It's Cold Outside, Grab a Blanket...

It's Cold Outside, Grab a Blanket...


For many in the fence business, life slows down a little in the winter. Cold weather, rain, ice, even holidays, can make the fence business a tough one in December and January. Whether you close down for the winter, or “plow” your way through, now is a great time to plan ahead and take advantage of significant savings throughout all of 2015.

Modern Fence Technologies doesn't offer sales gimmicks, or “preferred customer discounts”, or any of the games other companies play. The price we quote is the price of the product. The way to get a lower price is to buy in volume. But what if you know you don't need a pallet of hardware on January 10th?

We're glad you asked. Our blanket ordering system allows you to estimate what you would use in a typical year, add it up into one order, receive the discount level based on the volume of that order, and then opt to receive partial shipments of that order throughout the year, paying for each shipment as it is received, rather than paying for a container load or pallet of parts that may not be used for three or four months.

Did we mention that you can mix and match products to get to those discount levels? That's right. If the Online Store says you need to buy 25 cases to get the best price, you don't have to buy 25 cases of the same item. You can buy ten cases of hinges, ten cases of latches, and five cases of drop rods to get the “magic number”. You can do even better if you mix vinyl caps and accessories with hardware. You could save 5, 10, or even 15% or more over what you currently spend.


We can offer these savings because there is a value to your larger order. We can also plan production around anticipated demand much more accurately when we know we have orders for certain items coming due. Call your Modern Fence Technologies sales representative and ask about “blanket orders” and see how much you can save, while growing your business using American made fence products from Modern Fence Technologies.
