Types of Metal We Work With
We offer four metal options. These metals are suitable for making vehicles, building projects, manufacturing, and other purposes. Each has strengths, and we’ll give you a short overview.
​
- Aluminum: Because of its natural properties, aluminum offers multiple advantages. It’s pliable, easy to process, and cheap. Used the right way, it can be a suitable construction and car material. It’s also easy to fabricate, so that we can make complex designs.
- Stainless steel: Its strength is its leading quality, but stainless steel is a widely popular metal because of its low maintenance, high resistance to elements, and more. If you have a budget that allows for the best choice, stainless steel should be high on your purchase list. We can provide stainless steel fabrication for you in Edmonton, Drayton Valley and surrounding areas.
- Carbon sheet and carbon plate: Carbon sheet is a popular choice as the production material for storage tanks, ductwork, vessels, and various other applications. It’s workable, though it’s more challenging. If this is the metal you want, trust us to provide you with a steady source.
- Plate steel: We can make plate steel in varying lengths and thicknesses. Because of its characteristics, it’s used in several markets, and depending on how it’s processed, it can be an OEM component, repair material, and more.

Difference Between Steel and Aluminium Fabrication
A few distinctions between the manufacture of steel and aluminum are as follows:
-
Strength: Steel is frequently more durable than aluminum for heavy-duty applications like building structures and beams.
-
Weight: To keep projects portable or reduce building weight, aluminum is much lighter than steel.
-
Fabrication: Although welding with aluminum requires more specific skills, it is easier to cut and bend than steel. More powerful equipment is needed for steel manipulation.
-
Cost: Generally speaking, steel is less costly than aluminum.
-
Rust: Steel rusts easily, whereas aluminum resists corrosion by nature.
Steel is your go-to for tough jobs that need maximum strength. Aluminum shines when weight savings or corrosion resistance are essential. Our team can advise on the best material for your Drayton Valley or Edmonton project!
Applications of Steel and Aluminium Fabrications
We use strong steel for tough jobs around Drayton Valley and Edmonton. Think of building frames, bridges, railings, tanks, and even equipment that works hard. Our metalworkers are the best at shaping steel for your project. However, aluminum is the best material if you require something lighter and non-rusting. Aluminum is used for trailers, light stands, windows, roofing, and building fronts. Thus, we have the metal for you, whether you're renovating a boat trailer in Drayton Valley or building a new home in Edmonton!
