I am building a smoker out of a 275 oil heating tank not a professional in the industry. First time I've dealt with Arlo in my local community of Racine Wisconsin at the Charisse have an absolutely awesome their sense of humor and personality. Will keep me coming back for any needs that I have. I've welded for years just don't do it for a living anymore and have questions about different options and they fulfilled every that I had even though they're struggling with not having a sheer which delays my project they assured me it would be done next week and they'll take care of my cut having employees like this is a true blessing to deal with when you're a consumer hats off to both of them and the guys that were cutting the metal too everybody was wonderful short work of my order even when I changed it on them, which I'll be doing again I'm sure thank you, Charisse and Vince. If I was unemployed, I'd come and work for you. Thank you once Bill read more

There are so many great things I wish to share about Alro Metals Outlet and the customer service/sales team there. I work in design and fabrication, but in a very different manner than an engineer might. My team and I make beautiful, decorative props, decor, art installations, etc. No two projects are the same! Behind the beauty and finished products, there often exists a "brace part" a behind the scenes, not always pretty, structural element. These parts may support a prop, or make something standoff off a building, etc. As an artist, (not a trained engineer type) I have a general idea of what to do from my lengthy career of "making" and collaborations with other production partners. BUT! Different projects have different needs and variables. The raw material qualities and specs must be considered from the start. To be 100% sure, or very close to, I prefer to discuss with a pro. That my friends, is where Lou at Alro Metals Outlet in Euclid comes in. Lou is one of the friendliest, experienced, and most helpful sale persons I have met in a very long time. Lou expresses a general interest in the project I need raw materials for, and a "how can I help?" manner from the start. Lou always listens to my description of the project, my concerns, budget range- and comes back with a suggestion or 3. I highly recommend visiting this location for raw metal goods, budget conscious prices, and most of all, an experienced staff to help guide you if need be. Thanks LOU and Alro for being there every time! read more
