Custom Metal Fabrication for Precision and Versatility

When unique specifications are required, UIS’s custom fabrication services deliver flawless accuracy. For unconventional shapes or dimensions, UIS meets the demands with precision. Starting with a collaborative design consultation, each part is crafted with the final assembly in mind. Notable examples include stair lift wall plates and entrance columns at the Botree Hotel in London, which UIS brought to life through exact measurements, specialized forming, and custom finishes.

• Consideration of factors: Metal fatigue, weather resistance, and load dynamics for high-use areas such as access gates or stair balustrades ensures longevity.
• For exterior applications, galvanization or powder coating helps prevent corrosion and extends the life of components.
• With in-house manufacturing and a dedicated installation team, each piece integrates seamlessly.

Summary: UIS’s custom metalwork provides precision, protective finishes, and durability, enhancing functionality and longevity across various conditions.

Improve Efficiency with Sheet Metal Services

Sheet metal fabrication is essential in sectors from construction to manufacturing, where accuracy prevents costly adjustments or delays. UIS’s sheet metal solutions ensure that each component fits perfectly. Our fabrication team uses advanced methods, including laser cutting, CNC bending, and TIG welding, creating parts that need minimal modification during assembly.

• Case Study: At Foot Asylum on Oxford Street, precise fits were critical for the renovation’s tight schedule. By analyzing site measurements and using computer-aided design, UIS avoided potential issues, achieving a seamless installation.
• Pre-treated or coated components reduce maintenance needs and enhance durability, providing a reliable solution for projects needing enduring strength with minimal upkeep.

Summary: UIS’s sheet metal solutions improve efficiency with precise, pre-treated parts that fit seamlessly, minimizing assembly time and future maintenance.

Support Industrial Resilience with Heavy-Duty Fabrication

In industrial settings, where equipment endures daily strain and harsh conditions, UIS’s fabrication is built for these environments. Our engineers analyze stress tolerances, fatigue limits, and wear resistance to ensure each component withstands rigorous use without compromising safety or stability.

• Real-World Application: At JPM Chantry House, UIS constructed a mezzanine floor within a tight schedule, showcasing our ability to deliver durable components that integrate with existing structures. Load distribution analysis and fatigue testing confirmed the framework could support added weight without impacting the structure’s integrity.
• UIS’s components—whether for conveyor systems, support beams, or reinforcements—are crafted for real-world conditions, equipping projects with dependable, high-quality parts.

Summary: UIS’s industrial fabrication delivers resilient components designed to handle high-traffic, high-load environments, enhancing safety and performance in the toughest settings.

Achieve Design Impact with Architectural Metalwork Expertise

Steelwork can offer both functionality and aesthetic appeal, and UIS specializes in architectural details that elevate projects. Our experience in crafting eye-catching designs extends beyond fabrication; we balance structural needs with artistic vision. For example, installations like the brass-finished glazed balustrades at Everyman Salisbury highlight how UIS components integrate with architectural aesthetics while ensuring essential durability.

• Finishing Options: PVD finishes (for a brass effect) and powder coating in custom colors add corrosion protection and enhance visual impact.
• When designing stair balustrades or window grilles, UIS conducts thorough reviews of height regulations, spacing requirements, and anchoring techniques, merging artistry with safety.

Summary: UIS’s architectural metalwork offers expertly crafted features that enhance the aesthetic and resilience of your project, meeting both design and safety standards.
