Custom Metalwork & Fabrication

Metal Fabrication
Services in Derbyshire

We provide fabrication services for trade, commercial customers and the general public, producing bespoke metal components, gates, brackets, frames and custom fabrications.

Custom Metal
Fabrication

Metal fabrication involves cutting, shaping and assembling metal to create finished components, structures or custom parts. It is widely used across construction, engineering, manufacturing and automotive industries.

At RPT Engineering Ltd in Somercotes, we provide fabrication services for trade, commercial customers and the general public, producing bespoke metal components, gates, brackets, frames and custom fabrications. From individual components to small production runs, our workshop produces strong, accurate fabricated parts built to meet the demands of real-world use.

Whether you require brackets, frames, structural elements or custom assemblies, our team delivers practical fabrication solutions designed around your project requirements.

Applications Include:

  • Structural steel components
  • Brackets and mounting plates
  • Fabricated frames and supports
  • Industrial machinery parts
  • Custom steel assemblies
  • Composite, wrought iron and electric gates
  • One-off fabricated parts

Our Fabrication Process

Producing reliable fabricated metalwork requires careful planning and precise manufacturing. Our fabrication process focuses on accuracy, structural strength and consistency.

01 Planning

Planning and Specification

Each project begins with understanding the requirements of the component or structure. Customers may provide drawings, measurements or an example of the part required.

02 Cutting

Cutting and Shaping

The metal is cut and shaped to the required dimensions using appropriate fabrication techniques. This allows components to be produced accurately and consistently.

03 Assembly

Welding and Assembly

Strong, accurate welds are essential for the reliability and durability of the finished component. Once the parts are prepared, they are assembled and welded.

Fabrication Products
& Applications

Our fabrication workshop supports a variety of industries and projects. Fabricated components are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, engineering and industrial environments.

Typical fabricated items include gates and railings, structural steelwork components, industrial machinery parts, metal frames and supports, mounting brackets and mounting plates.

We can produce both individual fabricated items and small production runs depending on your requirements.

Gate Fabrication
& Installation

We specialise in the fabrication and finishing of gates, including composite and wrought iron designs. From traditional decorative patterns to modern privacy gates, our workshop builds high-quality entrance solutions tailored to your property.

Our team can also supply and install electric gates, providing a complete service from fabrication to final installation, ensuring your property is secure and accessible.

Fabrication and
Finishing Services

Many fabricated metal components require protective finishing once manufacture is complete. Finishing protects the metal from corrosion and improves durability.

At RPT Engineering Ltd, we offer shot blasting and powder coating services in-house, allowing fabricated components to be prepared and finished without leaving our facility.

Consistent Quality

Consistent quality from manufacture through to finishing.

Faster Turnaround

Reduced handling and in-house processing saves time.

Reduced Handling

Less risk of surface damage between processes.

Long-term Protection

Durable protective coatings for long-term use.
