Question: What do I need to provide to receive a quote for a custom extrusion?

1.We can use a drawing (printed, CAD, PDF, etc.) including specified tolerances and quantities or a written description including a list of dimensions, color, material, tolerances, and quantities. Very often we work from a prototype of the desired product. Of course, a verbal description works very well. If in doubt, it is best to contact us and let us help you determine what is needed to accurately quote your product.
