Light gauge steel frame supply for architects and developers

Technical and commercial support for architects, designers and developers specifying light gauge steel rooms, annexes and extensions.

Forti Nova bundle: suitable ground screws + steel frame + professional erection, with discounted cladding, EPDM roofing and roofline options.
In short

Early structural input reduces redesign. Share the use, site, plans, openings, roof intent, performance targets and programme before details are frozen. Forti Nova can coordinate the frame supply route and selected foundation and envelope systems without claiming the role of appointed designer.

Drawing reviewBespoke coordinationPackage scopingNationwide supply
01

Information exchange

Plans, sections, elevations, opening schedules, levels and intended build-ups create a better enquiry than floor area alone. Flag unusual loads, transport constraints and phased delivery.

02

Clear design responsibility

Project architects, engineers and principal designers retain their appointed duties. Supplied frame and product information should be incorporated into the wider design and approval process.

03

Value engineering without dilution

A standard frame can be valuable when it serves the design. Where it does not, forcing geometry to save an apparent upfront cost can transfer expense into glazing, fit-out and site alteration.

04

Regional delivery strength

Forti Nova's Blackburn base and ground screw teams strengthen North West project support. Frame and selected material packages can be planned nationally.

Before we quote

Details that affect the frame and price.

These checks help define the correct frame, site work and materials for architects and developers.

01

Standardise what repeats

Freeze proven footprints, openings and package schedules so repeat orders become faster and easier to check.

02

Control drawing revisions

The current approved frame information must govern manufacture, delivery and erection.

03

Define commercial boundaries

Separate frame, foundations, erection, delivery, exterior materials and installation responsibilities line by line.

04

Plan the call-off

Lead time, site readiness, access, storage and sequencing matter across single or multiple plots.

Project information

What to send with your enquiry.

Send drawings or repeat-model information, forecast quantities, delivery postcodes, programme, preferred call-off route and the exact package elements you want Forti Nova to coordinate.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about architects and developers.

Can you review early concept drawings?

Yes. Early review can identify missing information and whether standard or bespoke framing is realistic.

Do you provide structural calculations?

The exact engineering and documentation supplied with the frame are confirmed per project. Wider building design remains with the appointed team.

Can packages be scheduled across multiple plots?

Discuss the repeat design, programme, call-off and delivery requirements so the commercial route can be assessed.
