We have many years of experience in supplying metalwork for architectural and structural purposes and can provide design and installation of beams, columns and steel angles. We carry out initial site surveys to take the necessary measurements, create a fabrication drawing, and provide you with a no-obligation quote.

Whether you need a beam for a new extension or a large structural frame, we can provide you with an efficient, tailored design and installation service.
Steel Services Our steel fabricators provide the construction and galvanising of steel for many different purposes including:
Gates Railings Structural Steelwork Balconies Fire Escapes Stainless Steel Reinforced Concrete Cladding & Roofing Security Fencing Fire Escapes Fire escapes are emergency exits that are mounted to the exterior of a building to create an escape route for people in to use in the event of a fire. Most commonly found on multi-storey residential buildings, steel fire escapes are exposed to rain and corrosion on a daily basis, however steel is durable, strong and tough, making it highly resistant to wear. Our engineers provide a wide range of steel fire escape designs and can create both normal and spiral structures. Our steel fabricators use the latest welding and fabrication methods to create structures. We can manufacture both single flight and multi-storey stairs, designing them in our workshop and fabricating them to your site.
Structural Steelwork Steel consists of iron and carbon, however low alloy steel may also contain molybdenum, nickel, chromium and manganese. We can produce low carbon steel, high carbon steel and stainless steel, depending on which structure it is required for. Structural steelwork we can produce includes parallel flange channels, tapered flange channels, universal beams and universal columns. We provide a full fabrication, welding and erection service for your structural steelwork. Building Regulations (Document B) states that structural steelwork must have a certain amount of fire resistance, depending on the size of the steel section, the temperature and the type of fire protection used.
Steel Gates Home security gates are usually installed with the purpose of blocking a driveway, doorway or passage. Our steel gates are popular as we can custom fit them to the size of the gap and we can create both simple and complex designs. Types of steel gate we can install are infills, double, single, sheeted, driveway and side gates. We can provide gates with a hot dip galvanised finish, a sliding bolt and fixed eye top hinge or a six-bar metal field gate. We use strong tubular nails and welded mesh cladding on the bottom section of the gate for additional security. The installation process involves setting up the posts, drilling holes in the ground and securing the gate using anchor bolts before hanging it.
