We recently made four great improvements to strongware. Two of the updates are based on your feedback and the other two updates are improvements to keep strongware as innovative and as versatile as possible.
- We added the new Classica Crown Molding, so it can be added in any installation style as well as in all of our color styles. This allows the installer and the homeowner the ability to design the exact closet they want, with a more accurate parts list and in the installation method they prefer.
- You now can place wall obstructions anywhere you wish in the closet. From double and single light switches and outlets to windows, doors and an object box, you are able to accurately represent the homeowner’s closet. Objects such as windows, doors and the object box also can be resized to give an accurate portrayal of the item. Key items in a homeowner’s closet can now be added to the diagram to more accurately portray working conditions and areas to be cautious of.
- You now have the option while you are in the individual closet design to print out the individual closet walls. You can do that by selecting the printer icon in the closet and then selecting Closet and then Walls. It will print off the closet image and then each individual wall, with a reference Top View picture with the area highlighted at the top. This feature is great for installers because now large walk in closets can be printed out one wall at a time, allowing for easier reading of the drawing and a better understanding of how to go about setting up the installation.

- Finally, we have created a Dealer Parts/Price List. This list takes all of the items in your combined parts/price list and then tells you how many cartons would be required to purchase the order. For commercial projects this can be very useful because it shows you how much you will need to purchase to actually install the job which can help you to modify the order to reduce the overall cost and waste in your warehouse.
