Customer's Corner

Museums offer insights into multi-faceted cultures, history, and special interests and subject matter of all types. Presenting materials in their purest form, without hindering, obstructing, or distracting the view is very important to the exhibit curator and visitor alike. This technology museum chose to use our Click Rail Track to effectively achieve both of these goals.

Every once in a while a client shares photos of how they've used our products that just wow us. Well, recently it happened again. The Center for Architecture in Sarasota, FL sent in photos of their exhibit titled, "Naked" The Architecture of Guy Peterson'. What is The Center for Architecture?

Is that your first thought when your little one creates a masterpiece for you, beaming with bright eyes and a smile stretching from ear to ear, while you're secretly thinking,

Having recently updated my own kitchen, visiting many kitchen showrooms in the process and experiencing the monotony often encountered during the shopping experience, I'm thrilled to share with you a recent Customer's Corner story that uses an entirely different approach to kitchen cabinet displays and the custom kitchen design showroom process. Armoires Cuisine Action, located in Boucherville (QC, Canada), provides custom kitchen cabinet and bath services to the greater Montreal market. Their well-executed implementation of a hanging system installation clearly steps outside the art hanging arena, devising a practical and efficient approach to a better customer hands on experience.

Children take great pride when their artwork is displayed at school. The art brightens up the walls and adds cheer to the environment. It makes parents feel proud of their little one's abilities to see their artistic creativity being shared with others. Unfortunately, with bulletin bars typically found in schools, this artwork can be quickly damaged as soon as it goes on display. Staples, thumbtacks, and sharps used to hang the pictures to the cork rail bulletin bars put holes into the pictures. That's not good!

When the management team at the leading Bean Bag company, Comfort Research, decided to enroll the staff to constantly focus on improving the company, they came up with a real winner of an idea. Always looking to "Find a Better Way" (FAB), management put some money where the ideas are. They created a program that allows all employees to submit ideas. The ideas are reviewed by a team and, if an idea shows a likelihood to improve the company's processes, increase customer satisfaction, or reduce costs, the idea is implemented. Better yet, there are quarterly and annual rewards for the best FAB Ideas. But to maintain visibility amongst the staff, all submissions are published and displayed on a Wall of Fab.

We have witnessed, and previously reported on, customers using our Pocket Display System to create any number of interesting solutions, such as for display real estate listings and museums display walls. We have a new application success story to share with you. It comprises 175 pockets creating a display spanning more than 35 feet wide and over 8 feet tall.

First impressions are critical - especially in the business world. How you represent yourself says volumes about how you do business with others, right? Putting your best foot forward, so to speak, is the name of the game. So when we received these images of the marketing offices at the Irvine Company, a major property owner of Class A office buildings in Southern California, we were impressed. Class A office buildings are the highest quality office space in their markets and are in the best locations. These buildings generally command the highest rents and the best and most sophisticated tenants. Marketing properties of this caliber requires a presentation that is equally on point. We feel the Irvine Company accomplished that result - superbly.  

Recently, one of our more advanced customers shared a photo story with us about his in-depth room makeover project. This opportunity came when a child moved out of the home. The project was to refresh the space and convert the room to an in-home office. The entire project would include installing new windows, crafting all new finish carpentry to include baseboards, chair rail, window and door casements, mounting Click Rail Track behind a beautiful crown molding, and a new paint job.

Recently we received some photos and a quick note from one of our customers about how she implemented our Click Rail Track in her home office. She wanted to hang one of those typical wall calendars - you know the ones, picture on the top half, calendar on the bottom half - without putting nails in her wall or taking up valuable wall space for a simple calendar.

Our customers keep sharing their novel and successful approaches to creating retail merchandise displays using our tracks and hanging hardware. We love it when you guys share with us your success stories! Here's another dynamic approach, using our products, executed by a quaint Hermosa Beach, CA apparel company.
