Our fabrication shop and showroom are right here in Kent at 18642 68th Ave S, so there is no travel surcharge on Kent projects the way there would be on a job in Cle Elum or out on the peninsula.

And if you want to see glass panels and hardware finishes in person before you commit, you are only a few minutes from the showroom. Being local is a real advantage on a Kent job, not just a marketing line.
