What are your standard business hours?

Can you work with both individuals and businesses?
Yes! We’re happy to provide custom stainless steel fabrication solutions for individual boat owners and commercial developers alike. No job is too big or too small for us to handle.
Can you replace hardware that has been damaged?
Absolutely. For example, we frequently work with boat owners who need to replicate OEM hardware that is no longer available. Our keen attention to detail and extensive knowledge of the marine industry allows us to ensure results that are both structurally sound and beautiful.
How long have you been in business?
Our local company has been offering expert stainless steel solutions for over 30 years.
What types of marine products can you design and manufacture?
We’re equipped to fabricate a wide range of marine structures, including bow rails, stern rails, T-tops, radar arches, stemheads, swim platforms, and so much more. We ensure every component is tailored to fit each unique boat’s make and model.
Why do you recommend Type 316L stainless steel for marine use?
Type 316L contains molybdenum, which is more resistant to pitting and corrosion in saltwater environments compared to standard stainless steel. This extra durability will help your hardware retain its strength and brilliant shine for years to come.
Could your team add a radar arch or T-top to a boat that didn't originally have one?
Sure! We specialize in designing and fabricating unique arches and T-tops that complement the original lines of each vessel while still providing strong mounting points for electronics, lights, and fishing equipment.
Can you work from architectural blueprints or CAD files?
Yes, we can work directly from professional architectural drawings or CAD files to ensure every component is manufactured to the exact specifications of your project.
What finishes are available for architectural projects?
Beyond our high-buff mirror polish, we offer brushed satin finishes, which are very popular for interior fixtures since they hide fingerprints and require less maintenance.
Can you ship large products, such as T-tops or railings?
Yes, we regularly ship custom hardware across North America. We take great care in packaging our products to ensure they arrive at your location without any scratches or structural damage.
What is the average lead time for a custom fabrication project?
Lead times vary depending on the complexity of the project and current shop capacity. Generally, custom marine work can take between 3 to 6 weeks. However, we recommend reaching out to us as early as possible to ensure you get the custom solution you need on time.
