November 2013

The thermal vests are out yet again and with the threat of colder weather to come we are practising our star jumps and feet stamping in order to keep warm-no heating on until the snow is at least three inches thick!!

We have just completed a very smart set of bifold driveway gates.Finished black gloss paint.

The above will fold back to allow a car access to the driveway.

We have also undertaken some gate repairs as a vehicle struck and collasped the brick pier and knocked the gate down.This will be refixed by the builder soon.

Christmas is fast approaching but we have plenty to complete before then.

Until the December news...............................

September 2013

Hello to all our Blogspot followers-Autumn is slowly creeping up on us but not yet time for the thermal vests!This month has been a busy time and we have undertaken a variety of Metalworking projects.Below is a picture of our latest security door.This door will replace an old wooden one which protects a side alleyway.The rolling raptor spikes will be fitted above the door to stop climbers.

We are also starting to manufacture new gates for our local church which will be really smart when finished.The pictures of these will be published in October's blog.We are using different spearheads on this project which are in keeping with the church.Also the church name will be on the gates and will stand out for passers by.Look forward to showing the photos off soon.
