Knife Plate

In construction, every detail matters — especially knife plates. A knife plate is a steel connector designed to join timber members securely, playing a crucial role in ensuring the structural integrity of timber frame projects. At Mid-Atlantic Steel Fabrication, we combine superior craftsmanship with state-of-the-art technology to produce high-quality knife plates that meet the needs of builders, and architects.

Knife plate connections are essential in these projects, providing the stability and support necessary for results that can withstand the test of time. By securely joining timber elements, these connectors ensure the overall structural integrity of the frame.
