Process

01

Site review

02

Drawing coordination

Prepare shop drawings and coordinate guard, handrail, tread, connection, and finish details with the project team.

03

Fabrication

Cut, fit, weld, and check the steel in the shop so field installation is controlled and predictable.

04

Finishing

Powder coating, galvanizing, stainless finishing, or paint preparation is selected for the exposure and design intent.

05

Installation

Install with attention to protection, alignment, field fit, and final coordination with adjacent trades.
