Contractors and fabricators
Buyers working to a measured opening and a handover date, where a panel that does not fit is a programme problem.
A contractor does not order grating; they order a fit. The opening has been measured, the concrete has been poured, and a panel that is 20 mm out has to be cut on site with an angle grinder, which leaves a raw edge in a galvanized panel and a rust line within a year.
Small batch and customised production is the business here rather than the exception, which is what makes it possible to answer the drawing rather than the stock list. Panel size, hook detail, bar pitch and surface treatment are all set against what you measured.
Typical Applications
- Panels made to the measured opening
- Small batch treated as normal work
- Finished edges instead of site cutting

Drainage and civil works
Trench runs, chambers and channels, where the panel has to sit flush, stay put under vehicles and still lift out for cleaning.
Food and hygienic facilities
Floors that are washed down daily, where the grating has to be stainless, liftable and free of places that hold residue.
Industrial platforms and plant
Access platforms, walkways and stairs, where the deck, the frame and the handrail all have to arrive together and match.
