"Boathouse" From Carlisle Wide Plank Floors' New Lakehouse Collection
Offering an extensive array of design choices, Carlisle Collections give clients the ability to express their personal style in a wide variety of wood types, vibrant hues, and handcrafted textures, with each collection telling a unique story. The collections also offer a broad range of price points starting at $8.99 per square foot, plus a faster lead-time with just 2-4 weeks for delivery on most products. Carlisle Collections are now available to purchase directly online at http://www.wideplankflooring.com/collections, where clients will also find new tools to help in their wood flooring selection like a free design portfolio with 60+ pages of color choices. For clients looking for a one-of-a-kind floor to suit their design needs, Carlisle will continue to offer its custom wide plank flooring.
"These collections truly represent the best of the best here at Carlisle and are a direct reflection of our most popular floors over the years, as well as feedback from our clients," said Carlisle's President & CEO Michael Stanek. "We think both homeowners and trade professionals will be impressed with the design choices, the price points, and as always, our unrivaled artisanship and quality."
The twelve new collections range from the Traditional collection of White Oak hardwood floors in a range of classic hues to Chalet, a series of Hickory hardwood floors inspired by the casual elegance of a mountain retreat - and Studio, a collection of engineered floors designed for small spaces and urban living. While most are prefinished, Carlisle Collections also include the Nature's Best collection of unfinished flooring, which showcases the inherent beauty of the wood and its natural grain patterns. All Carlisle floors are made in America by the company's artisan craftsmen, who have over 200 years of combined woodworking experience and use only the finest, center-cut wood.
"We wanted to offer our clients a solution to every design problem with these collections," said Chris Sy, Vice President of Contractor Sales and Development at Carlisle Wide Plank Floors. "The Lakehouse collection is the perfect choice for a second home, for example, and the Farmhouse collection offers a beautiful alternative to an antique floor at a much more accessible price point. Each collection really suits a unique need for our clients."
Carlisle also now offers more than 100 images for inspiration on its website, plus unique design tools like a free Design Portfolio, and an innovative color specifier for members of the trade with easy-to-use, perforated color chips to tear off and attach to a client presentation or inspiration board. Members of the trade can also access Carlisle's new Preferred Pricing Program on the website, offering 10% off retail pricing on a wide range of wood species, textures, and finishes.
