FAQs
WHAT ARE SOME THINGS TO BE CONSIDERED BEFORE GETTING A LAB DESIGNED?
The customer should factor in building construction and infrastructure. Things, such as electrical wiring and amp service supplied, plumbing, HVAC, central vacuum lines, data lines, air and gas lines must be planned for in advance. Any specific town codes or ordinances should be reviewed by the customer so there are no surprises or restrictions. Parking, doorways, steps, etc that may prohibit proper work flow for install including the infrastructure previously mentioned.
HOW LONG DOES A LAB TAKE TO BUILD AND SHIP?
Once the design is finalized, all drawing files must be approved and signed off. Then a valid purchase order is submitted to Handler. Depending upon the scope of work, lead time can be anywhere from 6 – 16 weeks

Lab Profile Doc
“…For my partners Todd and Shanelle Reid and myself, this was the first time creating a Laboratory from scratch. During the buildup phase there were many meetings and discussions that needed to take place regarding cabinetry and equipment, and it was refreshing for me to see Rick and his team showing up to these meetings in person, even though they did not live in the area. There is a sense of security and trust that comes with working with someone who is as hands-on as Rick, he was very transparent when discussing the best options for our Laboratory; even when a certain item was not Handler manufactured.
Rick and his team showed up on time to assemble the cabinetry, work benches and machinery for our lab with the greatest of efficiency, ease and instructions. I myself, playing the role of project manager at the time, am better on the operations side of this business because of the personal tutorials provided by Rick Laduca and his team, regarding safety, usage and upkeep.
Together, we took the mental vision for this company and made it a historic reality. Thank you to Rick and your team for all your help!”
