Tom - Just wanted to express our thanks for the excellent product (railing for the Yale Ave. East property). Also the technical assistance you gave Coddington Construction was much appreciated by them and us. If we can ever be of help in communicating the excellence of the product and the help to other potential clients of your, please let me know.

The railing looks fantastic! I'm really happy with it, and it seems very sturdy. Sweet! Thanks for the quick service. I'll definitely get some pictures for you once it's all in and the construction garbage around it is cleaned up. Here's a long-shot photo I took yesterday. It's useless for your marketing, but it shows how unobtrusive the railing is. I'm really glad we went with glass as opposed to picket.

Gentlemen
Attached are a few pictures of my project using your cable railing system at my home. The result are fabulous wiht excellent quality and the next exact look that I desired. Since the pictures are large files, I will send more pictures in other e-mails so they will transmit.
Thanks again for providing exceptional quality and service. I truly appreciate it.

Overall the project was a success. Once again Hansen has excelled where many others have proven to disappoint me in the past. Keep up the great work! I can share some pictures of my project soon. Perhaps it might be of interest for your website since you don't have any examples of your product being used over a stairway in this manor. It really came out nice and is a solid product.

Tom,
I don't know how to thank you enough! Not just for the excellent quality and service, but for the All Thread suggestion (much cheaper than the epoxy anchors I had planned on using), and for the WD40 trick on the metal cutting blade. Not only does it keep the blade from clogging, it really reduces the amount of deburring necessary. Mary and I are really happy with the results. She gets a big smile every time she goes in or out of the front door now. We both feel that it added more value to our house than the cost of the parts. Your railing are much nicer than the wrought iron ones we had originally designed and just a third of the cost and we get really cool lights and I get the benefit of doing it myself! Everything went together like clockwork. Your railings are relatively easy to assemble. The hardest part was dealing with the exposed aggregate on the steps. It took almost a whole day to chip it smooth and add a thin mortar layer to make it absolutely level for the base plates. But it was worth it; they look like they were installed when the house was built. The only complaint we have is that we didn't meet you sooner. Send me a few business cards so if we have any friends that are considering something similar, they won't have to wait. Thanks again!

My Deck Railing Project
April 12, 2010
Jason
Ryan and I picked up our materials midday and were back to the house by about 1:30. The rail was up and beautiful by 4:30. Your design and execution are brilliant. Overall I am as impressed as I have ever been by something I've purchased for my house and I've been under construction on and off (lots of on) since 1971. The only problem is that your railing makes the railings on the rest of my decks look shabby. We'll be back for more one of these days. You have been very helpful all along. Thank you very much.

I came home last night to a wonderful surprise! My finished patio! To say it looks wonderful is an understatement! The new patio s make our building look AWESOME! Could not believe it! I was stunned! Our common area almost looks like the entrance to a spa hotel! Once the interior design for the landscaping is complete, our common area will look beyond what we could have ever imagined. Coby and Bob; you both ROCK! Although, my partner Lisa was approached and told by an onsite owner (who I believe has only come to one meeting out of many concerning anything to do with our patio project) complained to Lisa the common are now looks colorless . Lisa told her she was wrong, and the new enclosures look fantastic! Thank you Bob for putting a lock on our gate/door to our patio; we feel much safer and any privacy issues have been totally resolved! I am amazed at how great this project has come together! Thank you everyone for all your hard work and effort!

Excellent Product Exceptional Service
Posted by frontco on 12/19/2009
After just finishing the install of the Cable Rail system, we have nothing but good to say about the Hansen company. We are Harcon Construction a professional remodeling/construction company based in Cincinnati Ohio. Being this was our first time working with Hansen we were a little weary of how the process would work and the quality of the product. Jason Kosola was our sales contact for the project and made every effort to complete our business without incident. We recieved our railing via a shipping company on time and also got to talk with some very friendly people there as well. We have gotten nothing but compliments from the Homeowner of project. Jason worked with us thru the entire project and communicated very well, all of our questions were answered very quickly. We will be doing usiness with Hansen and Jason again.

A company that cares
Posted by roysimmons on 12/18/2009
As a homeowner of 24 years I have learned to be overly cautious when contracting services. Time has proven over and over that most companies fail to deliver the level of service they promise in at least one area and usually it is more than one. Hansen Architectural has proven to me to be one of the very few exceptions to that. I ordered a custom made canopy to provide some protection in front of my home, from the elements. The people were friendly and helpful through the entire process from initial contact to support with installation. I chose to install it myself, knowing that my project would require some on-site fabrication. Jason worked with me to ensure I had all the proper materials to fabricate these pieces. The custom kit arrived in superior packaging. No pieces were missing or damaged. All fasteners were packaged separately and I was amazed to find that I didn't run short on any of them. The quality of the finish is very good, with no imperfections. The structure is extremely stronger than anticipated. This is clearly money well spent and I am already planning a 2nd phase to extend the canopy over a walkway to the house. The best part is that at the end of my project, I contacted Hansen to make a couple suggestions that I felt would further improve their product. They were very open to the ideas and were enthusiastic at the possibility of enhancing a great product. That it the kind of company I want to be associated with, people that really care.
Thank you to Hansen Architectural

Thank you to Hansen Architectural Systems, Inc. for your company's efforts in supplying and installing glass handrail system at our QFC Grocery Store remodel project in Seattle. Tom Trocino and your installer Cecil pulled this off under the pressures of an extremely tight schedule, in a very professional manner, finishing a couple days early, and our client was extremely pleased with the final product.

Bruce Christopher /General Contractor
Posted by Brucetopher on 12/16/2009
I am a general contractor specializing in residential and commercial remodels. We periodically have projects that require a deck railing and have used Hansen Architectural Systems products. Since discovering Hansen Architectural several yearts ago we have not used any other system. We love the look and quality of what ever style we have used as do our clients. We always try to recommend and install products that look superior to the products available at the large "box stores" or "do it yourself" centers. Hansen Architectural Systems gives us that "high end" look that we like to include in our projects. The salesman that we work with is quick to respond to any need we have from needed parts, installation advise or meeting with opur customer to help sell the job. We could not be happier with Hansen Architectural Systems and will continue to call them for all our powder coated railing needs.
Sincerely,
Bruce Christopher/owner

Hansen is great!

We hired Hansen to install glass railing and a patio cover on our home. They provided excellent quality products on time and on budget. We highly recommend Hansen for your project.

Great Service
Posted by JBGARY on 12/16/2009
For a recent residential project in Seattle, we used an all glass railing system on a deck with a sweeping Puget Sound view. Hansen Architectural Systems was very helpful in coordinating the railing details with the architect, structural engineer and the contractor. The price quoted was the price billed. The installation was in a difficult location, and as in almost all construction projects, there were some bumps on the road. Hansen Architectural Systems really stepped up to quickly resolve the installation issues. The finished railing system is beautiful. I will certainly be recommending them for future projects.

Handrail systems
Posted by jhbeloff on 12/16/2009
Over the past 10 years , I have had the experience of building homes for my family , friends and clients. One of the most consistant super high quality and service companies has been Hansen Architectual Systems. We have used their cable and rail sytem on almost every project . The system works extremely well for all types of architecture and is a sytem favored by the local inspectures. The service is as well of the highest quality. We have rarely had to have Hansen to come back for adjustment. When we have they have been all over it. I have referred Hansen to many who have been remodelling who are looking for high quality details to add to their additions. I have always received very positive feedback in return. I would strongly recommend them for the smallest to the most detailed high end project. They are a absolute stand along company and built in America.
