Action Industries
Helping dealers and distributors of all sizes get the garage door parts they need in-hand and on-time.
We were asked by Pure Pro to migrate their existing BigCommerce store from the antiquated Blueprint framework to the new Stencil framework. Working closely with the Pure Pro team, IntuitSolutions designed, developed and launched a custom BigCommerce Stencil theme on PurePro.com. We then implemented custom add-ons to enhance the UX.
The Design
A fully responsive design on BigCommerce while staying true to the company’s established brand.

Their Story
Since launching in-house manufacturing operations in 2012, Action Industries has carved out a leading position in the garage door supply sector. The company serves a diverse B2B clientele, from small enterprises to major distributors, helping them save big with manufacturer-direct pricing.
With an extensive selection of premium products backed by industry expertise, Action Industries aims to satisfy customers from the point of purchase to post-sale support. The company's dedication is further exemplified by its robust online resources, designed to assist customers in finding, purchasing, and installing the perfect product with ease.
The Challenge
As Action Industries sought to enhance their customer experience and optimize operational efficiency, they realized the need for an ecommerce solution to better support their evolving business. While their prior platform once served their needs, the company aspired to leverage more advanced customization and scalability features to keep pace with the rapidly changing digital marketplace.
With an increasing customer base and expanding product catalog, Action Industries embarked on a search for a modern ecommerce platform capable of accommodating its dynamic needs and ambitious growth plans. They turned to the ecommerce migration experts at IntuitSolutions to move their online store to a more robust solution – BigCommerce.
The Solution
The best ecommerce platforms for selling B2B ensure your site not only meets today’s challenges, but accommodates new requirements as technology evolves and business needs change. With this in mind, Action Industries chose to move to BigCommerce to give their business a solid foundation for growth, scalability, and innovation.
Our BigCommerce migration experts developed a custom solution for Action Industries, which included:
- Custom design and responsive development on the latest BigCommerce Cornerstone-based theme
- Consulting on data management and redirects to preserve SEO value
- Database migration and integration with SAP ERP and Jasper PIM systems
- Middleware enhancements to support B2B functionality
- API and third-party module/apps integration

Site Customizations & Enhancements
Some highlights of the unique solutions we implemented for their new BigCommerce store.
Custom Slide-Out Menu
A modern, space-saving slide-out menu enhances the browsing experience by neatly organizing product categories in a compact design, allowing users to quickly locate their desired items.
Image-Driven CTA Enhancments
The new site build introduced more intuitive, image-focused Calls-to-Action (CTA), using compelling visuals to capture attention and effectively direct users to the next step in the purchase process.
"Log in for Pricing" Feature
The "Log in for Pricing" feature is a common way B2B ecommerce merchants restrict pricing visibility to registered users. This creates an exclusive environment that encourages account sign-ups and reserves detailed pricing for high-intent visitors.
Add-to-Cart Upsell
One of our most popular add-ons, the Add-to-Cart Upsell feature showcases related products in a non-intrusive carousel within a popup modal. Customers can effortlessly select options, add items, navigate to the checkout, or continue shopping.
Product Option Tooltip
Action Industries elevates the online shopping experience with hover-activated Product Option Tooltips on the Product Page, providing essential shipping cost information in an space-efficient, interactive format.
Reorder Functionality
For returning customers, Action Industries introduces a convenient "Reorder" feature, accessible upon login. This allows registered users to effortlessly repurchase their past items, simplifying the process of maintaining a consistent supply of essential products.
Quick Order Page
Designed to expedite the ordering process, the Quick Order functionality enables users to swiftly search and order products using either the product name or SKU, complete with predictive text features.
Notable Apps & Integrations
We tested, adjusted, and updated several third party integrations with the following providers:
- Integration with ERP Solution, SAP Business One
- Integration with Product Information Management (PIM) System, Jasper
- Marketing Integration with Klaviyo
Without great partners like IntuitSolutions, BigCommerce would not be where it is today.
