In response to increased demand from the glass industry for access and egress door control solutions, SDC has tapped its central regional sales manager, Mary Hester, a 17-year glass industry veteran, to lead a new initiative for easing the adoption and practical application of electrified hardware to glass doors.

"Since Mary came on board at the end of 2016, we've been working on programs to leverage her extensive knowledge and experience in the glass industry for the benefit of glass and glazing professionals and organizations," said Shane Geringer, SDC’s president and CEO. "This segment has unique needs and a desire to tap in on the tremendous growth potential for electrified hardware, access controls and compliance solutions specific to their markets and customers.”
