Gardner Engineering DISTRIBUTOR & RETAILER OFFER.

Specifying the right mount, pole, or bracket for a CCTV or access control installation has usually meant flicking between spec sheets, brochures, and a phone call to confirm the fitting.

Our product configurator changes that — and for our distributor partners, it does something more: it puts a fully branded version of that same tool on their own website.

What it does

The configurator walks a customer through building their exact spec, step by step:

Product line — from Goose Neck and Swan Neck camera arms through to Steel Poles, Pole Couplers, Monitor Brackets, and our Access Control range

Mount type, fitting, and finish — including a “request unique” option for anything bespoke

A live preview — that updates as the spec is built, so there’s no guessing what’s being ordered

A configuration summary — the customer can check over before adding it to their order

Once your customers are happy, they submit their details and the enquiry lands as a ready-to-quote request — full spec attached, no back-and-forth needed to work out what they meant.

Built for distributors, not just for us

We built the configurator to run under our own brand first. But the bigger opportunity is what it does for the distributors who sell alongside us.

It goes on your site, not ours.

There’s no development project on your end — the tool sits inside a single embed on any page of your website, and we handle the setup and testing before it goes live.

It’s genuinely white-label.

Your branding, your domain, and every completed configuration routes straight to your own sales inbox. Your customer is dealing with you.

It’s a catalogue with almost no admin attached.

The full range — camera mounts and pole systems through to access control — is already built in. Nothing for your team to photograph, describe, or spec, and when we add a new product centrally, it appears on your version automatically.

It cuts down the back-and-forth.

The tool only allows valid combinations of mount type, fitting, and finish, so a customer can’t submit a spec that doesn’t exist. That’s fewer clarifying emails before you can price a job.

Every submission is a real lead.

Name, company, email, phone number, and the exact spec they’ve built — not a generic “get in touch” enquiry.

It grows without you lifting a finger.

When we add a new product line to the central catalogue, it appears on your version automatically. No re-briefing a developer, no waiting on an update.
