Structural Steel Subcontractor | Utah General Contractors

Titan Forge serves general contractors, project managers, architects, and property developers across the Wasatch Front who need a reliable structural steel fabrication subcontractor. We work from approved plans and project specifications, then coordinate fabrication and installation around your schedule.

If you’ve been burned by subs who disappear between bid and install, miss deadlines, or show up with the wrong dimensions — that’s the problem we solve.

• Structural steel staircases — straight, L-shaped, U-shaped, spiral
• Guardrail and handrail systems fabricated to approved plans and applicable IBC requirements.
• Mezzanine and elevated platform perimeter guards
• ADA-compliant ramp and stair railings
• Rooftop access ladders and code-required safety systems
• Commercial gates and site access structures
• Loading dock edge protection
• I-beam drilling, welding, and structural cap fabrication
• Ridge plates and timber connection hardware
• Custom structural steel components and one-off fabrications

1. SEND US YOUR PLANS
Submit PDF, DWG, DXF, or SOLIDWORKS files. We review the scope, dimensions, and fabrication details for coordination before quoting. No plan set yet? A detailed scope description and site photos work for preliminary estimates. Large file sets can be emailed directly to jason@utahwelder.com.

2. WE DELIVER A FIXED QUOTE
Straightforward projects get a quote next business day. Complex structural work may take up to one week depending on CAD requirements. Our proposal clearly defines the included scope, materials, fabrication, installation assumptions, and exclusions. Changes to drawings, site conditions, access, materials, schedule, or scope are addressed in writing before work proceeds.

3. CAD DRAWINGS BEFORE FABRICATION
Projects requiring fabrication drawings receive drawings for review and approval before fabrication begins.

4. FABRICATION ON YOUR SCHEDULE
We confirm lead times before you commit. Lead times are confirmed before scheduling and vary based on drawing completion, material availability, finish requirements, and project complexity. We don’t disappear — you get updates throughout.

5. INSTALLATION COORDINATED WITH YOUR TIMELINE
We handle installation and coordinate with your site schedule. We coordinate field conditions early and communicate promptly when access, substrate conditions, existing construction, or approved drawings affect installation.

Link to Project: Custom Spiral Staircase

Scope: Modular bolt-together steel security enclosure for controlled substance storage at a Springville warehouse. Roughly 8′-4″ x 8′-6″ footprint at 7′-2″ tall — four wall assemblies, full welded-wire ceiling, and one hinged door sized to pass a loaded pallet and pallet jack. 1-1/2″ square tube frame with 1-1/2″ angle reinforcement band, welded wire mesh at .187″ wire on 2″x2″ openings, and 3/8″ through-bolts throughout. Floor-anchor flanges turned inward so the anchor bolts are only reachable from inside the locked cage. Fabricated and powder coated in the Springville shop, then assembled and anchored on site. Built to the physical construction requirements of 21 CFR 1301.72(b)(4); alarm, monitoring, DEA filing, and inspection remained with the owner.
