Architectural Film vs. Veneer

Veneers header

At Total Door we have turned our focus to the use of architectural film over veneers. This gives architects really good design options that offer better quality. When we use architectural film instead of veneers, it increases the efficiency of our manufacturing process, helping keep costs down. The use of these films also adds to our ongoing efforts to increase sustainability and lower our carbon footprint.

Architectural film is easier to apply, costs less, creates less waste in its application and lasts longer. They give our doors a natural, authentic look which is resistant to water, dirt and has less wear and tear. They don’t require special chemicals to maintain it, which means green, environmentally-friendly cleaners can be used.

New Leads Page

New Leads Page

Work on your sales portal leads page is nearly complete, and our pilot testing of the leads program has launched. When launched company wide, you will be able to find your architect leads from the AIA webinars on your portal page upon completion of your partner login.

You will be able to manage these leads in several ways – assign them to someone on your team for follow up, export them to a CSV file for management in your CRM, or you can simply store them on your portal page and indicate their status with a drop-down menu and notes box.

We will let you know when the leads program is active on all portal pages, and we’ll be providing a step-by-step guide on how to use it to manage your information.
