The service
What custom metal fabrication (tables, shelves & frames) is, what a visit covers and where the line is.
The short answer
Custom metal fabrication is the making of one-off pieces such as tables, bases, shelving, racks and frames from steel, stainless steel or aluminum. Custom Metal Fabrication (Tables, Shelves & Frames) in Pacifica is booked through pros who cover its 1 ZIP codes, in neighborhoods such as Linda Mar, Rockaway Beach, and Sharp Park. In Pacifica, the dry season from late spring to fall is the easiest time for outside work, and the fall calendar fills before the first big rain. Each fabricator on NorTech prices the piece and sets a warranty on their own, and you pick the maker.

Before you book custom metal fabrication (tables, shelves & frames)
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Sketch the piece and its size
Draw a simple picture with width, depth and height. Add photos of designs you like.
Measure the path as well as the spot
Check doorways, hallways, stairs and elevator size. A welded piece is rigid, so a table that does not fit through a door cannot be taken apart afterward unless it is designed in sections.
Decide on the top first
If you want wood, glass or stone, choose it or have it in hand. The metal base is built to its thickness, weight and overhang, and stone or glass tops have special support rules.
Be clear about the load
Say what the shelves must hold or whether people will sit, lean or stand on the table. Heavy loads call for thicker steel, more bracing and wall anchors, and the pro can design for it.
Pick the finish for the room
Raw, clear, powder coat and brushed stainless all behave differently around water, heat and hands. Tell the pro where the piece lives and who uses it, and ask for a finish sample.
Ask about the process and approvals
A typical process is measuring, drawing, approval, cutting, welding, grinding, finishing and delivery. Ask your pro how they handle changes after approval, since metal is hard to alter once it is welded.
