Quality Standards
Service Expectations
These are the quality standards our Welding & Metal Fabrication professionals follow to ensure you get the best service.
Essential Standards
Weld Strength & Penetration
Welds show full penetration with no cracks, porosity or cold joints that would compromise strength.
Structural Load Rating
Gates, railings and steel structures are fabricated from the correct gauge/grade steel to safely bear intended loads.
Corrosion Protection
Metalwork is properly primed and painted/galvanized to resist rust, especially at weld points.
Dimensional Fit Accuracy
Fabricated items such as gates, burglar-proofing and railings fit their openings precisely and align square and level.
Smooth Moving Parts
Gates and moving elements open/close smoothly on properly aligned hinges/rollers without grinding.
Weld Seam Finishing
Weld seams are ground smooth and flush where a clean visual finish is required.
Welding Safety Practice
Welder uses proper PPE and fire precautions, protecting nearby surfaces/people from sparks and fumes.
Hardware & Lock Quality
Bolts, hinges, locks and latches used are rated for outdoor/security use and properly fitted.
Additional Quality Standards
Decorative Detailing
Ornamental scrollwork or design patterns are executed with crisp, symmetrical detail.
Metal Waste Cleanup
Metal shavings, offcuts and welding waste are cleared from the site after the job.
