About Us

The Story. The Products. The Team.

THE STORY

Entrepreneurs look for problems. If they solve them successfully they’ve got themselves a business. Without really knowing that at the start, that’s how Brian and Dave got Lansing Housing Products started. In 2003, to keep the business from moving out of Lansing, and taking jobs with it, they bought the business. Dave was a salesman. Brian was a banker. Of course they could figure it out. Big hail was a big problem in the Plains States. They came up with a security screen that beat hail and, as it happened, beat vandalism, too. That success attracted new problems and new opportunities. In 2006 child safety advocates in Minneapolis asked Brian and Dave to see if they could make a child safety screen that would protect small children from window-fall injuries. They did, working with The Center for Industrial Research and Service (CIRAS) at Iowa State University. The new design received a patent in 2017. This Tough Tek Metals® (ToughTek) child safety screen got the attention of public housing and military housing agencies all across the U.S. It is now the product development and marketing focus of the company.

What Clients Say About Security Doors

We chose the Lansing Housing Products ProVia model #460 3-lite entry door for our 96 unit complex because we wanted to replace the doors we had with an attractive but heavy-duty steel door. We are very pleased with the quality of these doors and with customer service for making this process as easy as possible.

I have completed several projects using Lansing’s screen doors on public housing units. I have been extremely pleased with Lansing’s performance and the quality of their products.
