We used AK Welding for the first time on a commercial project, where they fabricated and installed approximately 70 LF of handrails, and couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, they were responsive, professional, and easy to work with. They provided shop drawings, fabricated the handrails to match the plans, powder-coated them in our specified color, and handled the installation. The finished product came out exactly as shown on the plans, with great workmanship and attention to detail. Their pricing was also very fair for the quality of work and service provided. I highly recommend AK Welding to anyone looking for a reliable fabricator, especially for commercial handrails. We had a great experience and would absolutely use them again on future projects.

Response from the owner · 3 weeks ago

Thank you for the review and for trusting AK Welding with your commercial handrail project. We’re glad everything came together as planned, from the shop drawings and fabrication to the powder coating and installation. We take pride in doing quality work and making sure everything is done right. We appreciate your business and look forward to working with you again on future projects!

We hired AK Welding to install a new railing, and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The railing looks great, feels solid, and the quality of the work really shows. Jimmy was professional, easy to work with, and made sure everything was done right. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. I would definitely recommend AK Welding to anyone looking for custom railings or metalwork!

I called AK Welding to install new railings on the front steps of my home, they managed to sell me on aluminum, and honestly im really glad they did. it came out beautiful, they gave me a very long warranty, and promised there is no maintenance or rust, so fingers crossed!

Had a few exterior handrails fabricated and installed at our property. Everything was measured correctly and the crew worked around our schedule since we still had people coming in and out of the building. No complaints.

The handrail going down our basement stairs was loose and honestly didn't feel safe anymore. They replaced it and anchored the new one properly. Much better now, thanks Jimmy!

Response from the owner · 4 weeks ago

Thank you! Glad we could get that taken care of for you. A loose handrail can definitely be a safety concern, so we made sure the new one was properly anchored and secure. Thanks again for choosing AK Welding!
