From drawings to installation

  1. STEP 1

    Drawings & scope

    Send architectural drawings, a site plan or a marked-up photo set. We confirm scope, code path and finish options and return a budget range.

  2. STEP 2

    Shop drawings & engineering

    ArcView prepares shop drawings for the specific site. Where the authority having jurisdiction requires it, drawings are reviewed and stamped by a licensed engineer in the project's province.

  3. STEP 3

    Finish & sample approval

    Powder-coat colour is matched to a RAL reference or an existing building finish. A coated sample and a section sample are approved before fabrication starts.

  4. STEP 4

    Fabrication

    Extruded 6063-T5 aluminum profiles are cut, welded or mechanically joined to the shop drawings, then powder coated in a controlled process.

  5. STEP 5

    Delivery & installation

    Supply-only to the general contractor, or supply and install by ArcView crews. Both are available across Canada.
