Family Tradition Treestands: Manufacturing Excellence
In our Hunting community there doesn't seem to be many products that are truly original anymore. What you see nowadays are slight improvements of products from year to year. Every now and again there is a jump in the evolution of products creating something totally unique in the market. Family Tradition TreestandsTM is that unique jump in evolution!
Whether it's our High-Heat Powder Coating over Galvanized Steel, our first in the industry Dual-Rail Ladder Stands or hand webbing the nylon seats for the ultimate in comfort, nothing comes even close to the thought and engineering we put into each design. Our only concern is using the highest quality material available in order to ensure you the strongest, longest lasting and most comfortable Treestands found anywhere! Family Tradition TreestandsTM is blazing a new trail in the wilderness and setting the standard in the industry! Can you say the same about the treestands in your woods?
Family Tradition Treestands will continue to lead the industry in terms of quality and comfort. How are we a step above other stands? It starts with quality galvanized tubular steel for added structural integrity and rust resistance. We then have our craftsmen bend and weld each stand. Our stands are fabricated 100% in the U.S.A. so that we can maintain much higher quality control and keep jobs right here! Then each piece has an extra-durable powder coating baked on so that our stands will provide season after season of enjoyment. Lastly, we hand weave webbing on all our seats providing unparalleled comfort so you can spend a full day in the field looking for that elusive Buck! Once you've tried a Family Tradition TreestandTM you'll be a Family Member for life, no other stand will compare!
Family Tradition TreestandsTM - Manufacturing Excellence
We start out using galvanized steel for a layer of rust protection. Also, we use tubular steel for its added structural strength when compared to square tubing.
The durable powder coat finish on Family Tradition Treestands is baked on under very high heat
We use a rough powder coat finish for added grip for your shoes or boots
Three out of four of our ladder stands are built from 100% welded designs. When delivered you receive a completely assembled top section and two ladder sections. This adds unequaled strength and rigidity to our tree stands
We were the first in the industry to implement condensation drain holes on all of our pipe
Our platform designs are either supported by or rest on welded galvanized steel pipe. We do not use cables for hunter support in any of our product designs.
Our hang-on stand incorporates heavy duty 1,900# tensile strength chain enclosed in a rubber sleeve to support the standing platform
Our tri-pod stands are built with pre-assembled and welded platforms for unequaled rigidity and weight to strength ratio.
All stands come standard with 2,000# breaking strength ratchet straps
We use grade 8 bolts and nylon lock-nuts on all structural stress points
Design and Engineering Innovation
Our designs result in extremely strong and rigid structures. We use a special engineered system we call Radius Flow Technology. "RFT" allows Family Tradition TreestandsTM unequaled rigidity at a very low weight to strength ratio in addition to maximum strength at critical stress points
Beginning in 1992 we were the first to use a double rail system on our ladder stands
We have incorporated into each stand our industry exclusive ergonomically designed webbed seat. You will not need foam cushions or pads with a Family Tradition Stand. Our seats are designed to take the load off your back, hips and legs resulting in less fatigue and much more comfort as you wait for the big Bucks to pass by your stand.
Our seating is exclusive to our designs and is unequaled in fit & comfort
All of our stands incorporate extra reinforcement and bracing all the way around. Some experts who have evaluated our stands have said that we over engineer our products (and that's a good thing we assure you!)
Our hang-on stand was the first in the industry to use a pivot stop seat
We were the first in the industry to make a round tri-pod
Tree Stands Designed and Built by Hunters
Our ladder stands come with a gun rest included, The Rifle Rest is encased by the highest quality foam padding available on the market
Our ultra rigid ladder stands do not require horizontal bracing rods against the tree for support. You can set up to hunt in a fraction of the time needed with other stands without sacrificing safety.
One of our sayings at Family Tradition is "If we can't make a stand and put our kids in it to hunt by themselves we will not come to market with that product". Our families hunt in the Tree Stands we design and build.
Our stands are completely original designs that came to life after years of hunting experience and exposure to every environment that hunters will encounter using our products
We believe that when young people are given responsible and safe exposure to outdoor sports such as hunting and fishing that lifelong memories are formed and a greater respect for God's creation is instilled in our children.
