholding should use Form W-8BEN. In general, a person is not a beneficial owner of income if the person is receiving the income as nominee, agent, or custodian, or to the extent the person is a conduit whose participation in the transaction is disregarded. Certain other foreign persons, such as a withholding foreign partnership, withholding foreign trust, or an intermediary, should also not use Form W-8BEN, but should use an alternate form of a Form W-8. Consult your tax advisor for more information. Failure to provide Form W-8BEN may result in withholding at a 30% rate (foreign person withholding) or federal backup withholding (currently 28%).
