Aluminium fabrication — light, clean, corrosion-resistant

Aluminium is the go-to material when weight matters and corrosion resistance is required. We fabricate aluminium frames, panels, enclosures and custom components for marine, commercial, architectural and equipment applications. TIG welding, precision bending and clean finishing give you aluminium work that's light, strong and built to last.

Aluminium behaves differently to steel. It's softer, it expands more when heated, and it needs different welding technique and filler material. TIG welding aluminium requires clean material, the right filler alloy, and good heat control. We know these differences and adjust our process accordingly — the result is clean, strong aluminium welds that don't crack or distort.

What we make in aluminium

Frames & Structures

Lightweight aluminium frames for equipment, marine fit-out and commercial structures.

Panels & Enclosures

Aluminium panels, equipment enclosures, control box housings and covers.

Marine Components

Boat components, marine-grade aluminium brackets, frames and fittings.

Custom Profiles

Custom folded aluminium sections, trims, channels and extruded modifications.

When to use aluminium

  • Lightweight: Aluminium weighs about a third of steel, critical for mobile equipment and marine applications.
  • Corrosion-resistant: Natural oxide layer means aluminium holds up well outdoors without painting.
  • Formable: Aluminium bends cleanly on the press brake and cuts well on the laser.
  • Weldable: TIG welding gives strong, clean joints with the right filler alloy.

Aluminium fabrication process

We cut aluminium sheet and plate on the fibre laser, bend on the CNC press brake, and TIG weld with the appropriate filler (typically 5356 or 4043 alloy). We clean material before welding, control heat input to avoid distortion, and dress welds smooth where appearance matters. Finished components can be left natural, brushed, or sent for powder coating or anodising through our trade partners.

Aluminium alloys: 5052 for marine and sheet work, 6061 for structural and machined components. We TIG weld with the correct filler alloy for the job.

Common aluminium projects

We fabricate aluminium components for a range of applications. Equipment enclosures and control boxes for industrial machinery, lightweight frames for mobile and trailer-mounted equipment, marine-grade brackets and fittings for boat builders, and commercial fit-out components like trims, panels and custom extrusions. Each project has its own requirements, but the process is the same: cut, bend, weld, finish.

Tolerances and quality

Aluminium is softer than steel, so it scratches and dents more easily. We handle it carefully on the workshop floor, keep it separated from steel to avoid contamination, and protect finished parts before delivery. For parts that need tight tolerances, we run first-off samples and measure against the drawing before we run the batch.

Lead times

Standard aluminium fabrication jobs typically take 1-2 weeks from approved drawing to delivery. Repeat production batches are faster because the programs are already set up. If you need a rush job, call us and we'll do our best to fit you in — we'd rather tell you we can't do it than promise a date we can't meet.
