Based in Chailey, Lewes, Forge The Way Ltd is a leading name for bespoke metal works throughout the areas we cover, including Burgess Hill, Maidstone and the surrounding areas. Our team has more than 70 years of experience in the field, honing our skills in the design and manufacture of automated gates, bespoke metal gates, steel-framed gates (composite gates) and a range of security gates. With professional steel fabricators dedicated to both their craft and client satisfaction, we’re the company to call for all your steelworks.
We see it everywhere; from the kitchen sink to skyscrapers and even our own custom metal gates and architectural steelwork, stainless steel is a worldwide necessity for domestic, commercial and industrial projects.
But what makes it so popular with our customers in Burgess Hill and beyond? Some of the reasons include:
The material is highly regarded for its durability and toughness, guaranteeing it won’t lose shape or buckle if impacted. At extreme temperatures, it shows an impressive resilience, which allows our steel fabricators to easily manipulate it into alternative shapes - perfect for bespoke metal gates of various forms, such as gated security systems and bifold gates.
You may not think of this benefit straight away, but there is a reason it’s used in industrial kitchens, laboratories and hospitals. It’s extremely easy to clean and keep sanitised as bacteria can’t thrive on it. With smooth surfaces, dirt can’t become ingrained in the material either.
Even at higher temperatures, stainless steel will retain its shape because of its resistance to oxidation and the strength of the chromium core. The resilience this metal shows is highly regarded where fire prevention is key, making it a vital component in many industries.
Stainless steel – in its original state – is 100% recyclable, with the majority of components already recycled themselves. It can be used over and over so, when you’re planning to replace older steel gates with new ones created by us at Forge The Way, we’ll take your original gates back for recycling.
The original ‘rustless steel’, it’s available in a range of grades, but we insist on using only top-quality materials for the bespoke metal gates, steel-framed gates, automated gates and security gates we manufacture for our Burgess Hill clients. It won’t be affected by sea air, acids, or industrial solutions.
Once referred to as ‘unstainable’, stainless steel was finally named by a Sheffield cutlery manufacturer. Regardless of what creation it’s part of, there is something naturally beautiful about this smooth and modern material. From interior design to industrial art, it’s a stunning product to work with.
You can see why our steel fabricators love it so much, and why it’s part of our daily lives at Forge The Way. From patio furniture to steel-framed gates, automated gates and security gates, stainless steel makes our products stand out as statement pieces.
