From The Chief

Deputy Chief Books Martin

"We are thrilled to have a platform back in our department after several years of running a ladder. Pierce and MacQueen truly listened to our needs. Seeing the attention they put into small details, down to the drawer slides we prefer, makes us confident the apparatus was designed exactly how we want it."
