What We Do

Our Services

Structural Steel

Structural steel fabrication for residential and commercial applications, with a special emphasis on AESS—detailed to perfection. From 1 to 3,000 tons, we have the means to get your project vertical.

Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel (AESS) demands precision beyond standard fabrication. Every weld, every connection, every surface finish is visible in the final installation.

Architectural Metal

Custom railings, staircases, canopies, and facades. We also specialize in aluminum and stainless steel fabrication—where design vision meets structural integrity.

Multi-material expertise allows us to match the right metal to your application—whether it's the warmth of weathering steel or the clean lines of brushed stainless.

Special Projects

Turning the strength of steel into artistic expression. From simple architectural elements to monumental public art—we embrace difficult, artistic types of AESS using laser welding and cutting-edge technologies.

Public art, sculptural installations, and complex geometric forms. We collaborate with artists and architects to realize ambitious visions that push the boundaries of what steel can become.

Repair & Restoration

Bringing worn metalwork back to life with the care and dedication these projects demand. Experienced in structural rehabilitation and the precision historic work requires.

Restoration work requires a different mindset—matching original craftsmanship while meeting modern structural requirements. We approach each project with patience and respect for the original work.

Design Consultation

LiDAR scanning, 3D modeling, and collaborative planning from concept to completion. AISC and D1.1 compliant—not just as a requirement, but as a principle.

Early collaboration prevents costly field modifications. Our in-house detailing team works directly with architects and engineers to resolve conflicts before steel is cut.

Installation

From onsite TIG welding aluminum to 500-ton cranes installing tons of structural steel—full-service delivery and professional installation ensuring every piece is perfectly placed.

Erection capabilities range from intimate residential settings requiring precision handwork to large commercial projects demanding heavy lift coordination. One team, concept to completion.

Craftsmanship Meets Innovation

We're driven by intelligent, deliberate design and a genuine passion for solving hard problems. We thrive where complexity pushes limits—turning challenging ideas into buildable, durable realities.
