Aluminium and Steel Fabrication

How is Aluminium Fabrication?

RWAP is a company that specializes in fabricating and installing metal products made of both aluminium and steel. Our bespoke services include the design, manufacture, and installation of products made from aluminium and steel. 

We work with a range of clients from small businesses, local government, to large corporations, and our team has the skills and experience to complete projects of any size. We are committed to providing outstanding service at competitive prices, with a focus on high-quality workmanship.
Aluminium fabrication is the process of shaping and welding aluminium sheets or tubes into various structures. The end product can be used for a variety of purposes. This versatile metal is widely used in various industries due to its lightweight nature, corrosion resistance, and excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. 

Examples for construction purposes such as aluminium fences and aluminium balustrades.

Aluminum and Steel Fabrication

Here’s a general overview of Aluminium fabrication:

-Design and Planning
-Material Selection
-Cutting: This can be done using different methods:
Shearing, Sawing, CNC Machining
-Forming: Aluminum can be shaped into various forms using processes such as:
Bending, Rolling, Stamping
-Machining: If the product requires precise holes, threads, or other features, machining processes are used:
Drilling, Milling, Turning
-Welding: Aluminum parts may need to be joined together to create larger structures or assemblies. Common welding techniques include:
TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) Welding, MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding
-Assembly: Once the individual components are fabricated, they are assembled into the final product. This may involve:
Fastening, Adhesive Bonding, Welding
-Finishing: The final step involves finishing touches to improve the appearance and durability of the product:
Grinding and Sanding, Polishing, Anodizing or Coating

How is Steel Fabricated?

Steel fabrication is the process of creating finished products, components, or structures from steel materials. Steel is a widely used metal in construction, manufacturing, and various industries due to its strength, durability, and versatility. Fabrication involves several steps to shape, cut, and assemble steel into the desired form.

The fabrication process begins by cutting the steel sheet to size. The edges are then trimmed and bevelled. The sheet is then ready for welding. First, the edges are welded together to create a seam. Then, the welds are ground down so that they are smooth and level.

Aluminium Gates Vs Steel Gates: Which is Better?

There is a right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing between aluminium gate Fabrication and steel gates. Both have their pros and cons, and it ultimately depends on the specific needs of each individual client. With thoughtful consideration, you can select the gate that best meets your requirements and provides the greatest value for your investment.

Aluminium gates are a good option if you are looking for a light, durable gate that is easy to install and can be customised to fit your specific requirements. However, aluminium is not as strong as steel and so it may not be suitable for areas that experience a lot of traffic or heavy use.

Steel gates are a good option if you are looking for a strong, durable gate that can withstand heavy use. However, steel is heavier than aluminium and so it may be more difficult to install in some areas. We use very strong and high-strength materials to produce aluminum fences.
