Custom Fabrication

Most grating projects are not rectangles. Machines weld the standard panels; skilled manual welders — with 15+ years of experience — build the irregular, press-locked and heavy-duty custom work around them, all detailed from your drawings by our CAD technicians.

Welders fabricating custom steel grating panels to drawings

What we fabricate

  • Irregular shapes: circular, fan-shaped, trapezoidal, notched and curved-edge panels
  • Cut-outs for columns, pipes, vessel nozzles and cable trays, with full banding
  • Toe plates / kick plates welded to platform edges
  • Stair treads with nosing, end plates and project hole patterns
  • Compound grating with checkered plate tops
  • Hinged, removable and lockable covers with lifting features

Machine precision, manual skill

Three press-welding lines produce high-volume standard panels at consistent quality. Around them, manual welders with more than 15 years of experience handle what machines cannot: one-off irregular panels, heavy sections, press-locked style work and repairs to fit site conditions.

Two dedicated CAD detailing technicians convert your general arrangement drawings into fabrication-ready panel drawings, each panel numbered by area and installation sequence.

How a custom order runs

Send your drawings and requirements. We confirm specifications — span, load, material, finish — then detail panels, confirm the layout with you, produce, inspect, galvanize and pack in installation sequence. You receive fabrication drawings for approval before production starts.

Process

How It Works

  1. Send drawings

    PDF, CAD or clear sketches with span direction and loads.

  2. Specification confirmation

    Bar size, spacing, material, surface and finish agreed.

  3. Panel detailing

    CAD panel drawings with numbering issued for approval.

  4. Production

    Press-welded standards plus manual custom fabrication.

  5. QC & galvanizing

    Dimensional checks, then hot-dip galvanizing with reports.

  6. Export packing

    Tagged, bundled and loaded in installation sequence.

Checklist

What to Prepare

  • Marking and packing instructions

FAQ

Custom Fabrication FAQs

Can you work from my layout drawings?
Yes — that is our normal workflow. CAD technicians detail every panel from your drawings and issue them for your approval before production.
What is the largest panel you can make?
Press-welded panels run up to about 6100 mm in the bearing bar direction and 1000–1200 mm wide; larger areas are split into numbered panels. Single panels are kept within roughly 70–100 kg for safe handling and galvanizing.
Can you make circular or fan-shaped panels?
Yes — irregular shapes are manual-welded and fully banded. Small openings below about 50 mm are reviewed with our technicians because zinc can bridge them during galvanizing.
Do you charge for detailing?
Panel detailing is part of the order workflow; any special engineering scope is clarified at quotation stage.
