Step by step

What happens at each stage

1. Drawing

Send drawings, specifications — steel thickness, core, finish — the hardware list and quantities.

2. Review

We review the design against our processes and come back with questions or suggestions. Nothing is changed without your confirmation.

3. Sample

We make a sample for your approval before batch production.

4. Production

Batch production follows the approved sample and drawing.

5. Packing & shipment

Each batch is counted and checked against the order before loading. Packing and labelling follow your requirements.

Fire-door programs

Working within your program

For fire-door work, the core, steel thickness and construction details follow your approved design.

About certification. HWDC Steel is an OEM fabricator. We build to your approved drawings and specifications; fire ratings, listings, labels and inspections stay under your own certification program and its requirements. We do not change the design without your confirmation.
