Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies American Woodmark Corporation ("American Woodmark," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") manufactures and distributes kitchen, bath, and home organization products for the remodeling and new home construction markets. Its products are sold on a national basis directly to home centers, builders and through a network of independent dealers and distributors. The Company operates within a single reportable segment primarily within the U.S.; long-lived assets and sales outside the U.S. are not significant. The following is a description of the Company's significant accounting policies: Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Revenue Recognition : Our principal performance obligations are the sale of kitchen, bath, and home organization products. The Company recognizes revenue as control of our products is transferred to our customers, which is at the time of shipment or upon delivery based on the contractual terms with our customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods to our customers. Payment terms on our product sales normally range from 30 to 90 days. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that we collect are excluded from revenue. The expected costs associated with our contractual warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note K — Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion. When revenue is recognized, we record estimates to reduce revenue for customer programs and incentives in order to determine the amount of consideration the Company will ultimately be entitled to receive. Customer programs and incentives are considered variable consideration, and include price discounts, volume-based incentives, promotions, and cooperative advertising. The Company includes variable consideration in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the variable consideration is resolved. This determination is made based upon known customer programs and incentive offerings at the time of sale, and expected sales volume forecasts as it relates to our volume-based incentives. This determination is updated each reporting period. In addition, for certain customer program incentives, we receive an identifiable benefit (goods or services) in exchange for the consideration given and record the associated expenditure in selling, general and administrative expenses. We account for shipping and handling costs that occur before the customer has obtained control of a product as a fulfillment activity rather than as a promised service. These costs are classified within costs of sales and distribution. Cost of Sales and Distribution : Cost of sales and distribution includes all costs associated with the manufacture and distribution of the Company's products including the costs of shipping and handling. Advertising Costs : Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 were $34.1 million, $33.9 million, and $38.9 million, respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents : Cash in excess of operating requirements is invested in money market accounts which are carried at cost (which approximates fair value). The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Inventories : Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Inventory costs are determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method and for certain subsidiaries by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. The LIFO cost reserve is determined in the aggregate for inventory and is applied as a reduction to inventories determined on the FIFO method. FIFO inventory cost approximates replacement cost. Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment is stated on the basis of cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 15 to 30 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 12 years for machinery and equipment. Assets under financing leases are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the related lease. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. Goodwill : Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Company does not amortize goodwill but evaluates for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In accordance with the accounting standards, an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If after such assessment an entity concludes that the asset is not more likely than not impaired, the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it is required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test, and if impaired, the associated assets must be written down to fair value. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. Other Intangible Assets: Intangible assets consist of customer relationship intangibles and trademarks. The Company amortizes the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to six years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. Promotional Displays : The Company invests in promotional displays in retail stores to demonstrate product features, product and quality specifications, and to serve as a training tool for retail kitchen designers. The Company invests in these long-lived productive assets to provide the aforementioned benefits. The Company's investment in promotional displays is carried at cost less applicable amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method on an individual display basis over periods of 24 to 60 months (the estimated period of benefit). Promotional display amortization expense for fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $10.0 million, $8.2 million, and $6.4 million, respectively, and is included in selling and marketing expenses. Income Taxes: The Company accounts for deferred income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which these items are expected to reverse. At each reporting date, the Company evaluates the need for a valuation allowance to adjust deferred tax assets and liabilities to an amount that more likely than not will be realized. Pensions : Prior to April 30, 2020, the Company had two non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering many of the Company's employees hired prior to April 30, 2012. Effective