Two ways to get your access package: design-only documentation, or full supply — designed, fabricated in China, hot-dip galvanised, and delivered door-to-door from 45 days.
Get a QuoteYou need approval drawings and fabrication drawings to AS 1657 for your tender or your own fabricator.
You need the complete package, and budget matters more than speed. We design, fabricate in China, hot-dip galvanise to AS/NZS 4680, and deliver door-to-door.
*Compact package, material in stock, immediate vessel loading. Larger projects: allow 55–60 days. Transit times may extend due to adverse weather conditions at sea or carrier schedule changes. Exact delivery window confirmed in writing on your order.
We know imported fabrication has a poor reputation in Australia. The problem is rarely the country — it's the absence of control: no heat number traceability, no weld maps, no independent coating inspection. Our process is built around documentation.
If your certifying engineer asks a question — we have the answer.
The specific dimensional and loading requirements are contained in AS 1657:2018 and are applied by our designers who hold licensed access to it.
To keep your project compliant and your lead times predictable, we recommend sourcing the following standard components from Australian suppliers. This ensures they meet AS 1657 and are available without import delays. We design the structure to interface perfectly with these components, and supply the fabricated steelwork — platforms, stringers, bracing, and connection details — ready for assembly.
| Component | Recommended Australian Supplier | Website |
|---|---|---|
| Grating & Stair Treads | Webforge / Locker Group | locker.com.au |
| Grating & Stair Treads (alt) | Weldlok (Nepean) | weldlok.com.au |
| Monowills Ball Joint Stanchions | Meshstore | meshstore.com.au |
| Monowills / Webforge Direct | Webforge | webforge.com.au |
These suppliers stock AS 1657 compliant components. We do not supply these items; our scope is the design and fabrication of the structural steelwork that connects them. This division keeps your compliance documentation clean and your project on schedule.
