Fortress Launches Upper Fortress Installers Network

RICHARDSON, Texas (April 9, 2009) - Fortress launches the Upper Fortress Installers Network designed for selected deck builders and contractors who have installed a high number of Fortress Railing projects and have demonstrated a strong understanding of working with Fortress Railing products.

As a brand leader of the residential railing market, Fortress continues to experience a growing demand for its innovative railing solutions.

"We are excited about our future growth and increased brand position in the railing category," says Erik Flick, Product Manager of the Railing Division of Fortress, "and we see this program as one that will provide additional growth for Fortress and our loyal network of distributors, dealers and contractors."

Contractors who are a part of the Upper Fortress Installers Network will be added on the Fortress website and will receive supplemental materials such as samples and literature that can be utilized to effectively show potential customers the quality of the product as well as the myriad of options that are available.

In addition to the contractor benefits, the program is a great tool for its distributor and dealer network that stretches across the United States and parts of Canada. Distributors and dealers will now have the ability to recommend contractors for this program and benefit from interested homeowners contacting the Upper Fortress Contractors that they have referred.