April 30, 2012, the Company froze all future benefit accruals under the Company's hourly and salaried defined benefit pension plans. Effective April 30, 2020, these plans were merged into one plan. The Company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of its defined benefit pension plans, measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation, in its consolidated balance sheets. The Company also recognizes the actuarial gains and losses and the prior service costs, credits and transition costs as a component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax. On November 16, 2020 the Company filed an application with the Internal Revenue Service to terminate the pension plan with an effective date of December 31, 2020. Stock-Based Compensation: The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value over the requisite service period. The Company records the expense for stock-based compensation awards subject to performance-based criteria vesting over the remaining service period when the Company determines that achievement of the performance criteria is probable. The Company evaluates when the achievement of performance-based criteria is probable based on the expected satisfaction of the performance criteria at each reporting date. Self Insurance: The Company is self-insured for certain costs related to employee medical coverage, workers' compensation liability, general liability, auto liability, and property insurance. The Company maintains stop-loss coverage with third-party insurers to limit total exposure. The Company establishes a liability at each balance sheet date based on estimates for a variety of factors that influence the Company's ultimate cost. In the event that actual experience is substantially different from the estimates, the financial results for the period could be adversely affected. The Company believes that the methodologies used to estimate insurance liabilities are an accurate reflection of the liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets. Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts: In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to risk from adverse fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company manages these risks through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company recognizes its outstanding forward contracts in the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. The Company does not designate the forward contracts as accounting hedges. The changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are recorded in other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of income. At April 30, 2021, the Company held no forward contracts. Use of Estimates : The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements : In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued a new standard for leases, ASC 842, which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The standard provides for the option to elect a package of practical expedients upon adoption. The Company adopted the standard on May 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach and elected the package of practical expedients that allows it to forgo reassessment of lease classification for leases that have already commenced. The Company also elected the practical expedients to the new standard without restating comparative prior period financial information and to not recognize ROU assets and liabilities for operating leases with shorter than 12-month terms. On May 1, 2019, the Company recognized operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of $80.4 million. The new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or opening retained earnings, or on its debt covenant calculations. ASC 842 also requires entities to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative information regarding the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Such disclosures are included in Note N — Leases . In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes," which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods . The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning May 1, 2021. The Company has reviewed the provisions of this new pronouncement and the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have an impact on financial position or results of operations. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and can be adopted as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company has identified loans and other financial instruments that are directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements . |

The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a $100 million revolving loan facility with a $25 million sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit, a $250 million initial term loan facility and a $250 million delayed draw term loan facility. The Company borrowed the entire $250 million under the initial term loan facility, the entire $250 million under the delayed draw term loan facility and approximately $50 million under the revolving loan facility in connection with the acquisition of RSI Home Products, Inc. ("RSI") and the refinancing of certain senior notes assumed from RSI (the "RSI Notes"). The facilities under the Prior Credit Agreement were scheduled to mature on December 29, 2022. On April 22, 2021, the Company amended and restated the Prior Credit Agreement. The amended and restated credit agreement (the "A&R Credit Agreement") provides for a $500 million revolving loan facility with a $50 million sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit (the "Revolving Facility") and a $250 million term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility"). Also on April 22, 2021, the Company borrowed the entire $250 million under the Term Loan Facility and approximately $264 million under the Revolving Facility to fund, in part, the repayment in full of the amounts then outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and the redemption of the Senior Notes (as defined below). The Company is required to repay the Term Loan Facility in specified quarterly installments. The Revolving Facility and Term Loan Facility mature on April 22, 2026. As of April 30, 2021, $250 million was outstanding on the Term Loan Facility as compared to a total of $244 million outstanding on the term loans under the Prior Credit Agreement as of April 30, 2020. As of April 30, 2021, $264 million was outstanding under the Revolving Facility as compared to no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility under the Prior Credit Agreement as of April 30, 2020. Outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility were $8.3 million as of April 30, 2021, leaving approximately $227.7 million in available capacity under the Revolving Facility as of April 30, 2021. The outstanding balances noted above approximate fair value as the facilities have a floating interest rate. Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility bear interest based on a fluctuating rate measured by reference to either, at the Company's option, a base rate plus an applicable margin or LIBOR plus an applicable margin, with the applicable margin being determined by reference to the Company's then-current "Secured Net Leverage Ratio." The Company also incurs a quarterly commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility during the applicable quarter at a rate per annum also determined by reference to the Company's then-current "Secured Net Leverage Ratio." In addition, a letter of credit fee accrues on the face amount of any outstanding letters of credit at a per annum rate equal to the applicable margin on LIBOR loans, payable quarterly in arrears. As of April 30, 2021, the applicable margin with respect to base rate loans and LIBOR loans was 0.25% and 1.25%, respectively, and the commitment fee was 0.125%. The A&R Credit Agreement includes provisions providing for the transition from LIBOR to a replacement benchmark upon the occurrence of certain events. The Company does not currently expect any such transition to materially impact its financing costs. The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain financial covenants that require the Company to maintain (i) a "Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio" of no less than 2.00 to 1.00 and (ii) a "Total Net Leverage Ratio" of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00, subject, in each case, to certain limited exceptions. The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain additional covenants, including negative covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, create additional liens on its assets, make certain investments, dispose of its assets, or engage in a merger or other similar transaction or engage in transactions with affiliates, subject, in each case, to the various exceptions and conditions described in the A&R Credit Agreement. The negative covenants further restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to make certain restricted payments, including, in the case of the Company, the payment of dividends and the repurchase of common stock, in certain limited circumstances. As of April 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants included in the A&R Credit Agreement. The Company's obligations under the A&R Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries and the obligations of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries under the A&R Credit Agreement and their guarantees, respectively, are secured by a pledge of substantially all of their respective personal property. The Senior Notes On February 12, 2018, the Company issued $350 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes") and utilized the proceeds, together with the proceeds from the delayed draw term loan under the Prior Credit Agreement, to refinance the RSI Notes. The Senior Notes were guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries and were scheduled to mature on March 15, 2026. On April 26, 2021, the Company redeemed in full the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 102.438% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The Company recognized a net loss on debt modification related to the A&R Credit Agreement and the redemption of the Senior Notes of $13.8 million, which is included in other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of income. Financing Lease Obligations The Company has various financing leases with interest rates between 2.0% and 4.5%. The leases require monthly payments and expire by March 15, 2026. The outstanding amounts owed as of April 30, 2021 and 2020 were $5.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Other Long-term Debt On January 25, 2016, the Company entered into a New Markets Tax Credit ("NMTC") financing agreement, pursuant to section 45D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Kentucky Revised Statutes Sections 141.432 through 141.434, to take advantage of a tax credit related to working capital and capital improvements at its Monticello, Kentucky facility. This financing agreement was structured with unrelated third party financial institutions (the "Investors"), their wholly-owned investment funds ("Investment Funds") and their wholly-owned community development entities ("CDEs") in connection with our participation in qualified transactions under the NMTC program. In exchange for substantially all of the benefits derived from the tax credits, the Investors made a contribution of $2.3 million, net of syndication fees, to the project. Upon closing the transaction, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company provided a $4.3 million loan receivable to the Investment Funds, which is included in other long term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company also entered into loan agreements aggregating $6.6 million payable to the CDEs sponsoring the project. The loans have a term of 30 years with an aggregate interest rate of approximately 1.2%. As of April 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had drawn $6.7 million of the loan proceeds, which is included in long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The NMTC is subject to recapture for a period of seven years, the compliance period. During the compliance period, the Company is required to comply with various regulations and contractual provisions that