DA Metal Fabrication provides full-scope steel fabrication services from concept to installation. Our design collaboration ensures accurate shop drawings with fabrication details, materials, finishes, and installation requirements. Our welding services deliver strong, certified joints that transform formed components into complete structures built to perform.
We offer custom fabrication of carbon and stainless steel parts tailored to unique dimensions, load requirements, and architectural or industrial uses. We also specialize in masonry angle punching, producing precision-punched steel angles and brackets with accurate hole and slot patterns for fast, reliable installation. Together, these services ensure efficient production, fit, and durability.
Providing metal fabrication design services involves a structured sequence of phases that convert a client’s concept into a fabricated metal product, assembly or installation. The drawings will often include fabrication details, materials, surface finishes, installation details, and coordinates for configuration.
Welding is one of the core, mission-critical services in metal fabrication: it is the process that transforms cut, formed and fitted metal components into assemblies, structures, systems and finished deliverables.
Pre-weld planning: joint design, access, fixture/fixturing, root gap, weld sequence, preheat/interpass control.
Inspection & documentation: visual testing, macro-etch, non-destructive testing (when required); weld reports, traceability, certification sheets.
Integration into fabrication design: coordinate with design & drawing teams so that welds don’t become afterthoughts — design for manufacturability includes welding.
Installation readiness: Ensure welded assemblies arrive fit for installation (correct geometry, minimal distortion, match-up for field welds, anchoring, lifting points) and if onsite welding is required, have logistics and safety covered.
Custom metal fabrication is the process of converting raw metal materials into specific components, assemblies, structures or architectural features that meet a client’s unique specification. Unlike standard off-the-shelf metal parts, custom fabrication is built around the client’s design, application, geometry, material requirements and finishing options — making it a value-add service in the fabrication market.
Customization & fit: Each project is unique — the ability to tailor metal fabrication ensures the solution fits the exact environment, aesthetics, or performance need.
Single-source ease: A capable custom fabricator coordinates everything from design intake, fabrication, welding, finishing and installation support — reducing risk of hand-offs and delays.
Quality & reliability: Clients expect high precision, minimal re-work, accurate tolerances, materials traceability and installed performance.
Cost & schedule control: Because custom fabrication covers all steps in-house, the fab can optimize order-of-operations, material usage, reduce waste, shorten lead times and better control deliverables.
We specialize in precision punching of masonry clip angles, anchor angles and steel-connection brackets for masonry walls, concrete facades and structural steel assemblies. From architectural murals to heavy industrial anchors, our masonry angle punching service delivers the exact hole sizes, slot patterns and extrusion tolerances your project demands—so your contractors, masons and erection teams can install quickly and accurately in the field.
From your drawing or subcontractor sketch we can collaborate:
Review the anchor/clip/angle connection detail and provide feedback on best hole/slot layout and fabrication usability.
Create shop drawing showing angle dimensions, hole/slot pattern, material gauge and finish.
Use punch press/iron-worker equipment for production punching of the steel angles.
Supply parts labelled, ready for installation: correct hole alignments, all angles match field dimensions, minimal field adjustment necessary.
Coordinate delivery and packaging to site to ensure they arrive in correct sequence for masonry installation or steel erection.
