Where the work goes

Practical engineering across demanding applications

We work on parts, assemblies and installed steelwork where fit, function and repeatability matter. The common requirement is practical engineering that can be manufactured and delivered.

  • Public transport: wheelchair access ramps and boarding equipment
  • Stainless steel: staircases, balustrades and architectural metalwork
  • Motorsport and automotive: racing chassis and prototype structures
  • Broadcast, film and theatre: set metalwork, drums and folding assemblies
  • Construction and architectural: decorative balustrades, steel and glass
  • Heritage: replacement metalwork to conservation requirements
