Frame damage you can't see. Measurements you can.
Frame damage affects alignment, handling, and structural safety — even when it's invisible to the naked eye. Our state-of-the-art equipment measures your vehicle's structural geometry to the millimeter and restores it to exact manufacturer tolerances, with documentation to prove it.

Precision equipment, measurable results
Modern vehicles — unibody cars and full-frame trucks alike — are engineered to exact structural geometry. After a significant impact, "looks straight" isn't good enough: a frame that's off by a few millimeters changes how your vehicle steers, wears tires, and performs in the next collision. Our frame equipment measures dozens of reference points against the manufacturer's specification database and pulls the structure back to factory tolerances.
- Computerized frame measurement and analysis
- Hydraulic straightening to factory tolerances
- Unibody and full-frame vehicles
- Before-and-after measurement documentation
- Pre-delivery alignment and quality inspection
Structural damage in our Englewood shop — measured, straightened, and verified.
Measured, straightened, verified — five exact steps
Structural repair is the one place where "close enough" is never acceptable. Here’s our process.
Computerized Measurement
Laser targets map dozens of structural reference points on your vehicle and compare them to the manufacturer's specification database — revealing damage no visual inspection can catch.
Damage Analysis & Repair Plan
We determine which sections can be pulled back to spec and which must be replaced, then document the plan in a written estimate for you and your insurance carrier.
Hydraulic Straightening
Anchored to the frame bench, controlled hydraulic pulls move the structure back into factory geometry — gradually, precisely, and without stressing undamaged sections.
Re-Measurement & Verification
The structure is measured again and confirmed to millimeter tolerances. You get the documentation — proof the frame is straight, not a promise.
Alignment & Road Test
A wheel alignment and road test verify the vehicle tracks straight and handles correctly before it's returned to you.
Six signs your vehicle may have frame damage
After any significant impact, watch for these symptoms — each one is a reason to get your structure measured, not guessed at.
Uneven Panel Gaps
Doors, hood, or trunk gaps that are wider on one side than the other often trace back to a shifted structure underneath.
Pulling or Off-Center Steering
A vehicle that drifts, pulls, or needs the wheel held off-center to drive straight may have frame misalignment an alignment alone can’t fix.
Uneven Tire Wear
Rapid or uneven wear across tires — especially after an accident — signals the wheels aren’t sitting where the factory intended.
Doors That Don't Close Right
Doors, hoods, or tailgates that bind, rub, or need a slam are classic symptoms of structural shift.
Visible Bends or Creases
Kinks, wrinkles, or crush damage on frame rails visible from under the vehicle call for immediate measurement.
Vehicle Sits Unevenly
One corner sitting lower — with suspension ruled out — can indicate a twisted structure carrying weight unevenly.
Structural claims need proof — we provide it
Frame damage is almost always part of a collision claim, and it's the part where documentation matters most. Insurance carriers need evidence of what's bent and proof of what was fixed; you need certainty the vehicle is safe. Our computerized measurement system produces both — a before-and-after record that satisfies the adjuster and belongs in your glovebox.
We handle the entire claim conversation: initial documentation, the repair plan, supplements if teardown reveals more damage, and direct billing. If damage is severe enough that repair may not make economic sense, we'll tell you before work begins — an honest total-loss conversation beats a compromised repair every time.
And remember: in Colorado, you choose your repair shop. For structural work especially, choose the shop with measurement equipment — not the one that eyeballs it.
Documentation you receive
- Baseline computerized measurement report
- Written repair plan and estimate
- Supplement documentation for hidden damage
