A number of website enhancements have been completed recently that will enhance the user experience and improve the site’s functionality.

On the home page a bright yellow and gold medallion has been placed in the “Enter Showroom” area. Its purpose is to alert the viewer to the New Key Panel in the Product Showroom.

Upon entering the Product Showroom you will notice the yellow and gold bar highlighting the “Online Architectural Key Panel”.

Selecting the Key Panel bar brings up the key panel. Clicking on an individual sample brings up a brick panel with mortar. This eliminates the need to return to the showroom to locate the panel. For brick types that have an example of a commercial project available, it can be viewed by selecting “Example” in the upper right corner. You may return to the key panel, as you would expect, by selecting “Return to the Key Panel” or clicking the “X” in the popup window.

Other parts of he Showroom have been enhanced as well. The names of the brick depicted on the thumbnail panels located in the showroom are now shown in a grey bar just above the thumbnail. The names are shown as you move the cursor over the thumbnail. There is no need to click the thumbnail to see the name but you must click to bring up the panel with mortar.

The new additions to the product line have been placed into the Product Showroom. Chesapeake Grey is located in the Washed Tumble section and will appear first when that section is selected.

In the Sand Finished section of the Showroom, Tuscan appears first and Stone Canyon is positioned next to it.

These website enhancements have been made in response to customer requests. We will continue to improve the user experience and ease of use with your input.

Thanks for the collective input.
