Using the SurePly system is the most economical, most versatile, and most efficient way to form concrete! The 12 different options for baked-on powder coating leaves a smooth, durable, and more weather-resistant finish on every single piece of forming equipment we manufacture. […]
The First Bracing Innovation in Fifty Years!
The new Modular Brace requires 50% fewer braces for a typical tilt-up application. Of course, fewer braces reduce brace inventory, job site handling, panel attachment and dismantling time.
These savings are compounded when you consider all the related steps in the process. There are 50% fewer brace inserts, 50% fewer brace attachments, 50% fewer bolts, 50% fewer man-lifts, and 50% fewer shipments.
The Modular Brace savings even extend beyond the latest job once you realize the same components can be used to build different brace sizes. There’s no need to stock every brace size when you can reconfigure the components with a handful of nuts and bolts.

Renovate and Always be Rental-Ready!
Repair worn and damaged equipment at a fraction of the cost of replacement. The SureBuilt renovation team is ready to inspect, recondition and reface your concrete forming systems to original factory specifications and appearance.
Form renovation can be performed on steel-frame, plywood-face, handset systems, including the Ellis Pro-Form, EMI Elite, Symons Steel-Ply and SureBuilt SurePly brands.
Form renovation will include the following steps:
- Remove plywood from frames
- Inspect and sort frames
- Spot-weld frames (incidental, only as needed)
- Shot-blast frames
- Powder-coat frames (12 standard color options)
- Install new 1/2” Birch plywood or 1/2″ HDO plywood
Form renovation does not include:
- Inbound or outbound freight charges
- Replacement crossmembers, end rails, handles, etc.
- Additional welding at hourly rate
If you prefer to renovate on your own, maybe when your crew has some downtime, then be sure to ask about frame-ready, cut-to-size birch plywood and attachment rivets. Contact your SureBuilt representative or fill out the Request a Quote form to learn more or get your forming equipment on the renovation schedule!
And Everything In-between!
The all-American form available in 12 optional colors. Try getting that from one of the other suppliers.
As these “suppliers” source panels in Asia and companies shut down US production altogether, it seems you’re being left with fewer choices… but not when it comes to SureBuilt!
Maybe because it’s the only American form with the following features:
- High-carbon 55,000 PSI structural US steel
- Rugged frame with 45% more contact weld
- Full 2”x2” crossmember every foot
- Added dado slots to make step footings easy
- Integral handle for carrying and setting
- Baked-on powder paint in 12 optional colors
- Long-lasting 1/2” Birch plywood with overlay
- Safety reminder label on every panel
- Panels in heights from 3’ to 10’, width 24”
- Fillers in heights from 3’ to 10’, widths 1” to 22”
Or maybe because it’s compatible with “other” handset forming systems, including Ellis Pro-Form, EMI Elite and Symons Steel-Ply.

Bolt Together the Brace You Need!
There’s no need to stock every possible brace size when you can simply reconfigure components using a handful of nuts and bolts.
The secret to the Modular Brace is a plate-to-plate connection with four torqued bolts (min 150 ft-lbs). This turns a selection of components into a single fixed unit.
Conventional pipe braces “telescope” to reach different lengths, but that sliding movement creates “slop” inside the sleeve and reduces capacity. That’s why you’ve had to tie up your money in a range of different sizes.
Not anymore! The plate-to-plate bolting of these patent pending modular components creates a “girder effect” that provides different sizes, while maintaining the structural integrity and load capacity. That means more brace sizes, from fewer components… and less inventory!
Now you can bolt together the brace you need, then take it apart and build something else. Start with the 40′ length, add End Connectors, and you have a 41′ Brace. Need a different size? Take off an End Connector, bolt on a 10′ length, add back the End Connector, and you now have a 51′ Brace. Need an even longer size? Add another 10′ length and have a 61′ Brace.

And Some Other Grate Stuff!
If you’re supplying concrete forms to construction sites with foundations, then why not provide the wells, ladders, grates and bucks, too?
Since egress requirements for below-grade escapes differ by region, SureBuilt can manufacture different shapes and sizes to be in compliance with local regulations. Round, square, stiff and typical arc shapes are available.
Window Wells
- Made of heavy-duty 18-gauge USA steel
- Corrugated for unique strength and durability
- Galvanized on backfill side to resist corrosion
- Good appearance, white finish on interior wall
Egress Escape Ladders
The heavy-duty design provides entry down into the well or exit from below grade living spaces. Heights include 4-Rung (48″), 5-Rung (60″), 6-Rung (72″) and 7-Rung (84″). Ladders can be painted in one of 12 color options.
Steel Grates
Stay on the safe side with Rebar Grates – made of angle iron that’s been rolled to match the well shape, and welded #3 safety bars capable of supporting over 400 lbs. Or choose the Mesh Grates to keep small debris from accumulating in the well. Grates can be painted in one of 12 color options.
Window Bucks
Window Bucks create the opening in the foundation wall. Once the concrete wall has been poured, the forms are disassembled and a window is installed in the frame created by the buck.
Check the Window Well brochure or Price List for common sizes. Become familiar with your local building codes, then contact us or request a quote.
Then You Signed Up for American-made Products!
If you or your customers qualified for a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan, then you certified that “To the extent feasible, I will purchase only American-made equipment and products.” That statement was part of the Borrower Application Form (page 2 excerpt, highlight added).
All of us, manufacturers, suppliers and contractors, should be looking for ways to put that statement into practice and support one another every chance we get.
Unlike other suppliers who routinely sell imported products, SureBuilt can help you hold up your end of the deal, and comply with that very important and very specific requirement.

The Slant Anchor assembly connects tilt-up or precast panels to the foundation. The assembly includes a load-rated Slant Anchor, foam Void Former, high-strength Ductile Bar and pre-packaged Grout. […]
Dowel Baskets After Dark!
These Dowel Baskets are part of the new Lakeland Dragstrip Commercial Park in Florida. The basket provides the load transfer and smooth slab-to-slab transition needed for this 700,000 square foot project.
The site, now under construction, takes it’s name from an old drag strip that had been located on the property.
The patent-pending plastic sleeve allows movement and the steel plate provides bearing capacity, without the risk of slab interlock and cracking, to assure a high-quality slab.
Quick product availability from SureBuilt, in the size needed, made all the difference for T&T Construction, the contractor on this fast-paced project.
SureBuilt has Dowels suitable for all kinds of ground level concrete, including floors, slabs and pavements.
