Transoms Direct is the country's only dedicated manufacturer of custom interior wood transom windows.

Transoms Direct was a brand new start-up venture founded by very experienced interior trim carpenters. The company had developed a technique for mass producing custom interior wood transom windows at an affordable price point.

Now that they had their manufacturing facility up and running, they wanted to sell their transoms on a national basis through their own website with an integrated online shopping cart.

teqKnowledgy customized the popular Joomla! content management system (CMS) to meet Transom Direct's product sales needs.

• A customized Joomla! website template

• Over 700 individual products and associated photos and CAD drawings (both full-size and thumbnail size) loaded by teqKnowledgy into MySQL database
• AJAX "lightbox" animation effects when viewing individual product drawings
• Photo gallery of real-world installations with links to individual styles in online store
• Integrated UPS shipping quotations at time of customer purchase
• Internal company order processing and tracking capabilities
