Off-the-shelf brackets are made for shelves. Industrial brackets have to clear a pipe run, line up with a machine's existing tapped holes, or carry a motor, sensor or panel in exactly the right place. We make brackets to your drawing so they fit first time.
We cut the blanks on our CNC plasma table, drill or tap the holes, fold the plate where the design calls for a bent bracket, and MIG or TIG weld fabricated brackets that need gussets, multiple plates or a welded tab.
Bracket types we make
L-shaped and angle brackets; U-brackets and channel-style clamps; Z-brackets for offsets; gusseted brackets for stiffer corners; clevis and pivot brackets; sensor and instrument brackets; and multi-part welded brackets for equipment mounting and machinery frames.
Folded brackets suit thinner plate and repeat batches. Welded brackets suit thicker plate, deeper sections and anything with a gusset. If you're not sure which suits your design, send the drawing and we'll tell you what we'd recommend and why.
Load and safety-critical brackets
We manufacture to your drawing and specification. Load ratings depend on design, material, welds and fixings, so for brackets that support people, overhead loads or safety-critical equipment, the design should be signed off by a competent engineer.

How to order
Send your drawing (DXF, DWG or PDF) or a dimensioned sketch with the material, thickness and quantity. We'll check it, ask about anything unclear, and reply with a price and lead time. Once approved, parts are made in our Knowsley workshop for collection or UK delivery.
Questions we're often asked
Can you work from a photo of an old bracket?
Yes, if you add the key measurements. We'll draw it up and send it back for approval before cutting.
Do you make brackets in batches?
Yes. We keep the cutting program on file so repeat orders match the first batch.
