Housing developers, architects and homeowners
Structural & Architectural Metalwork
Structural metalwork is the steel a building relies on, and architectural metalwork is the steel you notice, gates, balustrades, staircases and railings. Parkview Fabrications designs, cuts and installs both, so a housing scheme gets structurally sound steel that also looks like it was drawn on purpose.
Work covers structural steel connections, load-bearing frames and support brackets for housing developments, alongside architectural pieces such as bespoke gates, balustrades, staircases and external railings finished to match a build's spec.
Drawings are worked through with the architect or site manager before anything is cut, so tolerances, fixings and finish are agreed once rather than argued about on site.
Paul draws on 35 years across light and heavy engineering to advise on material choice and manufacturing method at the design stage, not just after the steel has already been ordered.
Design and manufacturing advice is folded into this service. If you have a set of drawings and are not sure what steel or process fits, that conversation happens before any quote is written.
