Northwind Cycles locator running inside its example websiteReal widget

A real locator capture. This version is designed for a national dealer network where certification and service capability matter as much as distance. Open the full-size example to search it. Northwind Cycles is an invented concept brand using sample data.

Built around the search

Make a large partner network useful at the moment of intent.

A directory proves that partners exist. A good dealer locator helps the customer decide which one can actually solve the job.

  1. 01

    Filter by capability or accreditation.

    Use categories for product ranges, installation services, certifications or partner tiers, then let customers narrow the network before they call.

  2. 02

    Show more than a field of pins.

    Pair the map with a results grid that keeps dealer names, contact details and the next action readable across desktop and mobile.

  3. 03

    Grow without rebuilding the page.

    Self-serve plans are tested up to 10,000 locations. Enterprise covers 10,000+ locations or custom requirements, with the search architecture scoped around your network.

Search and discovery

A visitor finds the nearest useful location without scanning the whole list.

The locator opens, the visitor types a town or postcode, and results reorder by distance. Search, filters, labels and layout are settings you control, not fixed behaviour.

Start with the spreadsheet you already maintain. Import a CSV, review the locations, then keep the same embed as the list changes.

Install on Custom HTML

Publish the locator without rebuilding your website.

Add the generated script to the page body on any website. The locator stays managed in Handled, so a network update does not become a web-development ticket.

Paste in the page body

<div id="biz-locator-root"></div>
<script src="https://cdn.handledlocal.com/widget.js"
  data-site-id="your-site-id" async></script>

Three steps to publish

  1. 1Open the HTML template or page where the locator should appear.
  2. 2Paste the complete embed code into the page body.
  3. 3Deploy the page, then open its public URL to verify it.

Before you choose

Questions buyers ask about this setup.

Can customers filter dealers by service or certification?
Yes. A location can carry categories, and those categories can be exposed as filters for services, product lines, certifications, territories or partner tiers.
How many dealers can it hold?
Self-serve plans are tested up to 10,000 locations. Enterprise covers 10,000+ locations or custom requirements, with volume, search behaviour and engineering scoped around your network.
Can each dealer have its own contact details?
Yes. Each location can show its own address, phone number, website, opening hours and categories, with the visible actions controlled in the design settings.
Who pays for the map traffic?
You connect your own Mapbox or Google Maps key. That provider bills map usage directly; the Handled subscription covers the locator product, location capacity and team seats.

Give every qualified dealer a useful place on the map.

Start from the dealer-network design, import a representative sample and test the exact filters your customers will use before you commit.
