Black steel handrail beside brick garden steps

Bespoke metalwork, designed and fabricated in Kent

From custom steel gates to railings, handrails, balconies and external staircases, made in our own workshop in Fairseat, Kent. No job is too small, from a single handrail up to your front door to a full set of driveway gates.

Built, finished and made to last.

There is a big difference between metalwork made to a price and metalwork made to a specification. At GKW every piece is bespoke, designed and fabricated in our own workshop by our own team. We work in mild steel, galvanised steel and powder-coated finishes, to your brief, your dimensions and your style. Whether you need a handrail up to your front door, a single pedestrian gate, a pair of driveway gates, decorative railings, a balcony or an external staircase, no job is too big or too small.

Our steelwork is designed and built in our own workshop in Fairseat, Kent.

In-house steel fabrication

Our steelwork is designed and built in our own workshop in Fairseat, Kent. We control quality at every stage, from the first weld to the final finish.

Designed to your brief

We don't work from a catalogue. Every piece is bespoke, starting with your requirements, your dimensions and your style. We produce designs for your approval before fabrication begins.

Wide range of materials and finishes

We work in mild steel and galvanised steel, with a full range of powder-coat finishes available. If you have a specific finish in mind, talk to us.

Automation ready

If you're planning to automate your gates, now or in the future, we can design and build them with automation in mind. Automation systems change over time, so if you add it later some adjustments may be needed, and we'll advise you on what's involved.

Common questions

Do you take on small jobs?

Yes, no job is too small. Many of our customers come to us for a single handrail to make getting in and out of their home safer and easier, and we give those jobs the same care as a full set of driveway gates.

What types of metalwork do you fabricate?

We fabricate electric gates, manual gates, pedestrian gates, railings, handrails, balustrades, balcony enclosures, external staircases, and bespoke metalwork. If you have something specific in mind that is not on this list, get in touch and we will tell you whether it is something we can help with.

What materials do you work with?

We work in mild steel and galvanised steel, with a full range of powder-coat finishes. All materials are specified to suit the application and environment.

Can you match an existing style or design?

In most cases yes. If you have an existing gate, railing, or design you want to match or complement, send us photos and dimensions and we will advise on what is achievable.

How long does fabrication take?

Lead times depend on the complexity and scale of the project. We will give you a clear lead time as part of your quote. We keep you updated throughout and aim to meet every deadline we commit to.
