CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
The designonlineinc.com classification system is copyrighted and has been extensively researched within the profession. It thinks primarily like a professional, not a client. It assumes a certain level of education, expertise and understanding of the terminology of the profession. We welcome your comments and suggestions. They will help us continue to refine this unique business tool.
The following is an overview of how data is entered for searches. In general, we enter data according to how a product is shown in the catalog. That product may be available in several sizes or finishes but is entered as shown, with optional finishes and sizes listed.
Unless otherwise stated, pricing is for COM and standard finishes regardless of how the item is shown. This allows you to search at the lowest common denominator.
We strive to keep information up to date. New catalogs and new products are entered as soon as possible to reflect price changes and discontinued items. These changes are generally made within the same week that they are received and that date is recorded on the Spec Sheet as Catalog Last Updated. We're also in constant contact with our manufacturers about updates. If you experience problems with price changes or discontinued items, please E-mail us immediately.
