Texas Metal Industries

What Texas Metal Industries does

Texas Metal Industries is a family-owned metal fabrication and distribution company headquartered in Crandall, Texas, founded in 1980. The company operates three U.S. facilities — a Texas headquarters with in-house foundry, a Warren, Michigan distribution center established in 1998, and a Fort Myers, Florida manufacturing facility established in 2006 — and sells custom aluminum and steel products to the construction industry and residential property owners through direct e-commerce and phone-based channels.

Its product portfolio spans aluminum and steel fencing, gates, castings (1,300+ aluminum and 500+ cast iron SKUs), forgings, hardware, and gate automation systems. Manufacturing and finishing capabilities include in-house sand casting, die casting, plasma cutting, welding, and powder coating, enabling both standardized catalog SKUs and bespoke custom fabrication work.

Revenue is generated through catalog and custom e-commerce orders plus phone-based project sales, serving a customer base that mixes end consumers, contractors, builders, homeowners, and architects. The company is privately held by a family, employs between 11 and 50 people, and discloses no revenue, funding, or ownership data beyond its family-controlled status; a website disclosure around tariffs indicates some current input-cost pressure in the underlying metals market.
