2D Drafting Services

2D drafting services produce dimensioned plans, sections and details in AutoCAD for any discipline, when a project needs drawings rather than a model. Every job with our 2D drafting services starts with a free quote, back within 24 hours.

2D drafting services deliver dimensioned plans, sections and details as DWG and PDF

The sheets come back as layered, plot-ready DWG and PDF files: dimensioned plans, sections and elevations, plus their details and schedules. Every sheet from 2D drafting services is drawn in AutoCAD from what the project supplies.

2D drafting covers four disciplines

2D drafting covers four disciplines: architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP), and civil and site. Each has its own page with its own sheets, and the same AutoCAD files and PDF sets come back whichever one a project needs.

Architects, builders, engineers and firms that need drawings produced send us this work.

A 2D job does not need clean CAD files to start

A 2D job starts from hand sketches and redlines, PDFs and scanned drawings, existing DWG files, or photos with measurements. A rough set is quoted as readily as a tidy one.

Drawings suit sheet-based projects and a model suits coordinated 3D projects

A project needs drawings when its output is a set of sheets to build or permit from. It needs a model when its output is a coordinated 3D model, with the sheets drawn from that model. 2D drafting delivers the first in AutoCAD, and Revit modeling delivers the second.

2D drafting leaves conversion and mechanical work to other pages

A PDF or scan that only needs to become an editable DWG, with nothing new drawn, is conversion work. Parts, assemblies and manufacturing drawings are mechanical drafting. Both have their own pages, and 2D drafting covers the building disciplines above.

A lead reviews each 2D drawing set before it is delivered

A 2D set clears three QA stages before delivery. It starts with the drafter's own check, moves to a second drafter for a peer check and closes with a lead's QA/QC review. Unlimited revisions within the agreed scope belong to every 2D job.
