HG Metals Specializing in Structural and Miscellaneous Metals Fabrication and Installation. HG METALS builds railing systems for all applications.

Furnishing various steel and metal products for construction of commercial, industrial, and large residential facilities. Stairs and Railing

HG METALS builds interior and exterior staircases, both utility and ornamental, using steel and/or other metal. We build from the Customer’s architectural design and engineering specifications. Our most popular stair product incorporates concrete-filled pans for treads and picket railing; however, we have experience producing any combination of stair stringer and tread, with railings of any design. Design is typically determined by the Client’s architect; and may include a high degree of customization. However, our Sales Team can assist by providing standard options that may meet a Customer’s need. Structural Steel Fabrication

HG METALS furnishes and erects the steel columns, beams, and special structures that permit the mounting of masonry for typical commercial elevations. Our experience with low-rise commercial and multi-unit apartment buildings is extensive. We furnish the steel structural underpinning for elevator shafts, including the hoist beam. We furnish platforms for elevating heavy MEP units and other utilities. We furnish small components, in high-volume or small order. These are embeds, structural connectors, and lintels. We furnish steel joists and decking for commercial roofs. Specialty Products

HG METALS builds specialty items of all sorts. Some items simply must be made of steel. Steel delivers strength and durability. We build the special-purpose, one-of-a-kind items based on the Customer’s need and from the Customer’s design. Our fabricators can replicate an existing steel item. Or we can modify to improve your item’s function and/or appearance.

🔥 FROM RAW STEEL TO REAL RESULTS 🔥

Steel fabrication is more than cutting, welding, and assembling metal—it’s taking an idea on paper and turning it into something built to perform and built to last. 💪🏗️

At HG Metals, that’s what we do every day. From structural steel and stairs to rails and miscellaneous metals, every project takes skilled hands, precision, problem-solving, and a team committed to getting the job done right.

But here’s something most people don’t think about…

👀 The next time you walk into a building, look around. How much steel can you spot?

The stairs you climbed.
The rails you grabbed.
The beams overhead.
The steel supporting what you don’t even see.

There’s a story behind every piece—and somebody had to fabricate it. 🔥

💬 YOUR TURN: What’s the first thing you notice on a steel project—the welds, the structure, the stairs & rails, or the finished product?

Drop your answer below! 👇

👀 WAIT… DON’T SCROLL. LET’S TALK STEEL. 🔩🔥

You probably use something fabricated from steel every single day without even thinking about it.

The stairs you climb.
The rails you grab.
The buildings you enter.
The stadiums you cheer in. 🏟️
The structures that help hold it all together.

At HG Metals, we get to see what happens BEFORE the finished product — when raw steel meets skilled hands, sparks, precision and a whole lot of teamwork. 💪

And we want to bring YOU behind the scenes.

Follow along for:

🔥 Real fabrication & welding
🏗️ Project progress & throwbacks
🧠 Steel trivia & “Did You Know?” facts
👷 Meet the people behind the steel
📍 Projects helping build Indiana and beyond

But first, we have a challenge for you…

👇 Tell us what YOU want to see being fabricated.

A. Stairs & Rails
B. Structural Steel
C. Welding Up Close 🔥

🏗️ INDY’S SUBURBS ARE BUILDING TOO! 👀

Downtown Indianapolis isn’t the only place seeing major development. Fishers, Carmel and Brownsburg are continuing to grow — and there’s a lot happening in the construction pipeline.

🔥 FISHERS
Fishers continues to be one of the busiest areas for development. The city recently announced a $169 million sixth phase of Fishers District, including a new North American headquarters for JD Finish Line, additional multifamily development and more expansion around Fishers District. The city is also investing $12.4 million in roadway and infrastructure projects in 2026.

🏗️ CARMEL
Carmel isn't slowing down either. Upcoming redevelopment projects include Penn 111, Civic Square Condominiums, Hamilton Crossing, Icon on Main, Magnolia, Monon Square North, North End and Proscenium III. Meanwhile, major infrastructure improvements continue along Main Street, Monon Boulevard, College Avenue and the Merchants Square area.

🔨 BROWNSBURG
And don't sleep on the west side! Brownsburg continues to have residential, commercial, institutional and infrastructure projects moving through its development pipeline—creating opportunities for contractors and trades as the community continues to expand.

For those of us in steel fabrication and construction, growth like this means one thing:

More buildings. More infrastructure. More opportunities. And MORE STEEL. 🔥

👀 CONSTRUCTION FRIENDS — WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

🏈 FOOTBALL IS BACK — AND WE’RE TALKING STEEL! 🔩

49ERS vs. RAMS — two NFC West rivals going head-to-head, and this time they’re taking the rivalry all the way to Australia! 🌏🏈

🔩 When the Design Gets Complicated, HG Metals Gets to Work.

Some projects are straightforward. Others are built to challenge you — and HG Metals is always up for a challenge. 💪

Take a look at these intricate stairs and rails fabricated and installed for Taylor University. From the sweeping curves and multiple levels to the detailed rail system, this project required precision, craftsmanship, and a team capable of turning a complex design into reality.

Projects like this are a great reminder that steel doesn't have to be ordinary. It can be functional, strong, and a standout architectural feature all at the same time.

At HG Metals, we don't shy away from the complicated projects.

Challenging design? Unique fabrication? Difficult steel package? Send it our way. 🔩🏗️

💬 What catches your eye first on this project — the staircase or the rails?

Thank you Rusty and Frederick Steel Company for these delicious cookies!

🔩 YOU SEE STEEL EVERY DAY… BUT DO YOU NOTICE IT? 👀

Here’s a challenge from HG Metals:

Take a look around you right now. Steel is probably closer than you think.

🏗️ The building you’re standing in
🏟️ The stadium you cheer in
🏥 The hospital in your community
🪜 The stairs you climb
🔩 The rails you grab
🌉 The bridges you drive across

Behind those finished structures are fabricators, welders, installers, detailers, project managers and countless skilled hands turning raw steel into something built to last.

So today, we want to have a little fun…

👇 NAME SOMETHING MADE WITH STEEL — but you CAN’T repeat an answer already in the comments!

Think you can stump us? 😏

And here's the second challenge:

👥 TAG someone who works in construction, welding, manufacturing or the skilled trades. Let’s get more people talking about the work that goes into building the world around us!

Follow HG Metals for project throwbacks, behind-the-scenes fabrication, steel trivia, industry news and a whole lot more steel. 🔥
