Structural Steelwork
We supply and install steel frames ranging from 10 to 500 tonnes, including portal frames and complex structures. Our UKCA-compliant fabrication ensures precision for both new builds and renovations. Clients benefit from our technical expertise and end-to-end project management from initial design to final installation.
Guarding Systems
We create custom guarding solutions in mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium for stairs, balconies, and industrial settings. Our systems combine safety compliance with aesthetic flexibility, offering multiple finish options to match architectural requirements while ensuring long-term durability.
Bespoke Balconies
Our adaptable bolt-on balcony systems allow complete design customisation while maintaining structural integrity. Unlike standard solutions, we deliver tailored products that align with specific architectural visions, using high-quality materials suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
Custom Staircases
We design and fabricate staircases for industrial, commercial, and residential properties in various configurations. Our solutions incorporate stringers, steps, and guarding, combining functionality with design flexibility. Each staircase is engineered for safety and longevity while meeting individual client specifications.
Concept-to-Completion Service
From initial 3D modelling to final installation, we manage every project stage internally. Our BIM-compliant software identifies potential issues early, reducing delays. This integrated approach ensures seamless coordination between design, fabrication, and installation phases for efficient, cost-effective delivery.
