How long does it take to build an enclosure?
We manufacture custom sheet metal electronic enclosures, mounting hardware, and miscellaneous components. We start from your design, and build them in 5-7 days, with no minimum order requirements. Extra lead time may be required for use of non-stocked components or materials, large quantity orders, or silk screening (due to drying time). If time is critical for your job, be sure to discuss it with your account manager, and we can review your design to determine the lead time, and suggest workarounds for any design elements that may result in delays.
What types of enclosures can you manufacture?
