## How a project works

1. Free consultation, on-site or at the showroom: we talk through your vision, take measurements, and answer questions.
2. In-house CAD design: you see and approve detailed drawings before any metal is cut.
3. Fabrication: built and hand-welded by our craftsmen in our Colorado Springs shop.
4. Installation: our own crew installs it cleanly, on schedule, and to code.
