Auto Body Framework
Auto Body Framework
Did you know that most of the safety features of your car are built right into the frame? Check any crash test report and you’ll see that the shape, size, and structure of your vehicle are designed specifically to protect the occupants of the vehicle from serious injury.
What happens if the structure of your vehicle is compromised in a collision? You may not be able to see the structural damage, but if the frame has been bent or twisted, it may result in more serious injury to yourself and your passengers in a future accident. Regardless of what method of construction, you need to realize that your vehicle’s body is your best protection against injuries in a collision. If that structure is damaged, you are at a much higher risk–and the injuries could be more serious.
When you bring your vehicle into the shop at Calumet Body Shop, we examine it thoroughly to evaluate the damage to your vehicle’s frame. If structural damage is detected, we mount the vehicle on a frame alignment machine. The machine is designed to straighten the vehicle’s frame and return it to its original factory specifications. If this is your situation, call us to discuss your car and let’s figure out how to proceed.
