Custom metal fabrication in AlamogordoIf it's metal,we can make it

Fabrication is a big part of this business, and much of it isn't for our own jobs. Roofers in town order their trim and flashing from us. Builders, other trades and businesses bring drawings. Homeowners bring the worn-out original. We also build every piece of ductwork we install. One piece or a whole order.

We don't install roofs. We make the metal that goes on them.

Contractors & businesses

Your numbers.Our shop.

Roofers, builders, general contractors, other trades and local businesses: send us a drawing, a list of measurements or a sample, and we'll make it. Trim in the lengths and angles the job actually needs, flashing for the detail nobody stocks, a cover or guard for a piece of equipment, or a replacement for a part that isn't made any more.

It's the same shop and the same brake that build our own ductwork, so a one-off gets the same care as a full order.

How a duct gets made here

Flat sheet in.Finished duct out.

  1. Blank sheared

    Galvanized, cut to girth and length — here an 8 × 16 section, 60 inches long.

  2. Lock edges

    Pittsburgh pocket on one edge, a 90° single flange on the other.

  3. Cross-break & hems

    X-broken for stiffness; drive hems on the short sides at each end.

  4. Brake-formed

    Three 90° bends on the box-and-pan brake, closing on the lock corner.

  5. Seam hammered

    The flange seats in the pocket and the tail is hammered down over it.
