Company Profile

Steele Solutions, Inc. was formed in July, 1996 by Dick Kuchler, Bill Benning, Mike Thelen and Terry Young, each of whom left Wildeck, Inc. Steele Solutions was formed with a mission to be a customer focused company whose people are committed to providing innovative steel designs, competitive products, and superior service by listening and responding to the requirements of the customers they serve. Kevin O'Neill joined the company as an owner in May of 1997.

Steele Solutions (often misspelled Steel Solutions) has experienced steady growth since 1996 and was recognized as one of the Fastest Growing Small Businesses in America by Entrepreneur Magazine in 1997. Since its inception the company has focused on the design, manufacturing and installation of mezzanines of all types. From free standing to rack supported, those attached to building columns or ceiling hung, Steele Solutions has been up to the task. In addition SSI provides all of the necessary accessories (stairways, gates, railings etc).

To meet increased customer demand and future growth, SSI moved to a larger, more efficient fabricating facility in 2004. In addition to more space, the new building allowed SSI to install a new, better quality paint system. This new system (including a oven to harden the paint) has enabled SSI to produce more mezzanines with a more durable paint finish.

Today Steele Solutions continues to be owned by Mike Thelen - as President, Terry Young - Vice President of Engineering, and Kevin O'Neill - Vice President of Sales. Dick Kuchler and Bill Benning have each retired from the company. The success of Steele Solutions is a direct result of putting together a team of hard working, dedicated professionals who bring unmatched passion to the mezzanine market.
