Process


Sales

When you call Grabill, we answer the phone. Whether you call or e-mail us, you will get a prompt knowledgeable response. Grabill requires its North American sales representatives to have a detailed background of the construction industry. As a result, our sales team becomes a part of the buyer’s design team and a key member in gathering the information necessary to ensure our product is the best choice for the buyer.

Design and development

design-developmentGrabill’s daily planning and operations are conducted by our staff of in-house architects, designers and product experts. Our institutional knowledge allows us to meet the architect’s intent by proposing the right product, while working with the architect and general contractor to ensure that the product will be properly placed in the building envelope before the project is awarded. Once the project is awarded, Grabill will submit detailed and timely construction documents for review and approval. Our experienced installation team can identify critical site conditions and develop strategies for product delivery and installation which impact production.

Components and Assembly

design-developmentThe mortise and tenon joint is the cornerstone of the Grabill production model. Our intent is to create a 50 year, museum quality, architecturally pleasing product. To meet this intent, we visually select each piece of lumber for grain and color consistency, allowing for quarter-sawn, rift-sawn, or book-matched applications if specified. Our joinery is based on century-old proven practices, without the use of substandard fasteners while our hardware systems are precision machined and tested for function.

Finish

design-developmentGrabill offers a variety of finishes for wood and metal clad applications. Our back-finishes stabilize wood components and our maintenance friendly exposed finishes protect our product from the elements. We offer water based finishes which have a wide range of available colors and are environmentally friendly. Our aluminum cladding is available in painted and anodized finishes for design flexibility.
