Total Door Sustainability Extends to own Backyard

Many of you may not know that Total Door Systems’ sets aside 20 percent of our real estate division’s profits to sustainability initiatives. A project already under way is The North Saginaw Prairie Restoration Project. In its second year, this project is restoring green infrastructure that will allow for the expansion of urban agriculture and healthy food and beautiful flowers for residents at no cost to them.

This is all a part of Total Door Systems’ annual commitment to green and conservation infrastructure projects, ecological restoration, urban agriculture, and the arts.

Total Door Presents at CSI National Conference

Total Door Systems is expanding our presence at industry events across the nation. Candace’s presentation focused on how to create a safe opening, including how to plan for it, what to look for and what to avoid. The presentation also covered common issues found in the field and how to avoid incorrect pockets, frames, and hardware. Candace’s presentation focused on the significance of having proper fire and smoke protection and containment in place – and the ramifications for not mitigating those risks. 

We hope you were in Houston to catch it!
