Crystal Window & Door Systems enhances website with visual project locator tool

Boston, MA Crystal Window & Door Systems unveiled a new project mapping tool on its corporate website, providing visitors with an enhanced experience as to the quantity, the scope, and the magnitude of the projects Crystal has supplied. The new interactive project tool allows Crystal customers and visitors to the website to see the location, details, and images of its many notable projects throughout the nation.

“Crystal has always presented its projects in very visual ways, sharing photographs and the interesting challenges and details behind the projects through customer newsletters, social media, and news releases,” said Steve Chen, CEO. “Now we added another dimension so customers can see the breadth of our product line enhancing the built environment across the country.”

The Crystal project locator tool opens on the website’s Projects page, showing the entire continental United States and clusters of projects. Zooming in on a particular cluster or location on the map reveals specific individual projects; clicking on a project pin on the map opens images and details on the products and quantities supplied, with links to the webpages for those products used on the project. Currently only projects supplied in the last couple of years are mapped, however this is being expanded to include numerous notable past projects in every major market.

“We are planning additional functions for this powerful tool,” said Mason Wang, Crystal’s director of IT. “For example, visitors to the website will be able to filter projects by window and door material type, and on the same page, the many highlighted Crystal projects can be further filtered by building category. Design and fenestration professionals can compare projects similar to the new ones they are planning.”

“This project locator tool provides a rich visual summary of the overall expertise, experience, and capabilities of Crystal Windows,” said Chen. “We want architects, developers, builders, fenestration trade customers, home and building owners, as well as other visitors to the website to have a sense that no matter the type or size of their project, Crystal has the right product to meet their needs.”
