Practical design solutions developed with fabrication in mind.
Southern Stainless provides professional design and drafting services for commercial, architectural and industrial stainless steel projects.
With extensive fabrication experience and more than 30 years in the stainless steel industry, our team understands how good design translates into successful manufacturing. We work with clients to develop concepts, refine details and prepare accurate drawings ready for fabrication.
Based at our purpose-built facility in Ormeau, Queensland, our design and manufacturing teams work closely together, helping streamline projects from initial concept through to production.
From Concept to Fabrication.
Our design and drafting service supports projects at various stages of development. Whether you have a basic idea, existing drawings or detailed project specifications, we can help develop a practical solution ready for manufacture.
Our capabilities include:
Practical Solutions From Experienced Fabricators.
Effective drafting is about more than creating a drawing. It requires an understanding of materials, fabrication methods, tolerances, finishes and how individual components come together.
Because our design team works alongside our stainless steel fabricators, we can consider the manufacturing process from the beginning. This helps identify potential issues early, simplify production where possible and develop solutions that are practical to manufacture.
Our capabilities include a wide range of custom balustrade solutions, from individual architectural elements through to kilometres of balustrade for major commercial and infrastructure projects.
We review your project requirements, application, dimensions, materials and intended outcome. Existing drawings, sketches, photos or specifications can be provided, where available.
Our team develops or refines the design, considering functionality, fabrication requirements and the finished appearance.
Detailed drawings are prepared to clearly communicate the required dimensions, components and fabrication details.
Drawings are reviewed with the client and revisions made where required before approval.
Once approved, the project can progress directly into production through our in-house stainless steel fabrication capabilities.
One Team From Drawing to Finished Product.
Our design, drafting and fabrication capabilities are brought together at our Ormeau facility on the Gold Coast.
Keeping these processes closely connected allows our designers and fabricators to communicate throughout the project, helping maintain quality, accuracy and consistency from the initial drawing through to the finished stainless steel product.
For projects requiring additional technical modelling, we also offer dedicated 3D SOLIDWORKS modelling capabilities.
