Who WE Are

WE are Professional Installation and Fabrication Specialists

Westmont Engineering was founded in Westmont, Illinois in 1936 during the challenges of the Great Depression. Jay D. Morey would travel across the country, picking up work wherever available, including mission-critical conveyor systems for the USPS. Soon joined by his sons Stillman and Howard, the Morey family was dedicated to building Westmont Engineering based on hard work done well.

Over the years, Westmont developed expertise in installations across a wide variety of projects. These installations have spanned from high-rise window washers to malted milk ball machines. Westmont has done it all—from fabricating a 30ft. diameter automatic turntable, to a customized porpoise gate for Brookfield Zoo. As client needs have grown, so have Westmont’s capabilities.

We added internal fabrication capabilities and equipment, including a new state of the art beamline and high definition plasma table to better manage projects, budgets and timelines. Westmont has also innovated specialized methods for fabricating clean design structural platforms to meet the hygienic needs of food, beverage and pharmaceutical companies while simultaneously reducing installation time.

    "Safety Better than Anyone"

    “With minimal mechanical staff available, I rely on Westmont for all my emergency repairs on a moment’s notice. And when I have design or equipment enhancement needs, they deliver incredible quality and timely work. They also do safety better than anyone I’ve worked with for 30 years. They are responsive, dedicated and intent on my plant being successful, and very important to me, they treat me like part of their family. They have my highest recommendation.”

    "Time Sensitive Solution"

    "Over the past ten years, Westmont Engineering has been contracted by our firm to provide varying degrees of structural steel fabrications. Projects have ranged from simple machining tasks to extensive engineered pipe support systems. We are often faced with some fairly serious time constraints and our construction needs are very demanding. I am able to rely on shop foreman Jesse and the rest of the Westmont Engineering staff to provide an economical and time-sensitive solution for all of our needs."
