Providing complete sheet metal fabrication solutions
At HSM, we’ve been providing sheet metal fabrication services for over 85 years, and as the years have passed, our expertise has grown. We specialise in all areas of metal fabrication, from design & planning to sheet metal fabrication, finishing and surface coating.
We strive for excellence in all we do, from the precision we apply to each component we make, to the exceptional finish displayed on every item that leaves our workshop.
Whilst we’ll happily undertake any element of the sheet metal fabrication process on your behalf, we specialise in providing a complete, all-in-one service to take your project smoothly from conception to completion.
In reality this means that we’ll take the burden of the project from you, freeing you up to get on with your day job. We’ll collaborate with you every step of the way, starting with a detailed briefing session at the start of the project, followed by regular contact to get your input and feedback and gain approval. The result will be an exceptional project delivered on time and within budget, with minimal hassle for you.
All-in-one-service - what’s the process?
We provide a range of services from design & planning through to sheet metal fabrication, finishing and surface coating. We also work with a network of trusted suppliers, so if there are any elements we cannot undertake in-house, we’ll call upon one of our reliable and experienced subcontractors to fulfil the need, all managed by us.
Whether you come to us with just an idea, detailed drawings of what you want, or a product that has already been created, we’ll quickly get your project underway. For new products, the first step is to conduct a detailed briefing session with you to ascertain your exact requirements, allowing us to map out a plan of action, including which of our services you require. From there, we’ll provide a competitive quote for your consideration.
Upon approval of the quote and instruction to proceed, we’ll commence. If starting at the design stage, our team of experts will utilise the latest technologies to bring unparalleled accuracy and detail to your project. They’ll bring your visions to life with precision, innovation and a touch of brilliance.
Once you’ve approved the design and materials to be used, the fabrication begins. You’ll witness unparalleled precision and a commitment to quality that puts us at the forefront of the industry. Our operatives are highly skilled and ensure that each and every component is perfectly created before moving on to the next stage. This is where the finishing and coating begins; our team will smooth, polish and coat your items to ensure an end result you’ll be proud of.
Once the work is complete, your products will pass through our control room, where our eagle-eyed team members will inspect each and every item to ensure no imperfections are present. Nothing will pass through our doors without the HSM seal of approval!
