The inception of Atlantic Aluminum Products was ignited with the knowledge that we have the ability to make “It” better: better railing, a better screen system and a better place to work. By seeing a need and knowing that we could provide that need, AAP transformed from a humble startup; dedicated to upholding the integrity of our products and committed to every customer and team member. The legacy of AAP will thrive because it is built on a strategy that adapts with changing market places – without sacrificing our core values.
Here at Atlantic Aluminum Products, we pride ourselves on being the premier railing manufacturer on the East Coast. We’ve worked diligently over the last 25 years to create an atmosphere of excellence by providing a superior level of service and quality through a focus on integrity and innovation. Guided by our Governing Principles, AAP has grown from a single garage based start up to a cutting edge facility utilizing the latest in green manufacturing technologies to produce a quality product with the durability to last in an ever changing market. At its core, Atlantic Aluminum Products greatest strength has always been its people. Their diligence, compassion and commitment is the foundation upon which we have built our legacy; one on which will continue to thrive as we grow and adapt to new times and the changes they bring.
Our History
Atlantic Aluminum Products was founded by President/Owner Dan Schlabach in Greenwood, DE and officially opened its doors in 1996. As the owner of a successful business in Florida, Dan saw the opportunity to bring his vision to the Eastern Shore. As a local business with strong connections to our community and customers, we began humble with a commitment to upholding the integrity of our product and employees and provided a high level of service to our customers. Although our company has grown, we will continue to value these fundamental principles which have helped us grow into the company we are today.
Stability & Growth
In Spring 2007, we completed our first warehouse. This gave Atlantic Aluminum the ability to purchase direct from the aluminum mills – cutting out the middleman and reducing costs for our customers!
Spring 2008 brought completion of another fabrication facility. The new space allowed us to build and store more materials. This reduced our shipping overhead and benefited our customers with lower costs!
In Spring of 2018, we completed our transition into our current building. A 100,000 sq. ft. facility that allowed all departments to be centralized in one location and enabled a massive increase in product volume.
In Your Community
Atlantic Aluminum Products participates in many special events which focus on improving the well-being of families and communities. We have donated not only resources, but also our time to help our neighbors near and far.
During the holiday seasons from 2007 to 2016, AAP “adopted” children for the local Salvation Army’s Angel Tree Program. We collected toys, clothes, movies and games to help give local families a Merry Christmas.
In February 2008, Atlantic Aluminum Products was selected to take part in an episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The Delaware episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is unique, because it showcased the remodeling of not one, but two homes on Clayton Street in Wilmington.
In 2014, Atlantic Aluminum Products was proud to complete the siding and roofing at a Habitat for Humanity home in Concord Village, Seaford, DE for a single mother with two teenage daughters.
The chance to donate a screen porch for the Operation Finally Home in Milton, DE in 2018 was another incredible opportunity for Atlantic Aluminum to give back to a great cause.
AAP always looks for the opportunity to sponsor local sports teams to help out the children of the community.
