Aluminum fabrication for Northwest waterfront projects

Waterfront Construction Inc. fabricates aluminum components for Northwest waterfront projects. Bring us your drawings, dimensions, quantities, and intended use so we can review the fabrication scope, material requirements, delivery, and installation needs.

Designed around the installation

WCI develops fabricated components with the complete waterfront system in mind. Dimensions, loading, connections, access, field tolerances, drainage, finish, and installation sequencing are considered before material reaches the shop floor.

Marine-grade material and workmanship

Alloy, thickness, weld process, fasteners, isolation details, surface finish, and hardware are selected around exposure and use. Careful fit-up and quality control help create components that arrive ready for efficient field installation.

From the shop to the shoreline

Fabrication connects directly with WCI marine logistics and construction capabilities. That continuity helps coordinate transport, lifting, assembly, and installation at difficult waterfront sites across Seattle, Lake Washington, Lake Sammamish, Puget Sound, and the San Juan Islands.

What to include in your fabrication quote request

Send a drawing or dimensioned sketch, the number of components, intended use, material or alloy if specified, thickness, connection details, finish requirements, project location, and requested timing. Include the current drawing revision and identify dimensions or requirements that still need to be resolved.

Aluminum fabrication questions

What aluminum components can WCI fabricate?

Our waterfront fabrication scope includes gangways, ramps, railings, stairs, dock and float frames, brackets, platforms, guards, and custom marine components. Send the component details so we can confirm whether the work fits our capabilities.

Can I send my existing plans for a quote?

Yes. Use the plan-upload form below to send PDF, DWG, DXF, STEP, STP, IGES, or IGS files. Include quantities, dimensions, intended use, specified material, finish requirements, project location, and requested timing. The form accepts up to three files, with a 5 MB limit per file and a 12 MB combined limit.

What if I do not have finished drawings?

Start with a project inquiry describing what you need, approximate dimensions, intended use, and where the component will be installed. We can identify the information needed for the next estimating step. Fabrication details and any required engineering need to be resolved before work begins.

What affects the price of custom aluminum fabrication?

Material and thickness, component size, quantity, cutting and welding requirements, tolerances, finish, hardware, and delivery or installation scope all affect the estimate. Clear drawings and connection details help WCI review the same scope you intend to build.

Can WCI coordinate delivery and waterfront installation?

Yes. Fabrication can be coordinated with WCI's marine construction, barging, lifting, and installation services. Access, location, component size, site conditions, and the project schedule determine the delivery and installation plan.

How do we establish a fabrication schedule?

Include your requested date with the plans. WCI will review drawing readiness, material availability, scope, shop scheduling, and any delivery or installation requirements before confirming timing.