apply to the NMTC arrangement. We do not anticipate any credit recaptures will be required in connection with this arrangement. This transaction also includes a put/call feature which becomes enforceable at the end of the compliance period whereby we may be obligated or entitled to repurchase the Investors' interest in the Investment Funds. The value attributable to the put/call is nominal. Direct costs of $0.3 million incurred in structuring the financing arrangement are deferred and will be recognized as expense over the term of the loans (30 years). |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Shareholders' Equity and Share-based Payments | Stock-Based Compensation The Company has had two types of stock-based compensation awards in effect for its employees and directors. The Company issued stock options until fiscal 2015 and has issued restricted stock units ("RSUs") since fiscal 2010. Total compensation expense related to stock-based awards for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $4.6 million, $4.0 million, and $3.0 million, respectively. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs net of an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The Company estimates the forfeiture rates based upon its historical experience. Stock Incentive Plans At April 30, 2021, the Company had RSU awards outstanding under two different plans: (1) 2016 employee stock incentive plan; and (2) 2015 non-employee directors equity ownership plan. As of April 30, 2021, there were 632,666 shares of common stock available for future stock-based compensation awards under the Company's stock incentive plans. Methodology Assumptions For purposes of determining the fair value of RSUs, the Company uses the closing stock price of its common stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the date of grant. The fair value of the Company's RSU awards is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the RSUs to the extent the Company believes it is probable the related performance criteria, if any, will be met. Stock Option Activity Stock options granted and outstanding under each of the Company's plans vest evenly over a three The Company did not grant stock options during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2021, 2020, and 2019.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Employee Benefit and Retirement Plans | Employee Benefit and Retirement Plans Retirement Savings Plans Under the American Woodmark Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan"), all employees who are at least 18 years old and have been employed by the Company for at least six consecutive months are eligible to receive Company stock through a discretionary profit-sharing contribution and a 401(k) matching contribution based upon the employee's contribution to the Plan. Discretionary profit-sharing contributions ranging from 0-5% of net income, based on predetermined net income levels of the Company, may be made annually in the form of Company stock. The Company recognized expenses for profit-sharing contributions of $2.9 million, $3.7 million, and $3.8 million in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. The Company matches 100% of an employee's annual 401(k) contributions to the Plan up to 4% of annual compensation. On January 1, 2019, the Plan merged with the RSI Plan to transfer all assets of the RSI Plan into the Plan. The expense for 401(k) matching contributions for both plans was $11.9 million, $10.1 million, and $9.9 million, in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Pension Benefits Prior to April 30, 2020, the Company had two defined benefit pension plans covering many of the Company's employees hired prior to April 30, 2012. Effective April 30, 2012, the Company froze all future benefit accruals under the Company's defined benefit pension plans. Effective April 30, 2020, these plans were merged into one plan and the plan name was changed to the American Woodmark Corporation Employee Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan"). The Pension Plan provides defined benefits based on years of service and final average earnings (for salaried employees) or benefit rate (for hourly employees). On November 16, 2020 the Company filed an application with the Internal Revenue Service to terminate the Pension Plan with an effective date of December 31, 2020 (the "Plan Termination Date"), in a standard termination and the Company expects to incur approximately $1.6 million to terminate the Pension Plan, $0.4 million of which was incurred in fiscal 2021. In connection with the Pension Plan termination and in addition to the Pension Plan termination costs, the Company may be required to make an additional funding contribution to the Pension Plan in order to ensure the Pension Plan is fully funded on a termination basis as of the Benefit Distribution Date, with the amount of such contribution still to be determined. The Benefit Distribution Date will be determined once the Company receives approval from certain regulatory agencies. The additional funding contribution is expected to be funded from cash on hand and the amount will vary depending on the lump sum distribution take rate and the interest rate on the Benefit Distribution Date. Included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at April 30, 2021 is $73.1 million ($54.6 million net of tax) related to net unrecognized actuarial losses that have not yet been recognized in net periodic pension benefit costs. The Company expects to recognize $1.2 million ($0.9 million net of tax) in net actuarial losses in net periodic pension benefit costs during fiscal 2022. The Company uses an April 30 measurement date for its Pension Plan. The following provides a reconciliation of benefit obligations, plan assets and funded status of the Company's non-contributory Pension Plan as of April 30: APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 CHANGE IN PROJECTED BENEFIT OBLIGATION Projected benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 191,184 $ 168,788 Interest cost 4,662 5,974 Actuarial gains 6,759 22,293 Benefits paid (6,068) (5,871) Projected benefit obligation at end of year $ 196,537 $ 191,184 CHANGE IN PLAN