Krauss Welding &amp; Fabrication

My project was simple, I just needed to get square bars cut and some holes drilled for lag screws…read more However, it wasn't the simplicity that mattered. From the start, with the initial phone call, Mike was very accommodating. Even though the project was easy, he asked me the nature of what I was doing so that he could wrap his head around the context of the part he was working on. Cool, he was nicely engaged. His shop is clean and it's one of those places where everything seems to have their own place. Like any place of this type, there were pieces of work in progress. I asked what he liked to do and he said they do a lot of gates. But what he really likes to do? He love doing metal sculptures. On the outside of his shop is one of his works and I included a picture of it. He had my project done in a jiffy. It's one of those times when a vendor exceeds your expectations and all done with a smile.

With absolutely no idea how it could be done, I asked Beyond Fabrication to provide a solution to…read morereplace my old, rickety front fence gate which had only one somewhat stable post holding it up. The solution Mike offered worked perfectly (steel posts and framing) and now I have a front gate that works beautifully, is much more secure, and makes the front of my home look so much better. Mike was patient and easy to work with. Thanks Mike for the outstanding work.

Got a response from 1 with an outrageous quote almost disrespectful. One never followed up even after confirming on the phone they received it (It's been 3 weeks already). The others just never responded. It wasn't until I called Microform which they ALSO ignored my quote request and the representative couldn't even find my quote email (I assume they even deleted it). I was then referred by the representative to Van Dyke Fabrication who is able to do both personal and business jobs. I look them up and realize they are a good distance away from me about 35 minutes. I was shopping locally but I realized at this point why not. Well, I'm thankful for the referral because this fabrication shop is not just good, IT'S QUALITY. I was able to finally get this crossbeam fiasco done after searching for a shop for an entire MONTH. When I originally called, Barbara directed me to email John with a quote request and I was able to drop it off the same day! John even stayed extra to see the part, just to clear up what I needed exactly (He already started the day very early too). John exceeded what I expected! He told me he would have to cut the cross beam by hand with a plasma cutter since it wouldn't fit in the machines due to it's shape, which I was completely happy with since I just needed it cut open. However, when I went to pick up the part, it was replicated ENTIRELY with my request since it was easier than cutting it. Matched and fit just like the old part with improved mounting holes for more tolerance, HOLY SMOKES. This was such a nice gesture of him, it's hard to find honest businesses like this these days.

Glen and his son did an amazing job fabricating a custom gate in just a few weeks. I asked that they take the design from the existing gate at the model home. The end result was a gate that not only exceeded the quality but was 100 times sturdier than the flimsy one at the model. After they installed the gate I had a little problem with the strike plate alignment after it settled (the thing is 160lbs, so I was expecting some settling). They came back out shortly after to install a new strike plate which fixed the problem.

The process was super smooth from start to finish. I brought the parts to the shop, and within a few days I had them back. Surefire did an excellent job. I really couldn't be happier with the results.
