“You can talk about your problems with other business owners [in your local area], but to get specific about framing challenges with somebody who really understands them is fun, and very useful. You get useful conversations that will trigger an idea or push us in a particular direction to help us solve some problems.”

“Customers are impressed when we hand them a copy [of FrameSAFE]; they are absolutely amazed we are doing this,” King says. “It’s a huge draw for them when they see us following safety protocols. It’s one of the reasons we stay extremely busy.”

FrameSAFE is specific to framers and allows us to train on the same topics as our subs, to be able to have the same expectations for safety on the job. With the enhancements in version 4, more than ever FrameSAFE will ensure everybody is talking the same talk, looking for the same issues, and making sure the workers are protected in the same manner all the time.” - Ken Shifflett
