Custom Steel & Stair Engineering in Austin

Signature stairs and fabrication-ready steel, from concept to shop drawings. Floating treads, spiral stairs, and exposed connections are worked out in 3D and documented so fabricators can build exactly what the architect drew. When the structure is the finish, the details have to be right.

Exposed structure leaves nowhere to hide, so geometry, connections, and tolerances are resolved in 3D before fabrication — not in the field. We dedicate real time to working out every detail and communicating it clearly, so what gets fabricated matches the architectural intent.

Beyond stairs, the same care goes into architectural steel of every kind — canopies, awnings, trellises, and exposed frames — delivered as stamped, fabrication-ready packages that fabricators can price and build from with confidence.
