Maxwell Oil Tools

Maxwell Oil Tools needed a modern website that mirrored their cutting-edge engineering approach. I developed a custom WordPress theme from the ground up — based on unique designs provided by the client — with no repeating templates or pre-built page builders. Each page is its own tailored experience, structured specifically for its content.

While I wasn't involved in the design process, I translated the mockups into precise HTML, CSS, JS, and PHP code, developing several reusable components such as contact and CTA blocks. Elementor was selectively integrated to allow for content editing on certain areas, like technical accordions for Spec Sheets and Case Studies.

One of the project's standout features is the highly customized scroll-based animation on product pages like Helix, where content slides vertically while a diamond-shaped element remains fixed — created through bespoke JavaScript and CSS.

The site also includes a heavily modified Slick Slider integration — with extended next/prev controls and supplementary navigation elements beyond what the native script supports.

I built approximately 95% of this project before leaving the company, handling both the frontend and backend code — but did not manage the final launch.

Features:

• Custom-built WordPress theme
  Every page has its own layout – no template repetition throughout the site.

• Reusable content blocks
  Components like contact forms, CTA sections, and other elements are reused across pages.

• Elementor used selectively
  Elementor editor is used for managing Spec Sheets and Case Studies using accordion format.

• Custom scroll animation & layout
  Pages like Helix use custom JS and CSS to create a fixed diamond element while content scrolls underneath.

• Advanced Slick Slider customization
  Slider was deeply modified with unique next/prev controls and additional interface elements beyond standard Slick features.

• Project completion status
  I completed about 95% of the site before leaving the company – others finalized the launch.

• My role

  • HTML/CSS implementation
  • JavaScript logic and enhancements
  • PHP templating for WordPress
  • No graphic design involvement
