Materials & Finishes
Every custom steel design requires the right material and finish for its environment and purpose. We work with:
- Mild steel: Strong and cost-effective for most construction applications
- Stainless steel (304/316): Perfect for coastal or high-moisture environments like Vancouver and North Shore
- Hot-dip galvanized steel: Ideal for exterior use and long-term corrosion resistance
- Powder-coated steel: Provides clean color finishes and added durability
