ALPINE'S NEW LDS AND MDS FACE-MOUNT HANGERS ENHANCE PRODUCTIVITY
VERNON HILLS, Ill., April 14, 2015 – Alpine's new LDS and MDS Face-Mount Hanger Series
are designed to enhance productivity by speeding and simplifying the construction process.
Engineered to outperform any other comparable face-mount hangers available, these hangers
are easy to install and offer outstanding durability and value. They replace up to four different
series offered by competitors.
The 33 different hangers in the LDS and MDS Series provide higher load-carrying capacities for
all lumber species and load duration factors than comparable products. They also incorporate a
highly efficient design that requires the use of fewer nails. The slant nails are guided by a tent
to help achieve the proper angle during every installation. In addition, an enhanced nailing
option permits even greater load-carrying capacity.
Several hangers also incorporate a unique design with a special tooth that temporarily holds the
hanger in place and facilitates proper installation.
