Safety Barriers Built to Last

Secure Guardrail Fabrication & Installation in Detroit

You need guardrails that meet code and withstand the daily demands of your facility, whether you're protecting walkways, loading docks, or elevated platforms. Metal Man Mobile Welding fabricates and installs custom steel guardrails across Detroit, welding reinforced posts, rails, and barriers on-site to fit your exact layout. The sharp ring of the hammer on steel echoes as posts are set, and sparks fly when welding secures each connection point.

From warehouses and manufacturing plants to outdoor loading areas in Detroit, every guardrail is built to handle impacts and provide dependable fall protection. Powder coating and galvanizing options are available to extend the life of your rails in harsh weather or corrosive environments.

Get started today by sharing your facility layout and scheduling a site visit to confirm rail placement and height requirements.

How Our Process Works?

You'll receive a site evaluation to determine post spacing, rail height, and mounting methods based on your facility's structure and safety codes. Rails are fabricated in the shop, then transported to your Detroit location for installation and final welding. On-site work includes drilling anchor points, setting posts, and welding horizontal rails to create a continuous barrier.

Metal Man Mobile Welding handles handrails, protective barriers, and reinforced safety rails for commercial and industrial sites. Each rail system is designed to meet OSHA height and strength requirements. Installation is completed with minimal disruption to your operations, and all welds are inspected before the site is cleared.

Powder coating or hot-dip galvanizing is applied after fabrication to protect against rust and wear. You choose the finish based on your environment, and rails are delivered ready to install or fully installed and tested on-site.

How long does installation take?
Simple straight runs are often installed in one day, while complex layouts with corners, gates, or multiple levels may require several days. Scheduling depends on site access and welding requirements.

Can you add gates or removable sections?
Swing gates and removable rail sections are fabricated and installed as part of the system, allowing access for forklifts, pallets, or equipment while maintaining safety barriers.
