Steel / Metal Stud Framing in Van Nuys, CA
Light-gauge steel and metal stud framing in Van Nuys — interior partitions, tenant-improvement walls, soffits, and fire-rated assemblies. We frame the wall so the drywall stays flat: Van Nuys Boulevard shops and civic interiors, Victory Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard build-outs, Sherman Way suites, and house remodels in 91401, 91405, 91406, and 91411.
Van Nuys Framing From the Fairfield Shop
Ron Hogan Drywall has been family-owned since 1970. We are based in Fairfield, not a Van Nuys Boulevard storefront. Van Nuys is a City of Los Angeles neighborhood in the central San Fernando Valley. It is not its own city. Los Angeles annexed it in 1915. This page is steel / metal stud framing at Van Nuys 91401, 91405, 91406, and 91411 addresses — Van Nuys Boulevard, Sepulveda Boulevard, Victory Boulevard, Sherman Way, Vanowen Street, Oxnard Street, and Kester Avenue. It is not Sherman Oaks, Valley Glen, Panorama City, Lake Balboa, North Hills, or Northridge.
Text “Van Nuys” 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. The street decides the bid.
Metal Stud Work We Do in Van Nuys
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in 91401, 91405, 91406, and 91411. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Van Nuys Boulevard TIs
Shop, restaurant, medical, office, auto-row, and civic-center build-outs on Van Nuys Boulevard when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Victory, Sepulveda, Sherman Way, and Vanowen interiors
Shop partitions, office interiors, and house walls on Victory Boulevard, Sepulveda Boulevard, Sherman Way, Vanowen Street, Oxnard Street, Burbank Boulevard, Kester Avenue, Woodman Avenue, and Hazeltine Avenue.
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 Van Nuys 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 Van Nuys Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Van Nuys Boulevard TI, civic-center suite, Victory or Sepulveda 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, shop TIs, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most Van Nuys 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 |

Van Nuys Streets, ZIP, and Permits
Van Nuys is a City of Los Angeles neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley. It is not its own city. Street ZIPs on this page are 91401, 91405, 91406, and 91411. 91404, 91407, 91408, 91409, and 91410 are P.O. Boxes. Area codes are 818 and 747. Permits run through the City of Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS). The Valley Development Services Center is in Van Nuys: 6262 Van Nuys Boulevard, 2nd Floor, Room 251, Van Nuys, CA 91401. Request inspections at (888) 524-2845 or dial 311. From outside the city, call (213) 473-3231. Use ladbs.org. The Valley Municipal Building on Van Nuys Boulevard is Los Angeles city government — not a separate Van Nuys city hall. This is not unincorporated Los Angeles County. Text the street so the bid matches Van Nuys — not Sherman Oaks, Valley Glen, Panorama City, Lake Balboa, or North Hills.
Van Nuys Boulevard is the commercial and civic spine — shops, offices, auto-row suites, and Government Center interiors. Victory Boulevard, Sepulveda Boulevard, Sherman Way, Vanowen Street, Oxnard Street, Burbank Boulevard, Kester Avenue, Woodman Avenue, and Hazeltine Avenue show up on a lot of plans. Occupied houses and open shops change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Van Nuys Boulevard 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.