ASSETS Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year $ 190,743 $ 169,471 Actual return on plan assets 8,877 26,674 Company contributions — 469 Benefits paid (6,068) (5,871) Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ 193,552 $ 190,743 Funded status of the plan $ (2,985) $ (441) The accumulated benefit obligation for the Pension Plan was $196.5 million and $191.2 million at April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 2019 COMPONENTS OF NET PERIODIC PENSION BENEFIT COST Interest cost $ 4,662 $ 5,974 $ 6,269 Expected return on plan assets (8,430) (8,327) (8,509) Recognized net actuarial loss 1,761 1,692 1,648 Pension benefit cost $ (2,007) $ (661) $ (592) The components of net periodic pension benefit cost do not include service costs or prior service costs due to the Pension Plan being frozen. Actuarial Assumptions : The discount rate at April 30 was used to measure the year-end benefit obligations and the earnings effects for the subsequent year. Actuarial assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and earnings effects for the Pension Plan follows: FISCAL YEARS ENDED APRIL 30 2021 2020 WEIGHTED-AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS TO DETERMINE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS Discount rate 2.80 % 3.16 % FISCAL YEARS ENDED APRIL 30 2021 2020 2019 WEIGHTED-AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS TO DETERMINE NET PERIODIC PENSION BENEFIT COST Discount rate 3.16 % 4.02 % 4.18% Expected return on plan assets 3.25 % 5.0 % 5.5 % The Company bases the discount rate on a current yield curve developed from a portfolio of high-quality fixed-income investments with maturities consistent with the projected benefit payout period. The long-term rate of return on assets is determined based on consideration of historical and forward-looking returns and the current and expected asset allocation strategy. The method used to determine the service and interest costs is known as the spot rate approach, under which individual spot rates along the yield curve that correspond with the timing of each benefit payment are used. In developing the expected long-term rate of return assumption for the assets of the Pension Plan, the Company evaluated input from its third party pension plan asset managers, including their review of asset class return expectations and long-term inflation assumptions. The Company amortizes experience gains and losses, as well as the effects of changes in actuarial assumptions and plan provisions, over the average remaining lifetime of employees expected to receive benefits under the Pension Plan. Contributions: The Company funds the Pension Plan in amounts sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements under applicable employee benefit and tax laws plus additional amounts the Company deems appropriate. The Company expects to contribute $2.5 million to its Pension Plan in fiscal 2022. The Company made no contributions to its Pension Plan in fiscal 2021 and made contributions of $0.5 million in fiscal 2020. Estimated Future Benefit Payments : The following benefit payments are expected to be paid: FISCAL YEAR BENEFIT PAYMENTS (in thousands) 2022 $ 199,685 Plan Assets: Pension assets by major category and the type of fair value measurement as of April 30, 2021 and 2020 are presented in the following tables: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AT APRIL 30, 2021 (in thousands) TOTAL QUOTED PRICES IN ACTIVE MARKETS (LEVEL 1) SIGNIFICANT OBSERVABLE INPUTS (LEVEL 2) SIGNIFICANT UNOBSERVABLE INPUTS (LEVEL 3) Cash Equivalents $ 80,524 $ 80,524 $ — $ — Fixed Income Funds: Investment Grade Fixed Income 113,028 113,028 — — Total plan assets 193,552 193,552 $ — $ — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AT APRIL 30, 2020 (in thousands) TOTAL QUOTED PRICES IN ACTIVE MARKETS (LEVEL 1) SIGNIFICANT OBSERVABLE INPUTS (LEVEL 2) SIGNIFICANT UNOBSERVABLE INPUTS (LEVEL 3) Cash Equivalents $ 490 $ 490 $ — $ — Equity Funds: US Equity 37,569 37,569 — — International Equity 24,578 24,578 — Fixed Income Funds: Investment Grade Fixed Income 128,106 128,106 — — Total plan assets $ 190,743 $ 190,743 $ — $ — Investment Strategy: The Company has established formal investment policies for the assets associated with its Pension Plan. The objectives of the investment strategies include preservation of capital and long-term growth of capital while avoiding excessive risk. Target allocation percentages are established at an asset class level by the Company's Pension Committee. Target allocation ranges are guidelines, not limitations, and the Pension Committee may approve allocations above or below a target range. During a period of uncertainty in the equity and fixed income markets, the Pension Committee may suspend the Target Asset Allocation and manage the investment mix as it sees reasonable, prudent and in the best interest of the plans to better protect the value of the plan assets.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") was signed into law in March 2020. The CARES Act lifts certain deduction limitations originally imposed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "2017 Tax Act"). Among other provisions, the CARES Act makes qualified improvement property generally eligible for 15-year cost-recovery and 100% bonus depreciation. In addition, the Consolidated Appropriations Act (the "2021 Tax Act") enacted a temporary exception to the limitation for meals and entertainment paid or incurred after December 31, 2020. This and the CARES Act provisions applicable to the Company have been applied to the current year ending April 30, 2021. Additionally, the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020 (the "2020 Tax Act") was signed into law December 27, 2020 and provides a temporary exception to the 50% business deduction for certain business meals. The tax effects of the 2020 Tax Act to business meals are not significant and have been recognized in the current period. Income tax expense was comprised of the following: FISCAL YEARS ENDED APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 2019 CURRENT Federal $ 25,683 $ 29,072 $ 25,649 State 5,639 7,581 8,231 Foreign 1,018 533 1,125 Total