Structural steel sorted from first plan to last bolt

  • Full scope structural steel fabrication and installation anywhere in New Zealand
  • Beams, columns and steelwork measured, cut, assembled and put in place by qualified tradespeople
  • Steel supplied for strengthening, repairs and upgrades so your building does its job for years to come
Based in Auckland, supplying structural steel across New Zealand and overseas when required

Everything sorted in-house, from drawings to install


Running the job through one provider - from drawings and workshop fabrication to install and final checks - means you are not left managing multiple trades. Small jobs get sorted directly, while bigger projects link up clearly with your architect, engineer or builder.

Details are confirmed before steel fabrication begins, cutting out guesswork. Projects often include:
  • Fabrication of I-beams, H-beams, RSJs, UB, UPFC, lintels, columns, portals and trusses
  • Complete steel assembly and on-site installation
  • Scheduling with other trades to keep everything moving together
If you need just a couple of beams for a home renovation or a full structural steel frame for a shopping centre or hangar, the job is scaled to suit.

You deal with one contact from start to finish, with
site welding organised as needed. Changes in plans or extra joins get handled on the spot, so you are not left waiting.

Steelwork for builds that do not fit a template

No two projects are the same. Your job is not forced into a standard process. The workshop handles custom brackets, complex assemblies and oversized structural steel - everything is checked and fitted before it leaves for site.

This means you get a better fit, less time fixing things on site and steel that goes in as planned.
If the original plans do not work out, solutions are found so you still get what you need. Shifting deadlines and project requirements are handled directly. If the job will take two weeks, you will know up front.
Project outcomes can include:
  • Architectural steelwork with a high-spec finish
  • Seismic upgrades for earthquake resistance
  • Repairs or extra bracing for existing structures
  • Steel for retail, commercial and industrial builds

Every piece checked, certified and documented


Steel does not leave the workshop until it meets the mark. Each part is checked and tested in-house. Welders hold current tickets and follow the right codes. You receive all documents needed for council signoff or compliance, so you are ready for inspections. You get:
  • Steelwork that passes inspection without hassle
  • Less time spent chasing compliance paperwork
  • Consistent, checked quality for your build
Health and safety requirements are met with Site Safe and Sitewise. Producer statements and all required documentation are handed over with the finished job. If something needs sorting, it is fixed before the steel leaves the shop.

Site assembly and install matched to real conditions
