Mobile Welding and Metal Fabrication in Palmdale & Lancaster, CA
Some things you can’t buy off the shelf. A driveway gate for an opening that’s 14 feet and a few inches. A railing for front steps that were poured unevenly. A gate for a pasture fence in Acton that needs to swing uphill. Handyman Randy provides mobile welding and custom metal fabrication for homes, ranches, rentals and businesses throughout Palmdale, Lancaster and the greater Antelope Valley. We design and build custom gates, railings, security doors, window bars, ranch gates, trailer parts and brackets, then install them on site with our mobile welding rig.
Our Metal Fabrication Services
Custom metal work starts with measuring, not welding. Handyman Randy measures your space, sketches the piece with you, picks the right steel for the job and builds it to fit. Because we weld on site, the final fitting and attachment happen at your property, so the finished piece fits the opening exactly.

Custom Gate Fabrication
A store bought gate rarely fits an Antelope Valley driveway or side yard exactly. Handyman Randy builds custom gates in Palmdale and Lancaster, sized to your opening and built heavy enough to handle the wind.
What We Build
Driveway gates: Swing and rolling gates for driveways, RV parking and side yards.
Walk gates: Pedestrian gates for side yards, courtyards and pool areas, with self closing hinges and latches where needed.
Security gates: Steel gates with expanded metal or mesh panels for businesses, storage yards and rentals.
Matching gates: New gates built to match your existing iron fence or railing.
How We Build It
We measure the opening, check that the posts are plumb and solid, and sketch the design with you. The gate frame is built from square tube steel, braced so it won’t sag, and fitted with heavy hinges or rolling hardware. Final fitting and welding happen on site so the gate swings or rolls true and latches on its own.
Materials We Use
We build with square tube, flat bar, angle iron and steel pickets, sized for the weight and span of each gate. Hardware is heavy duty and rated for gates exposed to constant Antelope Valley wind.
Custom Gates for Homeowners, Ranches and Businesses
We build gates for homeowners, ranch and horse properties, landlords and businesses that need secure, long lasting gates.
Turnaround
Most custom gates are built and installed within one to two weeks of your approved design, depending on size and materials.
