Is it Really American Made?

There's a difference between “American made” and “an American made company”.  We make our hinges, latches, drop rods, and molded vinyl caps and accessories right here.  From start to finish.

We could import our products and tell everybody that we are “an American made company”, and that would be technically true because even if the products are imported, the company was made in America.

Instead, we use American made materials*, American labor, and our own designs to make everything right here.

Come see us at our facilities in East Troy, Wisconsin.  Then ask your supplier to see their production facility. (Have your passport handy!)

*Certificates of origin available upon request

While we recently took time to thank all those wholesalers who carry our products, we owe a special debt of gratitude to those contractors who have insisted on top quality, innovative products from Modern Fence Technologies. They helped inspire us to weather the storm over the last ten years, and we hope that we have done at least the same for them.

We have quite a few contractors who buy direct from us. In large part, this came about because for whatever reason, the wholesalers they buy fencing from do not offer the American made hardware from MFT that contractors wanted.

Companies that offer top quality, name brand, guaranteed products are typically more profitable than those that offer the same imported, commoditized, generic hardware offered by their competitors. By differentiating themselves from the rest, they are setting themselves apart from the pack. By offering reliable products, they are justifying a better price, with fewer call backs.


To all our contractor friends out there, demanding the best, thank you. We couldn't do this without you!  We're here for you.
