Work continues...


We're just not as good about the final step: uploading pictures onto the internet! Here are a couple more projects from the last several months. 


Bi-Folding Steel Doors

Large, bi-folding, double doors welded to existing 8'x8' posts. This pair of doors are 9' tall.

From the inside. Eventually the owner wants to put in wooden french doors on the inside for everyday use.

Simple locking system. Broom stick used as an example!

Handicap Railing




Porch Railing

A tricky little curved railing on this poured concrete and block porch.






Pan Deck

We did the entire deck, posts, and beams down at a house remodel on Lake Tulloch last spring before our Europe trip.

Updates!

So we've been lucky enough to be able to do some traveling during this past summer. And with all good things, it has ended, and we are busy again back at the shop. Here are a couple of projects that we have finished in the past year (more to come) but never got around to posting them onto the blog.

Basement Doors

We built the entire steel frame along with the door pulls. The door hinges are attached to angle iron running up either side of the entry way. Even with the doors spanning a 9' opening, a person can ride on the doors as they swing open with no problems.

Dead leg attached to the inside of the left door


One piece construction out of solid 1" round bar. Tapered down with out Little Giant Power Hammer

Deck Gate

Built to match the already installed Fortress Railing system on the deck.  Side gate, with locking mechanism and self closing hinges.

Name Plate

Plasma cut out by hand, then patina added for age.


Fire Pokers and more
