Can We Build a Custom Steel Frame from Your Drawings?
t478-2

Yes. Techno Kol Uzi can manufacture custom steel frames and structures directly from your existing drawings, provided they contain enough dimensional and detailing information for fabrication. We review the drawings, confirm connections and finishes with you, and then produce the frame in our Tel Aviv factory.
What we need from your drawings
Send the drawings in a clear, scaled format, preferably PDF plus the native CAD file if you have it. Plans, elevations and sections should show overall dimensions, member sizes, grid lines and levels. Detail drawings matter most, because they define how members meet.
- Member profiles and sizes
- Connection and joint details
- Anchorage and base plate information
- Required finish, such as hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating
If anything is missing, we will list the gaps before production starts.
How we review the design for fabrication
Before cutting any steel, our team checks that the drawings can be built as shown. We look for conflicting dimensions, unclear welds, bolt access problems and connections that would be difficult to assemble on site. Shop drawings are prepared where needed so that every part has a clear reference.
Structural calculations and load verification remain the responsibility of your engineer. We fabricate to the approved design and raise any concerns we find in the review process.
Confirming details with you
Once the review is complete, we send you a written specification and a list of points to confirm. This usually covers member sizes where the drawing allows options, weld and finish requirements, delivery of parts, and how the frame will be installed. Your approval is recorded before production begins, so both sides work from the same version.
Production in our Tel Aviv workshop
Our factory at 37 Rival Street handles the full process: cutting, drilling, welding and assembly of the steel frame. Because we work in-house, changes between the approved drawings and the workshop are easier to control. Pieces are marked and organized so that installation on site follows the drawing sequence.
Finishing, including hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating, is done before delivery to protect the frame in its working environment.
Delivery and installation coordination
We coordinate delivery so that the frame arrives in pieces that suit the site access and the installation sequence. For larger structures, we can plan the split of members and advise on lifting points. Installation support is arranged according to the project, and we work with your contractor or site team.
When a custom frame is the right choice
A custom steel frame suits projects where standard profiles do not fit the architectural intent or the loads. Typical cases include pergolas, canopies, mezzanines, steel stairs and bespoke support structures. If your drawings are already detailed, the path from design to finished steel is short and predictable.
Frequently asked questions
Do you need a full set of structural calculations?
Structural design and load calculations are normally provided by your engineer. We fabricate to the approved design and check the drawings for constructability.
Can you work from PDF drawings only?
Yes, PDF drawings are workable, but native CAD files reduce the chance of misreading dimensions. We will tell you if the drawings need clarification.
Do you check the drawings before starting?
Yes. Every set goes through a fabrication review, and we send a list of points to confirm before production begins.
Can the frame be galvanized or painted?
Yes, we offer hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating as finishing options, which should be specified on the drawings or in the written approval.
Common mistakes to avoid
Sending incomplete or unscaled drawings, and leaving connection details or finishes unspecified, are the most common causes of delay. Clear detail drawings save time and cost for everyone involved.
Our recommendation
Send the connection details and finish requirements along with the main plans from the start, and ask your engineer to confirm the member sizes before fabrication. This prevents revisions after steel has been cut.
Summary
Techno Kol Uzi can build custom steel frames from your drawings after a fabrication review and written approval. Complete plans and connection details make the process faster and more accurate.
