Black hardware is back after a long hiatus. To meet the growing demand, we are now offering our levers, grips, and exit devices in black.
Design is trending towards darker finishes. If an architect or builder is tying into this overall aesthetic, looking to match other doors or even a wall, black hardware gives them a good and easy solution.
You can now find the black hardware option in the DoorBuilder tool, available through the sales portal at TotalDoor.com.
To make sure your distributors know all the ways that SafeFrame™ can help build your success, we have asked you to schedule a brief product training session with each one during the month of February. Please continue to use the email template we sent you to get your distributors to choose one of the time slots available for their training session.
The 25-minute session gives them a high-level view of the product and its benefits, as well as how to quote and order, and where to spec it. Please reserve time at the end to listen to any specific questions that they have, or opportunities to support their efforts.
Our goal is to have every distributor trained and ready when our big SafeFrame marketing blitz kicks off in March.
If you want to see how easy SafeFrame is to install while you are scheduling your Zoom sessions, check out our installation training video.
From saving construction costs to saving time to saving lives – SafeFrame™ offers many advantages for your customers.
SafeFrame provides a long list of benefits to distributors, including:
What is working out in the field? What is getting results? We asked members of your Advisory Council what is working in their region. Here are some of the updates they shared with us.
We continue to reach out to Building Officials with offers to educate them and make them more aware of codes involving Elevator Hoistway Protection against smoke migration. This has turned up a number of projects where we are able to insert Total Door Systems as a solution for code compliance.
– Gary Deter
Using the new Construction Connect system that Jack Robbins and Candace Kitchen have put in place, we have been able to reach out to code officials in our territory. It lets us offer them a solution for their buildings to meet the fire codes as required by their local laws.
Also, following up with the individual attendees from Jack Robbins’s national AEC Daily live webinars has opened the doors to putting on Lunch and Learn presentations for their entire firm.
– Jeff Addis
We have been scheduling AIA CES presentations as online webinars focusing on the Smoke Containment presentation for a number of individual firms and recently presented to the Denver Chapter of CSI as part of their education program for members and guests.
We have also found the Construction Connect leads to be effective in connecting with the architects and have scheduled another AIA CES presentation as a result of one of the project leads.
