A.Perry – SleeperSecure Steel Sleeper Brackets
SleeperSecure is said to be revolutionising timber sleeper installations by offering a purpose-designed system that eliminates the common pitfalls of traditional methods. The range has been engineered for maximum strength, durability, and ease of use, allowing both professionals and DIYers to achieve superior, long-lasting results. A. Perry offers a full range of brackets for every type of sleeper installation along with an efficient retail solution and POS display. A. Perry is also the manufacturer of the range, ensuring consistency and quality of the supply. Traditional methods of installing sleeper beds are often done by fastening timber posts to the sleeper and concreting them into the ground. As well as being far more time consuming, they can also rot over time. SleeperSecure now offers a dedicated fixing system that ensures a secure hold with minimal effort, making it incredibly easy to install, even for a non-professional. All brackets are made from heavy-duty steel, providing exceptional corrosion resistance. With full marketing support, a compact retail merchandising solution, POS, and consumer literature supplied completely free of charge for all customers that buy into the range. For retalers, stocking SleeperSecure means offering a premium, problem-solving solution that customers trust, delivering strong sales growth.
The SleeperSecure range is designed to cater to every sleeper installation need, and with less than a full year on the market, A. Perry has already expanded the range based on market feedback. The judges said: “A very clever and useful product range that offers a
strong and secure solution for both amateur gardeners and professional landscapers alike.”
