What is Metal Fabrication?
Metal fabrication is the process of creating structures and machinery from raw metal materials. This intricate process involves transforming raw metal into functional and aesthetic products through various techniques, including cutting, bending, welding, and assembling. By utilizing these methods, metal fabricators can produce a wide range of metal components tailored to specific needs. The metal fabrication process is a value-added service that requires a blend of skills and expertise, from initial design and engineering to final manufacturing and quality control, ensuring that the end products meet precise specifications and standards.

History of Metal Fabrication
The history of metal fabrication dates to ancient times when early humans discovered metals and began using simple techniques like hammering to shape them. Over the centuries, these rudimentary methods evolved significantly. The Industrial Revolution marked a pivotal shift in the metal fabrication industry, introducing steam power and mechanization, which transformed how metal was processed. During this era, key metal fabrication processes such as forging and sheet metal work saw substantial advancements. Today, the industry continues to evolve with cutting-edge technology, including computer-aided design (CAD) and computer numerical control (CNC) machining, which have revolutionized the precision and efficiency of metal fabrication processes.
Metal Fabrication Processes
Metal fabrication encompasses a variety of processes, each crucial to transforming raw metal into finished products. Cutting is the foundational step, involving techniques like sawing, drilling, and laser cutting to shape raw materials into manageable pieces. Bending follows, allowing metal to be shaped without removing any material, using hydraulic equipment and CAD/CAM capabilities to achieve precise angles and curves. Welding is essential for joining metal pieces, employing methods such as MIG, TIG, and arc welding to ensure strong, durable connections. Machining involves removing parts of metal to create specific shapes or designs, utilizing tools like mills, drills, and lathes. Finally, finishing enhances both the appearance and functionality of metal products through painting, plating, and polishing, ensuring the fabricated metal products meet the highest standards of quality and durability.
Metal fabrication plays a crucial role across many industries, from large-scale industrial metal fabrication manufacturing to structural and commercial applications. Whether for construction, or ornamental designs, fabricated metal products provide strength, functionality and durability.

When it comes to custom metal fabrication, we work with a variety of raw materials, each offering unique benefits for your project. Some of the most common material types include:
Sheet Metal Steel
Steel is known for its long lifespan and exceptional durability. Its versatility allows it to be easily molded and bent, making it ideal for both functional and unique fencing and handrail designs. Stronger than aluminum, steel offers enhanced structural integrity, making it a popular choice for taller or more demanding fencing projects.
Aluminum metal components
Aluminum is significantly lighter than steel, offering versatile material that is both malleable and durable. Its ability to be easily shaped into various designs without compromising strength makes it a popular choice for many applications. Thanks to advancements in Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding, aluminum can now be efficiently joined, further enhancing its use in custom metal fabrication.
Because of its lightweight nature, aluminum is quicker and easier to install than steel, making it ideal for temporary fencing, construction projects, and cost-effective solutions. It offers a great balance between longevity and affordability, providing a more durable alternative to wood at a lower price than steel.
For added protection and a sleek, uniform finish, we also offer powder coating. This process not only enhances the appearance of the metal but also adds an extra layer of durability, helping to guard against rust and corrosion.
