Competitive Pricing »
We are a member of the North American Steel Alliance (NASA), a top purchasing cooperative that pools our steel mill buys with those of 124 other steel suppliers having a combined $8 billion in sales. That pooled purchasing power gives us leverage with the leading steel mills in North America . . . and that translates into savings for our customers.
Application Support »
Our sales and application pros have a combined 300 years experience. They help many of our 2000+ customers pick the product (specs, grade, finish) best suited to the application. They know machining, forming and cutting characteristics of those steels to advise on processing. In short, they’ve seen it all and are ready to put that experience to work for you.
Custom Programs »
Our Custom Programs include special contract terms, inventory management (JIT releases, kitting), logistics support, special packaging and delivery options – whatever ideas enhance the supply chain value for that customer. They bring the security of a long term supply agreement with flexibility to adapt to the customer’s changing needs.
Partnerships »
We seek to build Partnerships based on mutually-shared goals with both customers and vendors. Goals like achieving aggressive cost targets, improving quality of operations, and implementing new technology. These partnerships foster continuous improvement because they help us think more like our customer and more like our vendor.
Fast, Flexible Delivery »
Our multiple locations, combined with a fleet of 36 trucks, gives us more than impressive hauling capacity. It gives us the flexibility to react quickly when delivery needs change. Our effective logistics operation keeps those trucks loaded and dispatched for top efficiency and schedule performance so your steel is delivered economically and on time.
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
“I would recommend Frederick Steel to anyone who needs peak performance from their steel supplier. For 40 years we’ve been buying angle, beam, flat bar and tubing cut-to-size from Frederick. They offer quality at a fair price, but the biggest difference is their people. Their sales staff is very knowledgeable, they understand our needs, and one day turnaround is the standard I get from Frederick Steel. ”

“Sure, I can get steel from anyone, and the market pretty much sets the price. But Frederick Steel IS RELIABILITY to me. They deliver ALL of my order when I need it, and that’s often the next day. They’ve even fixed problems for me that were created by other steel suppliers. That’s why I’ve been dealing with Frederick since 1985. We have more than a supply relationship . . . we have a real friendship.”

“We’ve been buying from Frederick Steel for over 20 years because they meet our quality specs, they are price competitive and very responsive. Others stock much of the structural we need, but Frederick stocks virtually all of it. And if a last-minute design change or some other surprise requires material I don’t have on hand, they pull out all the stops to get me what I need the next day. They make my job much easier.”
