We are a Lisburn-based metal fabrication company specialising in the design, fabrication and installation of commercial staircases and architectural metalwork for fit-out contractors, architects and designers across Northern Ireland.
Our business is focused on delivering high-quality, detail-driven metalwork for commercial and interior projects, where build quality, coordination and programme reliability are critical.
Unlike general fabrication workshops, we are structured specifically to support commercial fit-out and interior works. We understand the pressures of tight programmes, coordination with multiple trades, and the importance of clear communication from early design through to final installation.
Our approach is practical, collaborative and focused on reducing risk for our clients.
We deliver architectural and specialist metalwork for commercial interiors. This includes feature steelwork and specialist finishes such as brass, where precision, detailing and craftsmanship are essential.
These elements often form key visual features within a space, and we take particular care in material selection, finishing quality and installation to achieve the intended design outcome.
Across many projects, we have encountered instances where value engineering has been essential to achieving the right balance between design ambition and budget. For this project, we worked closely with the client to deliver a cost-effective solution without compromising on quality or intent. Where solid brass was not feasible, we reimagined the concept using mild steel, crafting the back bar shelving unit and screens with the same attention to detail and proportion. Finished with a durable polyester powder coat, the result delivers a refined, contemporary aesthetic while maintaining strength, longevity, and value.
Staircases form another key part of our portfolio, with each project offering countless possibilities in design, material, and finish. From contemporary to traditional styles, we tailor every staircase to suit the space and the client’s vision. Our efficient in-house processes allow us to consistently deliver staircases on time, on budget, and fully compliant with building control requirements, ensuring a seamless journey from design through to installation.
Some clients require staircases that are purely functional, robust, compliant, and cost-effective solutions designed for safe and efficient use within factories or industrial settings. Others are looking for a staircase that makes a statement, becoming a standout feature within their commercial premises or home. We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver across this entire spectrum, providing practical, budget-conscious designs through to bespoke, visually striking staircases, and everything in between — all built with the same commitment to quality, safety, and craftsmanship.
