Services
Steel Handrails
Upright Steel fabricates ADA-compliant and custom handrails for commercial, industrial, and residential projects. Using steel, aluminum, or stainless steel, we create durable, code-compliant systems with powder-coated finishes. Our in-house drafting and field-measurement process ensures precise installations that enhance architectural aesthetics while prioritizing safety and longevity.
Steel Canopies
Custom steel canopies are designed to provide weather protection for entryways and outdoor spaces. Available in galvanized, primed, or powder-coated finishes, our canopies feature durable steel decking or grating. We offer rod-and-clevis bracing systems for added strength and aesthetic appeal, tailored to residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Steel Stairs
We design and fabricate code-compliant steel stairs, including pan-style, tube-style, and drop-in systems. Options include concrete-filled treads, grated treads, and modular configurations. Our solutions meet regional building codes and are engineered for durability in commercial, industrial, and residential environments.
Pedestrian Bridges
Upright Steel constructs galvanized steel pedestrian bridges with grated or panel flooring. Available in short, medium, and ODOT-compliant long spans, these bridges combine structural integrity with corrosion resistance. Powder-coated finishes and custom designs ensure aesthetic integration with commercial, industrial, or residential landscapes.

Our AWS-certified welders specialize in stainless steel and aluminum welding using TIG, MIG, and arc techniques. We adhere to strict industry standards for structural integrity and finish quality, serving projects requiring corrosion-resistant, high-strength welds in architectural and industrial applications.

Did numerous steel detailing jobs for this guy. Sometimes I would be paid on time, most of the time I'd have to wait months for partial payment. He's not reliable with money. Still owes more than $2700 (and he agrees he owes it), more than 2 1/2 years after the last work I did for him.

Liar, always on cell phone & not prepared.
Thinks that he is a full service fabricator when he is just a job shop structural fabricator.
Using LLC for a reason!
