Our customer needed some help finishing up his entrance.  All pieces were cut from 3/16" plate, blasted and powder coated.  The arrowheads connecting the top horizontal beam to the uprights was a nice touch.  They did a great job with this project.  I'm glad that we could help out with the metal work. 

This ranch sign was cut from 3/16" plate.  Our customer gets high winds in the area and didn't want the sign blowing around too much.  The heavy 3/16" plate helps a lot with that, plus we welded extra chainlinks to the bottom corners for 2 extra connection points.

Corten Address Sign

This customer wanted a bold address sign with a natural rust finish.  This was cut from 3/16" corten steel, also known as "weathering steel".   It was sandblasted which removes the millscale for a quick rust finish and will never rust though. Thats the beauty of corten steel.

The Durando Ranch is in the North Fort Myers Florida area.  Most of the signs we do end up with a black powder coat.  Every now and then we'll do a white powder coat and it always looks great and stands out well.

I'm glad to be a part of this ranch gate build.  My customer contacted me with a picture of her husband standing on a horse that she wanted to have recreated into a silhouette metal cut out.  She had someone build the gate and do the install, she just needed the art for the center of the gate. The entire entrance turned out absolutely beautiful!

This ranch is located in the TX panhandle near Amarillo.  The sign was shipped in multiple pieces, welded in place on location and painted.  The antlers measure about 4 foot X 8 foot so bracing was added to the backside to counteract the high winds that they get in that part of the country. I love the colors they chose. It should really stand out.
