Pacific Blue Drafting is the dedicated detailing department your shop never built. We turn contract documents and specs into submittal-ready shop drawings for architectural sheet metal installers.
Most growing sheet metal subcontractors have no dedicated detailing team — so shop drawings land on the PM's desk. That's the exact pressure point we relieve.
Drawings pile up faster than your team can produce them, and every new award makes the queue longer.
Approvals stall when shop drawings aren't ready, putting fabrication and field schedules at risk.
Managing two to three active jobs and drafting at night isn't sustainable — and it isn't where their value is.
From a single coping cap to a complete rainscreen package, we detail the components your crews install in the field.
Coping caps, fascia, gravel stops, edge metal and custom roof-perimeter assemblies.
ACM/MCM composite, plate, flat-lock, standing-seam, rainscreen and insulated metal panels.
Equipment and mechanical screens, louver frames and surrounds, sunshades and exterior sunscreens.
Entrance, decorative and equipment canopies, walkway covers, trellises and pergolas.
Column covers, beam wraps, sign bands, accent bands and ornamental sheet metal features.
Counter, base, through-wall, cap, apron, valley and curtain-wall flashings — detailed to keep water out.
Gutters, downspouts, scuppers and collector boxes engineered for the building's drainage.
Soffit panel systems, metal ceilings, exterior ceilings, cornices, belt courses and water tables.
Custom-formed profiles, brake-metal shapes, reveals, trim, closures and joint covers.
Every sheet is coordinated to the architectural intent, the substrate, and the way your crews actually build — clear dimensions, callouts, and connection details that hold up in the field.
A look at the building types our detailing supports — institutional, commercial, hospitality and multifamily envelopes.
Completed projects featuring architectural sheet metal detailed by Pacific Blue Drafting.
Send us what you have. We take it from contract documents to approved drawings — and stay with you through revisions.
Contract drawings, specs, and any markups. A quick scope call sets priorities and deadlines.
We produce coordinated, layered shop drawings for each system — clean, dimensioned, and spec-driven.
You receive submittal-ready sheets to check and forward to the architect or GC for approval.
We turn around back-check comments fast and support you straight through to released-for-fabrication.
We work to your submittal dates, not ours — so approvals never wait on drawings.
We detail architectural sheet metal all day — coping, panels, flashings, screens — not generic CAD.
Overflow capacity for one busy project or a steady extension of your team across many.
Coordinated, clearly annotated drawings that fabricate and install right the first time.
Detailing architectural sheet metal since 2003 — over two decades supporting installation subcontractors.
