If you’re outsourcing your metal fabrication to shops across the country, you’re probably spending more than you need to — and waiting longer than you should. From rising freight costs to communication delays, distant suppliers often create more problems than they solve.
That’s why more companies are rethinking their partnerships and looking closer to home.
At Eagle Metalcraft, located right here in the Syracuse, NY area, we offer precision fabrication, CNC machining, and full assembly services without the added costs of cross-country shipping or extended lead times. With us, you’re not just placing an order or teaming up with a local fabrication partner — you’re building a relationship with a team that’s local, responsive, and invested in your success.
The Hidden Costs of Distant Vendors
When suppliers are hundreds or thousands of miles away, every part comes with baggage:
- Expensive shipping and handling
- Delays from transport or weather
- Slower revisions due to time zone gaps
- Limited accountability and little to no face-to-face connection
It’s not just inconvenient — it’s inefficient. And in today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, speed and trust are everything.
We’re Right Here. And Ready.
Located in Syracuse, NY, Eagle Metalcraft has been a trusted name in precision metal fabrication, CNC machining, and custom assembly for over 70 years. Our clients don’t need to gamble on far-off suppliers — they get top-tier service, faster turnaround, and better collaboration from a team just down the road.

Frequently Asked Questions
We work with a lot of companies that require some sort of fabrication outsourcing. Here are a few questions that pop up.
We already work with someone — why switch?
You don’t have to switch everything all at once. Start with one job — maybe a prototype or a repeat part you’ve been sourcing remotely. You’ll see how much smoother and faster it is when your supplier is local, responsive, and invested in your success. We want to be your go to local fabrication partner, but we understand that may take time.
Can you handle complex, regulated projects?
Yes. We serve high-precision, high-compliance industries like semiconductor, medical, electronics, and defense. We are ITAR-registered, and we’re advancing our cybersecurity practices toward full NIST SP 800‑171 compliance.
How fast can you turn around parts?
Often faster than distant vendors — especially when you factor in shipping time. Because we’re close, we can meet tight deadlines and even handle urgent reworks or design changes on the fly.
What if I need a site visit or design help?
We love it when customers stop by. Our engineers and machinists can walk through your drawings, troubleshoot challenges, and collaborate directly with your team — in person, not over a grainy Zoom call.
What’s the first step?
Reach out. Send us a file. Let’s have a conversation about what you need, what’s not working with your current supplier, and how we can help. No pressure — just honest solutions.
