Small Batch And Replacement Panels
Eleven panels for one project, or one panel to replace a cover a forklift destroyed, without a container minimum.
Small batch and customized production is written into what this company says it is good at, and it is the reason the export subsidiary exists at all. For a buyer that means two practical things: a project quantity is a normal order rather than a favour, and a single replacement panel can be matched to something installed years ago from photographs and a tape measure.
Small Batch And Replacement Panels In 6 Steps
Send What You Have
Most replacement enquiries start with a broken panel, not a drawing.
Photographs with a tape measure in shot, the opening dimensions and what crosses it are enough to start. A drawing is better but is not required.
Identify The Structure
Welded, press locked and hook cover panels are not interchangeable.
The structure is identified from the photographs, which is what decides whether a replacement will sit in the existing frame and match the run beside it.
Confirm Bar Section And Pitch
A replacement with the wrong pitch is visible from across the yard.
Bearing bar depth, thickness and pitch are measured off the old panel so the new one matches the ones it sits between.
Match The Finish
A new bright panel in a weathered run looks like a patch.
Hot-dip galvanizing is matched as a process; the colour difference of a new coat is expected and weathers in.
Produce And Check In Frame
A replacement that does not drop in has wasted the whole exercise.
The panel is offered into its own frame or checked against the supplied dimensions before it is coated and packed.
Pack For The Quantity
One panel and one hundred panels are not packed the same way.
Small orders are crated or banded to survive being handled as loose freight rather than as a full pallet stack.
