History

---

KNT FABRICATION LLC has been in business since 1996. Keith Christensen started the business wanting to help others with his skills and knowlege. He worked 2 jobs until finally in 1996 he succeeded in being self employed. Since then every year it has grown beyond his imagination. With 35 years experience his customers have come to know quality work. He started working in a small garage 24 x 30 at home until in 1996 when he finally built a true shop. 40 x 80 all steel frame shop. In 2001 he added on again so the shop was 80 x 80. Then in 2006 he again added on so it is 80’ x 130’. 2008 once again we've added another machine shop. It is 80 x 80 and will be used for repairs as well as storage for completed products, more steel as well as storage for machinery. The small shop he started in is now the warehouse for steel inventory and forklifts. This is truly a small business dream come true.
