Universal beams and columns cut, drilled and plated to drawing.

02

Frames

Goal-post and portal frames for openings, extensions and buildings.

03

Mezzanines & platforms

Mezzanine floors, access platforms and walkways.

04

Stairs & balustrades

Staircases, handrails and balustrades, internal and external.

05

Lintels & supports

Lintels, padstones and support steel for builders and contractors.

06

Architectural steel

Feature and architectural steelwork to the architect's detail.

Accuracy first

Checked against the drawing before it leaves

Structural work lives or dies on accuracy. We fabricate to your structural engineer's or architect's drawings and check every member before it leaves the shop. Connection plates, cleats and end plates are profiled on our own CNC plasma table — no waiting on a third-party cutter.

We work with main contractors, builders, architects and engineers on commercial, industrial and residential projects — and with homeowners who need a single beam for a knock-through. No job is too small to quote properly.

Finishes & protection

Shot-blast and primed or painted to spec for internal steel; hot-dip galvanised for external and exposed steel. We'll recommend the right protection and price it clearly.

Delivery to site

Delivered to suit your programme, coordinated with your main contractor or site manager. Erection can be arranged for the right project — ask when you enquire.

Accreditation

CHAS accredited; members of the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce and Made in Britain. Current certification available with your quote.
In-house capability

Connection steel profiled under our own roof

Cleats, end plates, base plates and stiffeners are cut on our own 4m x 2m plasma table in thicknesses up to 45mm — so structural connection steel never waits on a third-party cutter, and details can be adjusted without losing a week.

Recent structural fabrication

Beams with welded stiffeners and end plates, connection plates profiled on our own table, and members marked up to the drawing item numbers so nothing is guessed at on site. A look at how the work is actually done.

Common questions

Structural Steel Fabrication — your questions answered

What structural steelwork do you fabricate?

Beams, columns, portal frames, mezzanine and access platforms, walkways, staircases, balustrades, lintels and support steel — profiled, fabricated and finished to your engineer's drawings.

Do you work to engineer's drawings?

Yes. Structural work is fabricated to your engineer's or architect's drawings and specification. We can also work with your engineer on connection details and buildability.

What finishes are available?

Shot-blast and primed, painted to your spec, or hot-dip galvanised for external steel. Tell us the environment and we'll recommend the right protection.

Do you deliver to site?

Yes — UK-wide, to suit your programme. Erection can be arranged for the right project; ask when you enquire.

Do you handle small structural jobs?

Absolutely — a single goal-post frame for a knock-through, a lintel, a support beam or a set of brackets. Small jobs are quoted the same way as large ones.

Are you accredited?

We are CHAS accredited and members of the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce and Made in Britain. Ask us for current certification with your quote.
