Fehlhafer Interior Railings
This custom interior house railing was fabricated for a customer who wanted to do away with some of the wood features in their home. The railing features 4”x4” sq tube posts with 1.5”x 3” rectangle tube for the top rail and .75”x 1.5” rec. tube for the horizontal “pickets”. It is finished with a sleek flat black powder coating for durability and style. To simplify and streamline the installation process, we utilized a metal sleeve that was slipped over the existing wooden posts. This stylish railing included a removable baby gate, all the while enhancing safety for the family while maintaining an elegant aesthetic. Our attention to detail in both design and installation ensures that this railing not only meets safety standards but also compliments the home’s interior decor beautifully.
Amtrak Station at Holdredge, NE
The Amtrak Station in Holdrege is our largest fabrication and installation project since we stopped traveling long distances to install our products. Our scope of work for the project was to fabricate guardrails for the length of the passenger platform and a swing gate. We were also contracted to move their HCLE (handicap chair lift enclosure) building, as well as handle miscellaneous sign installations on the property. This project required fabrication of nearly a ¼ mile of railing. The powder coated railings were finally installed on both sides of the concrete platform. Several of our mobilizations were in cold and inclement weather. This project was finally completed in the summer months of 2024.
Ryan Naber Deck/Stairs/Railings
We designed, fabricated, and installed this deck for our customer/family member. The deck frame is free standing, which allowed us to keep the strain off of the structure of the house, and not require any penetration into the siding which keeps the siding in good condition. All the components were fabricated and painted in-shop. The railing sections are fabricated from smaller channel iron and ½ square bars and are bolted to clips welded to the posts for assembly. The idea for along the top side of the rail sections is to install a wood piece to add style and prevent you from burning your arms on the metal in the heat of summer. All the framing, including the stair tread frames were then covered with composite decking to complete the deck that won’t need redone in this lifetime!
Kach Inv. Decorative Stairs & Railing
We fabricated these beautiful pan stairs with decorative guardrails in-shop before installing them at a historic building in Seward, NE. On average each of the panels took an hour to tig weld wire ends of the decorative wire mesh to the sq. tube panel framing. Once the meticulous fabrication on the railing was complete, we test fit the railings on the pan stair stringers. After ensuring proper assembly we moved on to the unique challenge of installing these stairs. For the installation we used an I-beam to span the 2nd floor opening that we used to run an electric hoist on. Each end of the I-beam rested on a 4-wheel cart allowing us to lift and maneuver the stair sections as needed during the installation process. The result of our efforts being a modern, durable solution that enhances both safety and accessibility all while preserving the building’s historic charm.
Railings at York Auditorium
When the York Auditorium underwent renovations in 2021, we had a couple different roles in the project. One of which was providing reinforcement on the underneath side of the roof deck for a new rooftop HVAC unit. The other more prominent aspect was the Shepard Hook style railings to bring the York Auditorium up to code. We fabricated, painted, and then meticulously installed them in every aisle throughout the auditorium. These railings not only ensure compliance with safety standards but also add a sleek, functional design element to the venue, all while providing secure support for patrons as they navigate the space.
Fricks Pallet Facility
We fabricated and installed this galvanized picket railing and egress stairs at the Fricks pallet assembly facility just outside Dallas/Ft. Worth. This durable railing, while it is functional, also dresses up the property. The installation of this railing required core drilling holes atop the parapet style wall, setting and leveling the rail, then grouting the rail in place, and finally welding all the sections of railing together.
Steel Railing in Cleveland, OH
We custom fabricated a mild steel railing, which was then galvanized for added longevity, before being installed in Cleveland, Ohio. The installation process involved core drilling holes for the railing legs and then grouting the railing into place. The galvanized finish provides long-term protection against the elements, making it the ideal solution for railings in an outdoor environment.
Bama Foods in Tulsa Oklahoma
We custom fabricated and installed stainless steel stairs and railings set for Bama Foods in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Due to this stairway being in the production area of the industrial food processing facility it was imperative that it was fabricated out of stainless material. This project demonstrates our ability to work with any material, in any environment, and provide you with the quality product you need and desire!
