Steel / Metal Stud Framing in San Luis Rey, CA
Light-gauge steel and metal stud framing in San Luis Rey — interior partitions, tenant-improvement walls, soffits, and fire-rated assemblies. We frame the wall so the drywall stays flat: Mission Avenue shops, San Luis Rey Avenue interiors, and house remodels in 92057 and 92058.
San Luis Rey Framing From the Fairfield Shop
Ron Hogan Drywall has been family-owned since 1970. We are based in Fairfield, not a Mission Avenue storefront. San Luis Rey is a neighborhood of Oceanside along the San Luis Rey River — not its own city, not Vista, and not Camp Pendleton. There is no City of San Luis Rey Building Department. This page is steel / metal stud framing at San Luis Rey / Oceanside addresses — with 92068 as the historic P.O. Box ZIP on this page and 92057 / 92058 as the street ZIPs — Mission Avenue, San Luis Rey Avenue, and Douglas Drive. The street decides the bid.
Text “San Luis Rey” with the plans or a photo of the room. If the scope is interior metal studs — or frame-and-hang on the same trip — we schedule it.
Metal Stud Work We Do in San Luis Rey
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in 92057 and 92058 San Luis Rey addresses. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Mission Avenue TIs
Shop, restaurant, office, and neighborhood build-outs on Mission Avenue (Highway 76) when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
San Luis Rey Avenue and Douglas Drive interiors
Shop partitions and house walls on San Luis Rey Avenue, Douglas Drive, El Camino Real, and Rancho Del Oro Drive. Downtown Oceanside and Vista sit on the edges — the city line still decides the permit office.
Soffits, bulkheads, and chases
Dropped ceilings, kitchen hood wraps, and framed openings so boxes, ducts, and lights have a home before drywall.
Fire-rated and heavier-gauge walls
Listed assemblies, Type X board later, and heavier studs when the plan or the engineer calls for them. The rating is the whole wall — not the stud alone.
House remodel and ADU partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing San Luis Rey house when the finish needs a straighter plane than bowed lumber. Wood structure stays wood unless the plan says otherwise. Metal vs wood →
Frame and hang together
One crew frames the metal, hangs the board, and can finish it. Split bids leave missing backing and wavy walls. Services →
Which Stud Belongs on a San Luis Rey Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Mission Avenue TI, neighborhood shop, rated walls, or a remodel that needs a flat plane for Level 4 / Level 5 | You need beams, columns, or structure that hold the building up — that is a different contractor |
| 25-ga interior studs | Short, non-load-bearing partitions with a normal finish | Tall walls, high-abuse corridors, or a spec that names 20-ga or heavier |
| 20-ga / heavier track and studs | Taller commercial walls, Mission Avenue TIs, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most San Luis Rey house walls with no commercial spec | The plan already says steel, or the finish will show every bow |
| Furring / hat channel on masonry | Concrete or masonry walls that need a cavity for boxes before drywall | Glue-only board on a finished living space |

San Luis Rey Streets, ZIP, and Permits
San Luis Rey is a neighborhood of Oceanside — not an incorporated city. Street ZIPs are 92057 and 92058. 92068 is the San Luis Rey P.O. Box ZIP. Area codes are 760 and 442. Text the street so the bid matches City of Oceanside Building — not City of Vista Building, not City of Carlsbad Building, and not San Diego County Planning & Development Services.
Permits for San Luis Rey / Oceanside addresses run through the City of Oceanside Building Division, 300 North Coast Highway, Oceanside, CA 92054. Call (760) 435-4373 for Building and (760) 435-3925 for inspections. Use eTRAKiT for applications and records. Hours are Monday–Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Friday 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. City of Vista Building is a different office. City of Carlsbad Building is a different office. San Diego County Building Services is a different office.
Downtown Oceanside sits west. Vista sits east. Camp Pendleton sits north. Carlsbad sits south. Oceanside citywide has its own framing page. Text the street so the bid matches City of Oceanside — not a Vista block and not a County address that only uses a San Luis Rey mailing name.
The neighborhood sits on Mission Avenue (Highway 76 / San Luis Rey Mission Expressway), San Luis Rey Avenue, Douglas Drive, El Camino Real, Rancho Del Oro Drive, and Old River Street. Occupied houses and open shops change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Mission Avenue tenant wall like a bedroom 2×4 — or hanging a Level 5 commercial finish on house framing that only needed wood hang-only. Interior metal studs do not hold the building up. Occupied houses and open shops need a clean layout, backing for cabinets and TVs, and a stud plane the finish can live with. Matching the spec still beats guessing the gauge. Send the plan sheet or a wide shot of the room. That photo decides wood hang-only vs new metal studs faster than a ZIP code.
