Two Audiences, Two Ways to Find Products

For Retail Customers

For retail customers who want a fast way to find the product that best meets their needs, we developed an innovative drop down visual menu system. This system allows retail customers to quickly identify the product category they’re interested in, and then with a minimum of effort, find the specific product they need.

For Trade Professionals

Trade professionals, who are typically more knowledgeable about door locks and handles, can use a sophisticated search engine based on Dynamic Filtering Technology to identify the products they’re interested in. This technology allows these professionals to select a number of product attributes to quickly narrow down the set of products that meet their search criteria.

For people who are new to shopping for door hardware, we created a Product Selector which walks users through the decision-making process either based on their door type, or, finding a replacement.
