A protective clear coat finish highlights the richness and durability of hot rolled steel. Natural mill scale, welds and grinder marks make each one unique in its own way.
Hot rolled steel has a very characteristic dark blue-grey mill scale oxide finish that is a result of the manufacturing process at the steel mill. The cooling process at the steel mill allows the metal to oxidize, producing a steel sheet that is blue-gray color towards the edges and dark gray towards the center. Similar to wood grain, marble or granite, each steel sheet is different.
Standard Feet
Most of our cabinets include heavy duty levelers built-in into the feet. We also include self-adhesive felt pads for placing underneath to protect flooring and/or prevent scratches.
Casters Upgrade Options
If casters can be installed they will be a selectable option via a pull down menu. The following options are available for most items. Casters are all heavy-duty with ratings of 700-800lbs each. Casters are also taller than the feet and will raise the cabinet higher off the ground.
Swivel Steel Caster
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)
Rubber Swivel
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)

Fixed Steel Caster
2-1/2" taller than feet (6-1/2" overall)
Low Profile Fixed Steel
1-1/2" taller than feet (5-1/2" overall)

First let me say that Jose was excellent to work with. Always a quick response to any concerns or questions I had and even offered come custom change options. The bed is great! I love the look of the steel and design. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. Although somewhat heavy it comes in several pieces so it was easy to carry. I was able to put the bed together by myself. I am using plywood as a bunky board. I highly recommend Jose and Modern Industrial Furniture if you are going for this look.
Very nice bed! It is well made and it came nicely packaged. We had no problems putting it together. Will post picture when we get the whole room set up. Good communication from the owner!
