Safety is paramount in everything we do. All our steel portal frames are designed and built in full compliance with UK building regulations, including BS 5950 and Eurocode 3 standards for structural steelwork.

Our steel portal frames are designed for long-term durability, providing reliable performance for decades. With proper treatment, such as galvanising or powder coating, our steel frames resist corrosion and can withstand harsh weather conditions, ensuring minimal maintenance requirements. This makes them an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor applications.
