THE NEW FOLDING CASEY FROM SUPER WAGONS At last, the perfect solution for people on the go that need to haul lots of gear! Between all the sports kids play these days, every parent knows how much gear needs to be transported to the field. Even a simple day at the beach requires coolers, umbrellas, chairs, boards, towels, etc. The distance from where you park to your final destination can be a long way to walk and carry all that gear. That usu- ally means several trips, or one back- breaking effort. The scant few folding wagon options on the market all have the same thing in common. They are small, flimsy, break easily and simply cannot traverse over dirt, grass, sand or gravel without getting too bogged down to pull. That's why The Folding Casey was invented by Super Wagons. The Folding Casey is made for the serious hauler! Big, bold, super strong but super light, it can hold over 1,000 pounds of gear and go anywhere you can walk. In addition, the Folding Casey has a unique push/pull handle feature that locks in place, which allows you to either pull or push the wagon to your destination. The Folding Casey will make its debut at the annual National Hardaware Show, and can be seen at LG 31 in the New Exhibitor Hall for Lawn, Garden & Outdoor Living located on Level Two of the North Building. The Folding Casey will be available this summer. Super Wagons will be looking for retail partners as well as manufactur- ers reps. Visit Super Wagons at LG 31.

CAMO MARKSMAN EDGE: 'SEE WHAT YOU'RE MISSING' By Kris Anderson, Senior Marketing Manager, National Nail Corp. Since its launch at the 2011 International Builders' Show, the response to the CAMO ® brand and product line has been nothing short of phenomenal. CAMO has become synonymous with innovative deck fastening, and Changing the FACE of Decking ® is not just a tag line, it's a movement changing how decks are installed. In keeping with this, CAMO is introducing a solution uniquely designed to address the problems associated with installing and enjoying treated wood decks. This solution is the CAMO Marksman Edge™, soon to become the preferred installation method. The treated wood market is the largest in the deck industry. Today, the standard installation method for many builders is to face-fasten boards with screws or gun nails, and with no gap to allow for shrinkage as the boards dry. Though face-fastening is convenient, it encourages treated lumber to split and crack, and fasteners can pop over time. These hazards get in the way of home- owners enjoying the beauty and safety of their deck. Until now … The CAMO Marksman Edge pro- vides the perfect edge-fastening solution with no gap. The Edge, a part of the CAMO Hidden Deck Fastening System, provides secure, side-angle fastener entry. It leaves a beautiful, fastener-free (and splinter-free) deck surface – one that homeowners will appreciate. The Edge attaches to any drill, and it's versatile enough to work with secondary spacers when your project requires a gap. It's as simple as loading the fastener, setting the tool and driving it in. A built-in CAMO Driver Bit controls the depth of drive every time, and at an affordable $39.95 MSRP, the Edge eco- nomically delivers a great high- end look your homeowners will enjoy, and gives you a competi- tive edge. Now that's what you call preferred! CAMO also offers the most complete line of deck and exte- rior fastening solutions with the CAMO Hidden Deck Fastening System and CAMO Exterior Screws. CAMO Hidden offers multiple edge-fas- tening solutions that are the best practice and preferred method for installing wood, composite and PVC deckboards. The patented system includes CAMO Hidden Fasteners, CAMO Marksman ® tools and CAMO Driver Bits that work together to create a beautiful, fastener- free deck surface that will be enjoyed for years. CAMO provides a Limited Lifetime Warranty that guarantees against rust and corrosion for the life of the project. CAMO Exterior Screws offer premi- um solutions for a wide variety of exteri- or projects. All fasteners are ACQ-compatible, and offer a Limited Lifetime Warranty. CAMO Premium Deck Screws are great multi-purpose screws for face-fastening wood deck- ing, exterior trim, fences and other projects. CAMO Composite Screws provide the best finish around for composite and capstock deckboards, and are available in 10 colors that match most leading composite boards. CAMO Structural Screws easily replace lag screws for use in applications where strength and durability are required. CAMO Stainless Screws provide the ulti- mate corrosion resistance in extreme environments. Available in Premium Deck and Composite, these screws come in a variety of painted-head colors to complement the most popular trim and deck products.

HEAD AND SHOULDERS ABOVE THE REST Since 1986, Residential Elevators has been in the home elevator business. For 28 years, it has been devoted entirely to producing a superior product for a specif- ic market (i.e., elevators for single fami- ly homes). The results of that long term dedication are customized, quality eleva- tors at affordable prices. There are two models. The LLH-950 is a hydraulic design which needs less overhead clearance in the hoistway. The other series, LLT-950, is a traction eleva- tor best known for being machine room- less, saving valuable square footage. The manufacturing plant is located less than 10 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, so Residential Elevators is familiar with harsh weather and created a product to withstand the elements. The cabs are made of architectural cabinet grade material and solid hard- wood trim available in a variety of wood species. There are several designs, each handcrafted to order. With the numerous accessories and options, it would be impossible not to find the right style to meet a client's needs. Handrail, light fix- ture and hall station accessories – to name a few – come in several finishes such as stainless, brushed, antiqued and hardwood. For those with a lovely view, the observation glass window option is a must. The possibilities are endless. Residential Elevators does not just deliver a pretty product. It also has lead- ing edge components. This includes a sophisticated PLC (programmable logic controller) to ensure safety and depend- ability. It utilizes the same advanced technology as the automotive and preci- sion manufacturing industries. Safety is the most impor- tant aspect of any elevator, which is why Residential Elevators has implemented several layers to safeguard their passengers. In the event there is a power outage, the elevator automatically lowers to the next landing to allow pas- sengers to exit safely. Another safety fea- ture is the door lock system. The door and gate must be closed securely in order for it to move. The Photo Electric Landing System ensures floor leveling accuracy and relays the information to the main control system. There is also an Infrared Protection option with over 200 infrared beams. The elevator will imme- diately stop if any beam is disrupted. Residential Elevators believes each day is an opportunity to learn some- thing new and use that information to improve. It applies experience, technol- ogy and ingenuity to provide products and services that are head and shoulders above the rest.
