"Skyline Metal Fabrication's attention to detail, flexibility, expert craftsmanship, excellence, and ultimate pursuit of perfection is what immediately comes to mind when I think about my experience with Ramiro, Heather, and crew.  After vetting about 10 local companies for my iron fence project, Skyline was head and shoulders above the competition.  For example, one of the questions I asked all companies was "How much distance would separate each post on this property?"  Until Ramiro, all companies responded with a generic, canned answer.  Ramiro, on the other hand, took out his tape measure and proceeded to measure each side of the property.  He then sat down at my patio table, grabbed a pen and piece of paper, and calculated the exact distance.  To the inch.  In addition, he explained that this distance would vary based on the fence height, picket thickness overall weight of each section, and other factors (our fence is 6").  He also shared in detail the nature of designing an iron fence and discussed the endless options available, giving my wife and I great ideas for our project.  I knew then and there Skyline was hired before the quote arrived.  Needless to say, we will be hiring Skyline for future projects and can't recommend them enough.   "

Welding questions, answered by experts

The difference between a lintel and a beam is what loads each is responsible for supporting. A lintel is a type of beam that is responsible only for supporting the load above an opening, such as a window or door, and transfers the weight to the side walls around an opening. A beam supports the slab and transfers the load to nearby columns, which then disperse the load to the ground.

Lally columns are named after their founder, John Lally, who owned a construction company in the 1800s. He invented the columns as a means of providing temporary support for beams and rafters in homes his company was renovating. The original Lally columns were also made of steel, although the inventory used a thicker gauge metal, which provided additional support for larger projects and long-term structural solutions.

Yes, professional fabricators can create custom pieces, including railings, sculptures, signage, and architectural elements.

Most projects take 1-4 weeks, depending on material sourcing, design intricacy, and required finishing treatments like powder coating or galvanization.

Choosing the right metal fabricator for your project begins with research. Find a reputable fabrication company by searching for reputable contractors in your area, and then reviewing photos of their previous work, customer reviews, and photos of the company’s workshop.

Once you’ve narrowed down the list, contact the companies to ask about the types of metal fabrication projects they specialize and inquire about guarantees and warranties on workmanship. You should also ensure the company uses high-quality material, and ask about the schedule and turnaround time for your proposed project.
