Feature stairs
Helical, curved and straight stairs in plate, channel and tube. Curved stringers are bump-formed on our own press brake, so the ribbon of steel is one continuous piece.
Stairs, skins and steel for New York
Architectural metal and custom fabrication for architects, designers and builders. Drawn in SolidWorks and SDS/2, cut, bent, welded and finished in our own shop in Ellenville, NY, and installed by our own crew.
