Services
Sentry Boxes
Our sentry boxes are compact, steel-constructed portable buildings designed for security or small workspace needs. Featuring insulation, secure locking systems, and customisable electrical fittings, they provide durable, weatherproof solutions. Ideal for construction sites or remote locations requiring secure, easily transportable structures.
Gatehouses
Spacious gatehouses serve as portable offices or security hubs with full insulation, heating, and customisable layouts. Constructed from high-grade steel, they include safety features like RCD protection and multi-point locks. Suitable for long-term site management or temporary administrative spaces.
Smoking Shelters
Robust smoking shelters feature anti-vandal steel construction, non-slip flooring, and secure cigarette bins. Designed for high-traffic areas, they withstand harsh weather while providing enclosed spaces for smokers. Lifting eyes enable easy repositioning across industrial or commercial sites.
Staircases
We manufacture single-flight, multi-storey, and internal staircases with handrails and anti-slip finishes. Available in galvanised or painted options, our stair systems ensure safe access between building levels. Bespoke designs accommodate unique architectural requirements for residential or commercial use.
GRP Products
GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) flooring and nosings provide durable, slip-resistant surfaces for steps and platforms. Available in multiple colours and profiles, these weatherproof solutions enhance safety in high-traffic areas. Supplied separately or integrated into custom-built structures.
