At Modfire, every fireplace begins with raw steel, skilled hands, and a dedication to modern design. Our manufacturing studio in Phoenix is the home of our creative and fabrication process. This is where each piece is shaped, welded and finished by artisans who understand both the technical demands of steelwork and the design principles that define mid century and contemporary styling. Modfire is not a reseller or a showroom-based retailer. We manufacture our own products, start to finish, using professional-grade equipment and a production process developed specifically for high performance outdoor fire features.
Handcrafted Steel Fire Features Made in Our Phoenix Studio
Our fabrication team works with domestic steel and commercial-grade materials that can withstand desert climates, seasonal temperature swings and years of outdoor use. Each fireplace is cut, formed and welded in-house using tools and techniques that allow for precision shaping and clean architectural lines. This approach ensures consistency, durability and the sculptural quality that has become a signature of the Modfire brand.
Steel is chosen for its strength, longevity and visual expression. In its raw form, it allows us to create the bold silhouettes that define models such as the Astrofire, Boxfire, Tribalfire and the Stratofire collection. In its finished state, steel accepts color in a rich and uniform way, which is why our powder coated finishes appear smooth, vibrant and modern.
Designed With Purpose and Built With Care
Modfire fireplaces are not mass produced. Each piece moves through a hands-on process that includes cutting, forming, grinding, welding, detailing, powder coating and inspection. This allows our team to reinforce our commitment to quality at every stage. The result is a finished fireplace that feels both artistic and engineered.
Because our designs are manufactured in small batches, we are able to maintain control over proportion, balance and finish. This approach supports the architectural integrity of our products and allows us to meet the expectations of homeowners, designers and builders who want a fireplace that is visually striking and structurally sound.
A Manufacturing Studio Rooted in Craft and Creativity
Our Phoenix studio is more than a production facility. It is where new concepts are developed, prototypes are evaluated and final models are refined. Inspiration often comes from classic mid century forms, desert modernism and the clean symmetry that defines much of the region's design language. These ideas become the foundation for new silhouettes that carry the Modfire signature.
While each fireplace is manufactured with consistency in mind, there is always an element of artisan character. The combination of handwork and technical skill gives Modfire products a presence that cannot be replicated by mass manufacturing or imported goods.
Finishes That Withstand the Climate
After fabrication and detailing, each fireplace undergoes a finishing process that enhances both performance and appearance. Powder coating creates a protective layer that resists heat, sun and environmental wear. This finish also provides the rich color palette Modfire is known for. The result is a fireplace that is visually expressive while still capable of enduring the outdoor conditions of the desert Southwest, Southern California and similar climates.
Manufactured for Homes That Value Design
Modfire fireplaces are frequently selected for architectural homes, design-focused remodels and outdoor spaces where style is as important as function. Because our products are manufactured in Phoenix, customers receive consistent quality and communication from a U.S.-based production team. Builders and designers appreciate the reliability of our fabrication timeline, while homeowners value the craftsmanship that defines each finished piece.
Why Manufacturing Matters
In a market filled with imported or mass-produced fireplaces, Modfire’s commitment to local manufacturing provides several advantages. Quality control is maintained in-house. Steel selection and finishing are consistent from one piece to the next. Production timelines are easier to manage. Most importantly, manufacturing our own fireplaces allows us to ensure that every detail supports the artistic identity of the brand.
Choosing a Modfire fireplace means choosing American-made steelwork, professional craftsmanship and a company that understands both the technical and creative sides of fire feature design.
