The short answer

SBFS builds 3D configurators for perforated and laser-cut panel manufacturers: architects and buyers pick the pattern, material and size, see the panel in 3D and get a price without a catalog PDF. The demo below is a working example. A configurator is priced in ranges, from $2,500 setup for a visual configurator to $50,000 and up for the full channel, each with a monthly fee.

Loading the configurator

01— The problem

Quoting perforated panels by hand

Perforated panels are specified, not picked off a shelf: pattern, hole pitch, material and sheet size all change the look and the price. Architects and buyers compare patterns from catalog PDFs and then email for a quote. Your team prices each request by hand and checks it against what your tooling can produce. A spec that cannot be made comes back after the quote has gone out.

02— What it does

What the configurator does

The demo above shows what a buyer sees. A build for you starts from your own products, rules and prices.

In this demo

Hole pattern and size

Round, square, slot or hexagon in up to three sizes, punched through the sheet, with the open area in the spec.

Metal and finish

Aluminum or steel powder-coated in four colors, or stainless and weathering steel left raw.

Sheet size and gauge

Width and height sliders and three gauges. Tall panels on standoffs or posts move to a heavier gauge.

Mounting and backlight

Wall standoffs, a perimeter frame or freestanding posts, with an LED wash behind wall-mounted panels.

AI mode

Describe what you want in plain words and the assistant sets the options for you, inside the same rules.

Live price

The estimate updates with every change and lists what each option adds. The prices in this demo are samples; yours come from your own price list.

In your build

Your catalog and your price list

Your products, option names and prices, embedded in your site or Shopify.

Option rules

Combinations your shop cannot build are blocked as the buyer configures, so what leaves the browser is buildable.

Quotes and leads

Each configuration reaches your team as a lead or a quote, with every option attached.

Production outputs and integrations

Any size the buyer types in (within your fabrication rules), files for production, and a connection to your online store or ERP.

Quote turnaround

Door Builder

Quotes that took Door Builder's sales team about two and a half weeks now take a dealer four minutes. SBFS built all of it: a configurator tied to how the shop floor routes each door, tiered pricing for commercial buyers at checkout, and a portal for the dealer network. It only offers doors the shop can build, so production never gets a quote it cannot make.

05— FAQ

Questions about perforated panel configurators.

Straight answers. If your question is not below, ask it on the call.

We price in ranges, because a configurator that changes colors and one that resizes the product within your fabrication rules are different jobs. Each tier is a one-time setup plus a monthly fee for running and improving it. Entry: $2,500–$5,000 setup and $150–$300 a month, for a visual configurator of one product or family, with colors, materials and options, embedded in your site or Shopify. Mid: $6,000–$12,000 setup and $300–$600 a month, for options with rules, automatic pricing and each configuration sent to you as a lead or a quote, for a fixed product range. Parametric: $20,000–$40,000 setup and $500–$1,500 a month, for any size the buyer types in, your fabrication rules, files for production, and a connection to your online store or ERP. Forge: from $50,000 setup and a monthly fee scoped with you, for your whole sales operation, from catalog to checkout, on a platform you own. Diagnose is included and ends with a quote inside your tier.

The full channel typically ships in six weeks: about a week of Diagnose, four weeks of build, one of launch. Juan is on every call, and you see working builds on your own test site every week.

Yes. The patterns in the demo above are examples. In your build, the patterns, pitches and size limits come from what your tooling can produce.

Yes, in our Parametric tier: outputs for production and integration with your online store or ERP, scoped in Diagnose for your machines.

Yes. That is the demo we offer: book a call, tell us about one product you sell today, and we show it configured in 3D with your options. If it is a fit, Diagnose, about a week and included, ends with a spec and a quote inside your tier.

You do: the source code and the data, with no license or per-seat fee. The repository can live in your GitHub or GitLab.
