January and February have been a busy month for our teams. We’ve been working up a sweat taking on tough projects from many clients and bringing them to life. Let’s take a look at what we’ve achieved this month and the skills we’ve successfully honed.
New Stainless Steel Handrails
High-quality stainless steel fabrications are our forte. This project required a special approach to the aesthetic appearance of the downward stairs. The goal was to minimise the use of galvanised stainless-steel while creating guardrails to make the stairs safe from all sides.
Our team of engineers and designers came up with this bespoke solution, which has cut costs for the clients and substantially improved the curb appeal of the building while abiding by construction project regulations.
Refurbishing A Military Box
We love the opportunity to take on unique refurbishments for private customers. This military box came to us in such poor condition that if the owner would have waited a couple more years, we may not have been able to help.
Our team of refurbishment specialists cleaned the metal and carefully stripped it of old paint. We found several small holes which needed minor repairs before painting. We then applied two coats of durable epoxy paint to ensure a glossy finish and longevity.
Blasting & Repainting
When it comes to repainting projects, the toughest step is removing the old coatings. We used shot blasting to prep the steelwork before applying a protective coating. This project required abrasive blasting until all the old paint, grease and rust was stripped away.
Shot blasting this piece of machinery was time-consuming due to numerous hard-to-reach spots. After the paint and other residue was fully removed, we chose RAL 6018 colour to repaint the surface. The vibrant shade makes the machine look as good as new and will protect it from rust damage for many more years.
Staircase
The staircase was Design and building in our Workshop shot blasted and powder coated in our coating Plant then fitted by our site team.
