Architectural Support
At Martineau & Co, we're focused on educating the Northeast Architectural and Consulting Community on TecFire’s innovative product line, FireGuard Pro.
Architects are delighted to have an alternative in the marketplace. At AIA Boston, we received news of major architectural and consulting firms adding FireGuard Pro to their specifications.
We're working closely with firms throughout the Northeast. We have a steady approach of Lunch and Learns, consulting calls, and slowly were earning our way into specifications. If you need us to come to your firm, please contact us. If you have a firm you’d like us to visit, please let us know.
Glazier Request for Quote(RFQ)
Our second area of focus is to help Glaziers win more projects. FireGuard Pro has all you need to separate yourself from the competition.
- Required North American Certifications
- Competitive Price
- Reliable Lead Times
- Fast and Easy Installation
Working together, we can leverage our architectural relationships and superior product to help you win.
Here's a simple Fire Rated Glazing Estimators Checklist to get the RFQ's rolling:
Project Information | Schedule | Documentation |
Project Name | Quote Date Requirement | Take-off with Dimensions and Quantities |
Location | Materials Required Date | Fire Rated Glass Specification |
Hardware Specification | ||
Drawings with elevation and floor plan |
These items appear simple because they are. We find most of the RFQ's we receive are complete and we're able to provide a timely quote.
The most common mistake is forgetting to include the Specification. Both the Fire Rated Glass and Hardware Spec are important. We need to confirm the spec language and identify the requirements.
- Does the spec list alternates?
- Is a competitor the basis of design?
