Design & Fabrication
Industrial Fabrication and Welding
Support custom industrial parts and assemblies with metal fabrication services for steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, including cutting, forming, welding, and assembly.
Why Direct
Built for the Jobs That Aren’t Standard
Industrial fabrication projects often involve unique dimensions, materials, interfaces, or installation needs that don’t fit an off-the-shelf solution. Direct works from drawings, specifications, and project requirements to coordinate each part or assembly around how it needs to fit, function, and move into the next stage of the build.
- Built for Complex, Non-Standard Fabrication
- More Fabrication Steps Under One Roof
- Flexible for One-Offs and Low-Volume Runs
- Hands-On Support From Drawing to Assembly
Our Capabilities
From Raw Material to Finished Assembly
Direct provides custom fabrication, metal fabrication, and welding services for industrial parts, equipment, structures, and assemblies that require accurate cutting, forming, fit-up, welding, and dependable build quality.
Precision Cutting and Material Preparation
Steel, stainless steel, and aluminum are cut and prepared using waterjet cutting, CNC plasma cutting, and other fabrication processes selected around material type, geometry, dimensions, tolerances, edge quality, part complexity, and downstream assembly requirements.
Forming and Sheet Metal Fabrication
Press-brake forming and bending shape sheet and plate into brackets, guards, panels, supports, enclosures, and other custom components built around project drawings, dimensions, fit requirements, material thicknesses, forming needs, and final assembly requirements.
Industrial Welding and Fabrication Services
MIG, TIG, stick, and robotic welding support steel, stainless steel, and aluminum fabrication for custom parts, weldments, structural assemblies, equipment, and production work where fit-up, strength, dimensional accuracy, consistency, and final weld quality matter.
Finishing and Final Fabricated Assembly
Fabricated components can move through fit-up, welding, grinding, finishing, inspection, and light assembly so individual parts become completed, production-ready assemblies while keeping more of the overall fabrication process coordinated through one shop.
Keep More of the Build Together
Splitting cutting, forming, welding, and assembly across several vendors creates more handoffs and more chances for dimensions or revisions to get lost. Keeping more of the fabrication process together helps projects move from material to finished assembly with fewer disconnects.
Reduce Vendor Handoffs
Coordinate cutting, forming, welding, finishing, and assembly through one fabrication team instead of managing several separate shops.
Handle Custom Requirements
Build around unusual dimensions, materials, interfaces, and project constraints when standard components won’t fit the application.
Adapt to the Production Need
Support one-off projects, prototypes, low-volume runs, and changing demand without forcing every job into high-volume manufacturing.