current expense 32,340 37,186 35,005 DEFERRED Federal (11,426) (7,167) (4,498) State (2,039) (4,190) (3,266) Foreign (203) (142) (41) Total deferred benefit (13,668) (11,499) (7,805) Total expense 18,672 25,687 27,200 Other comprehensive income (loss) (1,156) (573) 190 Total comprehensive income tax expense $ 17,516 $ 25,114 $ 27,390 The Company's effective income tax rate varied from the federal statutory rate as follows: FISCAL YEARS ENDED APRIL 30 2021 2020 2019 Federal statutory rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 21.0 % Effect of: Federal income tax credits (1.2) % (0.9) % (1.4) % Stock compensation 0.2 (0.1) (0.5) Effect of 2017 Tax Act — — (1.1) Meals and entertainment 0.1 0.3 0.3 Valuation allowance for deferred taxes — 0.7 0.6 Foreign 0.6 0.4 0.8 Other 0.2 0.7 1.2 Total (0.1) % 1.1 % (0.1) % Effective federal income tax rate 20.9 % 22.1 % 20.9 % State income taxes, net of federal tax effect 3.2 3.4 3.6 Effective income tax rate 24.1 % 25.5 % 24.5 % The significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows: APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets: Accounts receivable $ 1,781 $ 1,730 Pension benefits 815 — Inventory 692 — Product liability 1,321 862 Employee benefits 5,746 5,189 Tax credit carryforwards 5,433 4,995 Operating leases 32,975 33,258 Other 2,086 4,330 Gross deferred tax assets, before valuation allowance 50,849 50,364 Valuation allowance (4,914) (4,415) Gross deferred tax assets, after valuation allowance 45,935 45,949 Deferred tax liabilities: Inventory — 125 Depreciation 22,116 24,147 Intangibles 29,123 40,677 Operating leases 31,320 32,325 Other 606 695 Gross deferred tax liabilities 83,165 97,969 Net deferred tax liability $ 37,230 $ 52,020 We have not recorded deferred income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. Undistributed earnings that are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations are not significant as of April 30, 2021. The Company recorded a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets for certain state investment tax credit ("ITC") carryforwards and foreign tax credit ("FTC") carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, after considering all positive and negative evidence, it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company determined that there will not be sufficient foreign source income to fully utilize the current year and carry forward FTCs. Therefore, the Company updated the valuation allowance for the current year activity of $0.5 million related to FTCs. The gross amount of state tax credit carryforwards related to state ITCs as of April 30, 2021 and 2020 was $3.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. These credits expire in various years beginning in fiscal 2028. Net of the federal impact and related valuation allowance, the Company recorded $0.5 million and $0.6 million of deferred tax assets related to these credits as of April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company accounts for ITCs under the deferral method, under which the tax benefit from the ITC is deferred and amortized into income tax expense over the book life of the related property. As of April 30, 2021 and 2020, a deferred credit balance of $0.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The gross amount of foreign tax credit carryforwards as of April 30, 2021 and 2020 is $1.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, which begin to expire in fiscal 2029. The following table summarizes the activity related to unrecognized tax benefits, excluding the federal tax benefit of state tax deductions: APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 Change in Unrecognized Tax Benefits Balance at beginning of year $ 2,305 $ 2,240 Additions based on tax positions related to the current year 115 65 Reductions for tax positions of prior years settlements (929) — Balance at end of year $ 1,491 $ 2,305 |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters The Company is involved in suits and claims in the normal course of business, including without limitation product liability and general liability claims, and claims pending before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company consults with its legal counsel to ascertain the reasonable likelihood that such claims may result in a loss. As required by ASC Topic 450, "Contingencies" ("ASC 450"), the Company categorizes the various suits and claims into three categories according to their likelihood for resulting in potential loss: those that are probable, those that are reasonably possible and those that are deemed to be remote. Where losses are deemed to be probable and estimable, accruals are made. Where losses are deemed to be reasonably possible, a range of loss estimates is determined and considered for disclosure. In determining these loss range estimates, the Company considers known values of similar claims and consultation with independent counsel. The Company believes that the aggregate range of loss stemming from the various suits and asserted and unasserted claims which were deemed to be either probable or reasonably possible is not material as of April 30, 2021. Product Warranty The Company estimates outstanding warranty costs based on the historical relationship between warranty claims and revenues. The warranty accrual is reviewed monthly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation based on the anticipated expenditures over the balance of the obligation period. Adjustments are made when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates. Warranty claims are generally made within two months of the original shipment date. The following is a reconciliation of the Company's warranty liability: APRIL 30 (in thousands) 2021 2020 PRODUCT WARRANTY RESERVE Beginning balance $ 3,753 $ 4,616 Accrual for warranties 21,247 21,886 Settlements (19,751) (22,749) Ending balance at fiscal year end $ 5,249 $ 3,753 |

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | |
