At South Coast Metal Fabrication (SCMF), based in Brighton, every project begins with a vision and ends with a meticulously crafted masterpiece. But what happens in between? In this blog, we take you behind the scenes of our fabrication process, showcasing the tools, techniques, and expertise that make our work stand out.

From TIG welding to powder coating, here's a glimpse into how we turn concepts into reality.


Step 1: Collaborative Concept Design 🖼️📐

Every project begins with you. During the design phase, we work closely with clients to:

  • Understand your vision: Whether it’s a bespoke sculpture or an industrial railing, your ideas are at the heart of our process.

  • Create precise 3D models: Using advanced software, we bring your concepts to life digitally. This step ensures every detail is perfect before fabrication begins.

  • Customise materials and finishes: From brushed stainless steel to weather-resistant powder coatings, we offer a variety of options to suit your needs.


Step 2: Material Selection and Preparation 🛠️⚙️

The choice of material can make or break a project. Our team carefully selects the best options for each job, considering:

  • Durability: Ensuring longevity for structures like railings or sculptures.

  • Aesthetics: Matching finishes to the desired look, from raw industrial to polished elegance.

  • Functionality: Choosing materials that align with the purpose of the piece, like lightweight aluminium for portable installations or sturdy steel for permanent fixtures.


Step 3: Precision Fabrication Techniques 🔥✨

Our Brighton workshop is where the magic happens. Key techniques include:

  • TIG Welding: Ideal for intricate, high-precision projects. This technique ensures strong, clean joins with minimal distortion.

  • CNC Cutting: For precise shapes and patterns, whether it’s a decorative panel or a structural component.

  • Rolling and Bending: Perfect for creating curves in railings, sculptures, or garden features.

Our commitment to precision ensures every project is completed to the highest standard.


Step 4: Finishing Touches 🎨🔧

Finishing is where functionality meets artistry. At SCMF, we offer:

  • Powder Coating: For a durable, weather-resistant finish available in a range of colours.

  • Brushed or Polished Finishes: Ideal for contemporary designs that need a sleek, professional look.

  • Custom Textures: From patinated steel to smooth aluminium, tailored to your vision.


Step 5: Delivery and Installation 🚚🔩

The final step is bringing your project to life on-site. Our team ensures:

  • Secure transportation: To protect your piece during delivery.

  • Expert installation: From railings to sculptures, we handle every detail to ensure perfection.

  • Customer satisfaction: We won’t rest until you’re delighted with the result.
