Simpson Strong-Tie Adds Dealer Locator to Deck Planner Software™ and Pergola Planner Software™

Pleasanton, Calif. — Simpson Strong-Tie, the leader in engineered structural connectors and building solutions, today announced an upgrade to its online Deck Planner Software and Pergola Planner Software that will include the addition of a dealer locator to help builders effectively manage project logistics and costs.

The Dealer Locator function in the Deck Planner and Pergola Planner tools generates a Dealer Location page listing the nearest dealers within a five-mile radius of the user’s zip code, and is included as part of the normal report output, which already includes a list of all materials needed to build the deck and pergola projects.

Featuring 3D software, design guides, and an in-app user tutorial, Deck Planner and Pergola Planner are free, web-based design solutions to help contractors, lumberyards, and homeowners quickly and easily design dream backyards. The programs provide a suite of intuitive tools and resources for designing and building stronger, more beautiful pergolas, decks, and outdoor spaces.
