01

What the system actually includes

The frame is the structural core, not a finished building. Panels arrive for site assembly with the required frame fixings and project information. The completed performance depends on the foundation, sheathing, insulation, membranes, internal lining, external finish, roof, glazing and services being designed as one compatible build-up.

02

Where light gauge steel fits

The system suits repeatable garden-room footprints, one-off studios, larger annexes and project-specific extensions. Standard frames provide a clear starting point when their dimensions and opening arrangements work. Bespoke design is the correct route when the site, glazing, partitions, roof form or structural connections fall outside those models.

03

The Forti Nova package advantage

Forti Nova’s defining offer combines suitable ground screws, the steel frame and professional erection. Customers adding selected composite cladding, EPDM roofing and roofline can access discounted bundle pricing. Eligibility, quantities, installation responsibilities and final scope remain project-specific.

04

Who we work with

Homeowners can start from the intended room use. Garden-room companies and builders can request repeat frame and envelope packages. Architects and developers can send drawings for early review. Our most coordinated delivery is in the North West, while frame supply 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 light gauge steel frames uk.

01

Define the required outcome

Start with use, geometry, openings, loads, location and programme before choosing a standard or bespoke frame.

02

Coordinate the interfaces

Foundation levels, base connection, frame erection, roof and wall build-ups must agree before site work starts.

03

Confirm the written scope

Price and programme only mean something when supply, labour, delivery, exclusions and responsibility are explicit.

04

Keep final documents in control

The supplied project drawings and system information govern the installed frame—not indicative web content.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about light gauge steel frames uk.

Is light gauge steel the same as structural hot-rolled steel?

No. LGS framing uses thin-gauge cold-formed profiles assembled into panels. Hot-rolled beams and columns are a different structural product and may still be required where a project engineer specifies them.

Does the steel arrive as a complete finished room?

No. It arrives as a structural frame package. Forti Nova can quote selected foundation and envelope products around it, but the precise scope is confirmed in writing.

Do you manufacture the frames?

No. Forti Nova supplies specialist frame systems manufactured by third-party suppliers and combines them with Forti Nova foundation, waterproofing and external-finish capability.
