Architectural Metal

Architectural Metal

Feature metalwork where the fabrication is part of the architecture.

OVERVIEW

Architectural Metal by Eizen Steel

Architectural metalwork is judged from arm's length, so it is fabricated to a different standard than structural steel. Weld seams get dressed flat, panel edges get returned, and the fixing pattern is designed to be invisible from the approach direction.

We work directly from the architect's model where one exists. Nesting the pattern digitally keeps the perforation rhythm consistent across every panel of a facade rather than resetting at each sheet boundary — the difference between a screen that reads as one surface and one that reads as a set of tiles.

SCOPE OF WORK

What We Deliver

Mashrabiya & pattern screens

Laser and waterjet-cut geometric screens nested so the pattern runs continuously across panel joints.

Facade cladding & fins

Folded metal cladding panels, vertical fins and reveal detailing with concealed carrier systems.

Soffits & ceilings

External soffit panels and internal feature ceilings with demountable access where services sit above.

Feature & sculptural metalwork

One-off reception features, screens and sculptural elements developed from concept models.

Signage & lettering

Fabricated built-up letters, backing plates and illuminated signage in stainless, aluminium and brass.

Premium finishing

PVD coating, anodising, brushed and antique finishes applied to a controlled sample approved before production.

ANSWERS

Architectural Metal — Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fabricate bespoke facade and feature metalwork?

Yes - perforated and laser-cut screens, cladding panels, feature stairs, reception and signage metalwork. These are made from the architect's intent drawings with our own workshop details for the fixings and joints behind them.

Do you make sample panels before full production?

For visible architectural metalwork we produce a sample or mock-up panel for approval of the perforation, finish and joint line before the full batch is cut, which is far cheaper than reworking a facade.

What finishes hold up on exposed feature metalwork?

Architectural powder coating over galvanised or pre-treated steel, anodised aluminium, and mechanically finished stainless. Selection follows the exposure - shaded internal atrium work and a fully exposed south elevation are not the same job.

Architectural Metal across the United Arab Emirates

We fabricate architectural metal in our own workshop and install with our own crews, so a site in Abu Dhabi or Ras Al Khaimah gets the same survey, the same shop drawings and the same finish as a site in Dubai.