Credit Concentration | Credit Concentration Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions and such balances may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on cash. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of each customer's financial condition and generally collateral is not required. The Company's customers operate in the new home construction and home remodeling markets. The Company maintains an allowance for bad debt based upon management's evaluation and judgment of potential net loss. The allowance is estimated based upon historical experience, the effects of current developments and economic conditions and of each customer's current and anticipated financial condition. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated. Any resulting adjustments to the allowance are reflected in current operating results. At April 30, 2021, the Company's two largest customers, Customers A and B, represented 34.3% and 22.1% of the Company's gross customer receivables, respectively. At April 30, 2020, Customers A and B represented 26.4% and 22.9% of the Company's gross customer receivables, respectively.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company implemented nationwide reductions in force, which were substantially completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and first quarter of fiscal 2021. During fiscal 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring charges, net of $1.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to these reductions in force, which were primarily severance and separation costs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company implemented a nationwide reduction in force. Severance and outplacement charges relating to the reduction in force totaled approximately $1.8 million and the reduction in force was substantially completed during fiscal 2019. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company recognized total pre-tax restructuring charges of $5.8 million, $18,000, and $2.0 million, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company utilizes the hierarchy of fair value measurements to classify certain of its assets and liabilities based upon the following definitions: Level 1 – Investments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company's cash equivalents are invested in money market funds, mutual funds and certificates of deposit. The Company's mutual fund investment assets represent contributions made and invested on behalf of the Company's named executive officers in a supplementary employee retirement plan. Level 2 – Investments with observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Investments with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis. The fair value measurement of assets held by the Company's defined benefit pension plans is discussed in Note I. The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, marketable securities and other investments; accounts receivable and accounts payable; and short- and long-term debt. The carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable and payable and short-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these items. The forward contracts were marked to market and therefore represent fair value. The fair values of these contracts are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. The following table summarizes the fair value of assets and liabilities that are recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2021 and 2020 at fair value on a recurring basis: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AS OF APRIL 30, 2021 (in thousands) LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 ASSETS: Mutual funds $ 642 $ — $ — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AS OF APRIL 30, 2020 (in thousands) LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 ASSETS: Mutual funds $ 773 $ — $ — LIABILITIES: Foreign exchange forward contracts $ — $ (1,102) $ — |

Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition : Our principal performance obligations are the sale of kitchen, bath, and home organization products. The Company recognizes revenue as control of our products is transferred to our customers, which is at the time of shipment or upon delivery based on the contractual terms with our customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods to our customers. Payment terms on our product sales normally range from 30 to 90 days. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that we collect are excluded from revenue. The expected costs associated with our contractual warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note K — Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion. When revenue is recognized, we record estimates to reduce revenue for customer programs and incentives in order to determine the amount of consideration the Company will ultimately be entitled to receive. Customer programs and incentives are considered variable consideration, and include price discounts, volume-based incentives, promotions, and cooperative advertising. The Company includes variable consideration in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the variable consideration is resolved. This determination is made based upon known customer programs and incentive offerings at the time of sale, and expected sales volume forecasts as it relates to our volume-based incentives. This determination is updated each reporting period. In addition, for certain customer program incentives, we receive an identifiable benefit (goods or services) in exchange for the consideration given and record the associated expenditure in selling, general and administrative expenses. We account for shipping and handling costs that occur before the customer has obtained control of a product as a fulfillment activity rather than as a promised service. These costs are classified within costs of sales and distribution. |
Cost of Sales and Distribution | Cost of Sales and Distribution : Cost of sales and distribution includes all costs associated with the manufacture and distribution of the Company's products including the costs of shipping and handling. |
Advertising Costs | Advertising Costs: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Investments in Certificates of Deposit | Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash in excess of operating requirements is invested in money market accounts which are carried at cost (which approximates fair value). The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. |
