ArcWest started for one reason: there was a gap between the small welding repair shop on the corner and the big fabrication houses an hour away. Real businesses, contractors, and farmers were stuck choosing between someone who couldn't handle the job and someone who wouldn't return their call.

With over a decade in fabrication, CAD design, and CNC manufacturing, we built ArcWest to fill that gap — a serious fabrication shop with full 3D CAD, CNC equipment, and finishing under one roof, run by someone who actually answers the phone.

ArcWest is fully licensed and insured. When a job needs to be stamped, inspected, or signed off, we have the relationships in place to make it happen. Every quote, every weld, every finished part comes back to one person. That's the deal.

Off The Clock

Faith. Family. Fabrication.

Behind ArcWest is Dallan and his wife Lizzy. The same priorities that built this shop — God first, family second, the work third — are what keep it grounded. When the press brake powers down, you'll find us in the Colorado mountains.

Built On Faith

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.

What We Stand On

God First. Family Second.
Business Built On Trust.

We don't preach at customers. But we don't hide what shaped this shop either. The way we do business — honest pricing, real follow-through, doing the right thing when no one's watching — comes from somewhere.

01

Integrity

If a job's not the right fit, we say so. If a quote's wrong, we own it. The weld you can't see gets the same care as the one you can.

02

Craftsmanship

Steel doesn't care about your deadline. A part is right or it isn't. We build like our name is welded on it — because it is.

03

Service

The job isn't done when the part ships. It's done when it works in your hand, on your trailer, or on your job site. We stand behind it.

What Sets Us Apart

Bigger Capability. Smaller Footprint.
The Best Of Both.

What Big Shops Get Wrong

Two-week quotes. Three names on every email chain. A change order for any conversation. A minimum order that prices small businesses out before the first cut.

What Small Shops Get Wrong

Hand-fab tolerances. No CAD. No CNC. No engineering. Yes to every job — even the ones they shouldn't take. No accountability when it goes sideways.

What ArcWest Gets Right

Real CNC equipment. Real engineering. Real quotes within 24 hours. Real ownership when something needs to change.

What That Looks Like For You

Faster turnaround. Tighter tolerances. Lower total cost (because we don't outsource the forming). And one person who picks up the phone.
