Giant Steel Deck on Mountain House

Custom Metal Deck with a Beautiful View

Proud to add this big custom steel deck to the Fox Fabrication and Welding portfolio. This steel deck was built in a stunning Boulder neighborhood, with fantastic mountain views. We called this project Meadowlook. Fox Fabrication and Welding installed the steel and built this custom steel deck based on a structural engineer drawing.

Ground Up Build with 6×12 Inch Steel Beams

With the client’s engineering drawing we fabricated all the steel in the shop. We plasma cut and mitered the corners for all the large square tube framing. The material we used was 6-inch x 12-inch steel and assembled all the pieces in the field using a crane.

The entire project was welded together – there were no bolted connections other than the baseplates. Great to see a big steel welding and fabrication project like this come into existence.

If you want to add a custom steel deck, awning or pergola to your house, we are here to help. Contact us today or call us at (720)939-6115 now.

Metal Furnishes for New Build

The Hoover Project has been ongoing for over a year but is getting closer to completion! We catered to the client to build custom exterior architectural metal furnishings and railings. These metal railings and furnishes were built to highlight the house and the design behind the project.

We bolted up headers above windows and trimmed out several steel doors. It’s been a consistent project for a year now, with more and more custom metal projects coming our way. Giving us a chance to do work on so many metal projects makes us happy always!

We’re building a mono stringer inside that will be furnished with a custom set of railings. We’re also building 60 feet of additional railing outback on the patio! At the end of the project, we will have lots of time into it with the planning, the shop fabrication, fieldwork, and field welding. This is one project we are very excited to see the final product. With Fox Fabrication and Welding steelwork completing this incredible home.

Our photographer and Marketing Director William Drumm came out to shoot some images and videos from this project. Just wait until you see the final product!

I-70 Late Night Welding Job

Welding steel high up in the air at 2 am with cars streaming by on I-70. What a welding project this was. We did this project with Kiewit alongside C-Dot and Metal Pros who furnished all the steel for this I-70 construction project.

We were welding throughout the night in the air in a man basket, as well as on the ground. We were working with traffic control to maintain a safe environment.

The welding was done in correlation with D1.1 Code for structural penetrations and handholds. This was for some of the existing columns along I-70 corridor.

Complete Metal Construction Package

This was a fun metal and welding project where we handled lots of different elements. Not only that, but this home is a beauty, with multiple decks and metal railings overlooking Sloan’s Lake and the Denver skyline. The view was perfect while building and welding the structural steel and interior and exterior metal railings throughout the home. The structural steel install was smooth at butter and took two days to build.

This entire metal project was done in three days, plus a bit of clean-up on the fourth. We welded structural saddles and supports on the framing. We also put in multiple folded connections and fusing. What a pleasure it was to work work with our old shop partner Justin from Pure Construction! They are usually awesome to share a project with, and this was no exception.

Our photographer William Drumm came out to shoot some images of the final product. The weather was perfect when he was there, and the exterior railings look great against the backgrounds of Denver and the Highlands.

The hose design was done by the amazing Arc West Architects.
