What does a metal fabricator do?
A metal fabricator takes raw materials like steel, stainless steel, and aluminum and transforms them into finished components or structures. This involves cutting, bending, welding, drilling, and assembling metal parts according to project specifications and engineered drawings.
At Avangard Steel, our metal fabricators in Vancouver handle everything from precision shop drawings to on-site installation. Typical tasks include:
- Reading blueprints and architectural/engineering drawings
- Measuring and cutting metal beams, posts, and plates
- Welding and assembling custom staircases, railings, and frames
- Applying protective finishes like galvanizing or powder coating
- Installing completed structures such as fences, canopies, and industrial platforms
- Ensuring compliance with BC building codes and safety standards
In short, a fabricator turns your design or structural requirements into a durable, safe, and functional steel solution built to last in BC’s coastal climate.
Why Custom vs Prefab?
- Exact fit: Designed to your layout and tolerances for faster installation
- Better performance: Engineered for BC codes, loads and seismic considerations
- Design freedom: Match your architecture with slim profiles and premium finishes
- Lower lifecycle cost: Durable coatings and stainless details reduce maintenance