Inventories | Inventories: Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Inventory costs are determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method and for certain subsidiaries by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment is stated on the basis of cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 15 to 30 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 12 years for machinery and equipment. Assets under financing leases are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the related lease. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill : Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. The Company does not amortize goodwill but evaluates for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In accordance with the accounting standards, an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. If after such assessment an entity concludes that the asset is not more likely than not impaired, the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it is required to determine the fair value of the asset using a quantitative impairment test, and if impaired, the associated assets must be written down to fair value. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. Other Intangible Assets: Intangible assets consist of customer relationship intangibles and trademarks. The Company amortizes the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to six years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company concluded no impairment existed. |
Promotional Displays | Promotional Displays: The Company invests in promotional displays in retail stores to demonstrate product features, product and quality specifications, and to serve as a training tool for retail kitchen designers. The Company invests in these long-lived productive assets to provide the aforementioned benefits. The Company's investment in promotional displays is carried at cost less applicable amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method on an individual display basis over periods of 24 to 60 months (the estimated period of benefit). |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes: The Company accounts for deferred income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which these items are expected to reverse. At each reporting date, the Company evaluates the need for a valuation allowance to adjust deferred tax assets and liabilities to an amount that more likely than not will be realized. |
Pensions | Pensions: Prior to April 30, 2020, the Company had two non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering many of the Company's employees hired prior to April 30, 2012. Effective April 30, 2012, the Company froze all future benefit accruals under the Company's hourly and salaried defined benefit pension plans. Effective April 30, 2020, these plans were merged into one plan. The Company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of its defined benefit pension plans, measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation, in its consolidated balance sheets. The Company also recognizes the actuarial gains and losses and the prior service costs, credits and transition costs as a component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax. On November 16, 2020 the Company filed an application with the Internal Revenue Service to terminate the pension plan with an effective date of December 31, 2020. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation: The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value over the requisite service period. The Company records the expense for stock-based compensation awards subject to performance-based criteria vesting over the remaining service period when the Company determines that achievement of the performance criteria is probable. The Company evaluates when the achievement of performance-based criteria is probable based on the expected satisfaction of the performance criteria at each reporting date. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements : In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued a new standard for leases, ASC 842, which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The standard provides for the option to elect a package of practical expedients upon adoption. The Company adopted the standard on May 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach and elected the package of practical expedients that allows it to forgo reassessment of lease classification for leases that have already commenced. The Company also elected the practical expedients to the new standard without restating comparative prior period financial information and to not recognize ROU assets and liabilities for operating leases with shorter than 12-month terms. On May 1, 2019, the Company recognized operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of $80.4 million. The new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or opening retained earnings, or on its debt covenant calculations. ASC 842 also requires entities to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative information regarding the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Such disclosures are included in Note N — Leases . In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes," which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod tax allocations and calculating income taxes in interim periods . The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning May 1, 2021. The Company has reviewed the provisions of this new pronouncement and the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have an impact on financial position or results of operations. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." These amendments provide temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. It is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and can be adopted as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company has identified loans and other financial instruments that are directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements . |
