At Painters Pyramid® Stands, we are devoted to providing high-quality pyramid stands to make painting projects easier. Our founder discovered the need for an improved painter’s pyramid after struggling with flimsy options that easily tipped over while painting his own home. After designing a sturdier pyramid with a wider base, word spread locally about his creation. Based on positive feedback from fellow painters, our founder decided to patent and manufacture the product.
In 2010, Painters Pyramid® Stands was officially launched online to provide our pyramid stands to painters across the country. We are continuously upgrading our pyramids and expanding our product line based on customer feedback. Our focus is on producing affordable and user-friendly solutions for painters of all levels.
Our Mission
The mission of Painters Pyramid® Stands is to simplify painting projects with well-designed tools. We aim to make painters’ lives easier by creating products that are:
- Sturdy – Made of heavy-duty plastic that won’t tip over easily.
- Adjustable – Pyramids can adjust to hold paint cans of various sizes.
- Portable – Lightweight and easy to carry around job sites.
- Affordable – Offered at reasonable prices compared to flimsier models.
We are committed to achieving our mission by listening to customer needs and continuously improving our pyramids. User feedback guides our innovation so we can provide the best possible painting tools.
Our Products
Painters Pyramid® Stands offers several pyramid stand models to suit the needs of all painters:
Classic Pyramid
Our standard Classic Pyramid is built for versatility and durability. It features a wide base and deep channels to securely hold paint cans without tipping. The stand is made of thick plastic to prevent cracking or warping.
The Classic Pyramid adjusts to fit 1-gallon, 1-quart, or 1-pint paint cans. This is our most popular model due to its functionality and budget-friendly price.
Pro Pyramid
The Pro Pyramid has all the features of our Classic model but with enhanced stability. It contains weighted balls inside the base to lower the center of gravity. This prevents tipping even when holding very full paint cans.
The Pro Pyramid is ideal for professional painters that need maximum stability on ladders, scaffolds, or rough outdoor terrain. The weighed base ensures paint won’t spill no matter the conditions.
Extension Pyramid
Our Extension Pyramid allows stacking two pyramids together to create a taller stand. The bottom pyramid holds the paint can while the top portion provides an elevated rest for paint brushes and rollers.
The Extension Pyramid minimizes bending down to dip brushes in paint cans. This prevents back strain and discomfort during long painting sessions.
Angled Pyramid
The Angled Pyramid has a 15 degree tilt to make painting ceilings and high walls easier. The forward slant allows seeing the paint can from above rather than craning your neck sideways.
This stand helps painters comfortably reach tall surfaces without needing to precariously balance on ladders. The angled position also ensures paint brushes glide smoothly across sloped ceilings.
Oversized Pyramid
Our Oversized Pyramid is specifically designed for holding 5-gallon paint buckets. The extra-wide base prevents tipping when using these heavy buckets.
This stand accommodates the large buckets used for big painting jobs. The deep center channel keeps the bucket stable rather than trying to balance it on a bucket handle.
Our Process
We use an innovative design process to create pyramid stands that exceed expectations:
Identifying Needs
The first step is talking to painters to identify unmet needs. We ask about their biggest frustrations so we can design tools to solve those problems.
Prototyping
Next, our team uses the feedback to build design prototypes. We examine factors like weight ratios, plastic durability, and adjustment potential.
Testing
Before launching any new product, we rigorously test prototypes. Our local painters group assists by trying the pyramids and providing improvement suggestions.
Refining
After testing, we refine the product based on results. Enhancements may involve adjusting dimensions, increasing stability, or improving adjustability.
Manufacturing
Once finalized, we mass produce the pyramids using durable plastics and reliable commercial molding techniques. Our production facilities adhere to strict quality control.
Improving
Even after launch, we continue making tweaks based on customer reviews. Our goal is constant improvement to exceed painter expectations.
This thoughtful process allows creating innovative solutions for painters’ needs. We refuse to simply imitate what’s already available.
