Custom Metal Fabrication in West Chicago, IL
Custom metal fabrication is the core of what FOX does — one-off pieces, project-specific components, and fabricated builds created in the West Chicago shop for residential, commercial, and specialty applications.
Built to the project, not a catalog
Custom fabrication means built to your project, not pulled from a catalog. FOX fabricates one-off pieces, project-specific components, railing panels, gate sections, and structural work from its West Chicago shop.
Shop fabrication capabilities
Shop work includes cutting, fitting, and welding of railing panels, gate sections, interior metal structures, steel-and-glass enclosures, custom stair units, and project-specific components — including custom vehicle and utility body fabrication.
One-off pieces and project-specific builds
Custom fabrication is not limited to large projects. FOX takes on single pieces and small runs — a custom railing panel, a one-off interior structure, or a small fabricated component.
Residential and commercial custom fabrication
Residential custom fabrication includes interior metal structures, stair railing units, and one-off pieces for a home. Commercial custom fabrication includes project-specific components, vehicle utility bodies, and chassis sub-frames. The build approach is the same: fabricate to the project, finish in the shop, and deliver or install.
Finishes and delivery
Pieces are finished in the shop — including primer and paint where the project calls for it — and then delivered or installed. Fabricating and finishing in the shop keeps the work controlled and lets the piece arrive ready to set.
How to start a custom fabrication request
A fabrication quote depends on the design, dimensions, finish, and install requirements. Send photos, dimensions, or a drawing — even reference photos with measurements are enough to start. FOX follows up with questions before building so the finished piece fits the intended space and function.
