Smart Add-Ons For Better Fencing
Custom fabrication is about creating purpose-built additions that support the function, safety or finish of your fencing or outdoor project. Whether it’s a mounting point for a gate, a custom-sized bracket or a support for uneven ground, these small extras can make a big difference.
We work with steel and aluminium to deliver straightforward, fit-for-purpose solutions that complement your site layout. It’s especially useful on rural properties, sites with sloped terrain or spaces where standard parts won’t fit cleanly. Our goal is to deliver a practical solution that integrates smoothly with your existing structure.

What is custom fabrication in fencing?
Custom fabrication in fencing refers to the design and creation of non-standard components that support or enhance a fencing project. This can include items like specially sized gate frames, custom posts, brackets for angled terrain, or structural supports for retaining walls and access points. These components are typically built when standard, pre-manufactured parts don’t suit the property’s layout or design needs. Custom fabrication is particularly useful for rural or sloped blocks, older properties with irregular dimensions, or projects where aesthetics are a priority and matching materials is essential.
Is custom fabrication expensive?
The cost of custom fabrication varies depending on the complexity, materials and time involved in creating the item. Simple components like modified brackets or frames may be relatively affordable, while more intricate designs or specialty finishes can add to the price. However, in many cases, custom fabrication can save money in the long run by ensuring a better fit and reducing the risk of ongoing issues like sagging, misalignment or instability. It’s also more efficient than trying to adapt standard parts that weren’t designed for the space. A clear quote upfront helps manage expectations and cost.
What materials are used in small-scale fabrication work?
Most custom fabrication work for fencing and property features is done using steel or aluminium, chosen for their strength, durability and outdoor performance. Aluminium is lightweight, corrosion-resistant and ideal for coastal environments like Hervey Bay. Steel is stronger and often used for load-bearing or structural pieces, though it may require galvanising or powder coating to protect against rust. The choice of material depends on the application — for example, a gate frame might use steel for strength, while a decorative panel or bracket could be built from aluminium for its finish and resistance to the elements.
