Explore the advantages of integrating 100% offsite fabrication into the design of the ornamental railing you specify in your architectural projects.

When compared to local fabrication, Offsite fabrication of custom-designed railing systems not only dramatically improves product quality, it also minimizes project waste, reduces product costs, and streamlines construction processes. Offsite Fabrication = Value Engineering!

In this presentation you will learn how architects, designers, and engineers can reduce overall project costs and improve project outcomes by specifiying architectural products which have been custom-designed to precisely fit each project, and then prefabricated to completion offsite, while helping builders and contractors achieve greater efficiency.

Modern commercial, industrial, and multifamily projects demand seamless integration between site access points and building systems. This course reviews how innovative proprietary systems can be adopted to create a comprehensive, safe, secure, and easy-to-use control system, from gate operators and barrier arms to interior keypads and overhead doors. Also discussed is how the technology platform connects the necessary hardware and software in a unified, scalable solution that enhances security and access control and simplifies access management across various building areas. Lastly, some real-world examples are presented to highlight these integrated solutions, showcasing the value of specifying compatible system components from a single source versus fragmented system parts.
