days, depending on the complexity and quantity of your request. For larger or more

No! One of our core commitments is flexibility, which is why we have no
minimum order requirements. Whether you need a single custom grate or a large
batch for a commercial project, we’re here to meet your needs with no restrictions on
quantity.
We use high-quality, durable materials to fabricate our grates, ensuring they
can withstand heavy use and harsh environments. Our primary materials include:
- Steel bar grates for robust flooring and walkways.
- Galvanised grates for rust resistance, ideal for outdoor and trench
applications. - Swage-locked grates for smooth, high-load areas requiring extra safety.
Each of our grates is powder-coated to prevent corrosion, making them both
strong and long-lasting.
Absolutely! All of our grates are custom-fabricated to meet your exact
specifications. Whether you need a specific size, shape, or load-bearing capacity, we
will create a product that fits your project perfectly. Simply provide us with the details,
and we’ll work with you to ensure your custom grate is a precise match for your
needs.
We offer up to 10 different powder-coated colour options to match your
project’s aesthetic or safety needs. The powder-coating process not only adds colour
but also provides an extra layer of protection against rust and wear. Whether you’re
looking for standard industrial tones or vibrant colours, we can accommodate your
design preferences.
Our grates are designed for a wide range of applications, making them suitable for:
- Mechanical Rooms – Durable and strong grates for equipment and
ventilation. - Walkways & Flooring – Safe and slip-resistant options for foot traffic.
- Trenches & Drainage – Rust-resistant and smooth surface options for water drainage systems.
- Industrial & Commercial Areas – High-load capacity grates designed to
withstand heavy machinery. - Residential Projects – Customizable grates to fit patios, walkways, or unique home features. If you have a specific application in mind, feel free to contact us, and we’ll guide you to the best option for your project.
