Made to your drawing
Panel sizes, hook details, bar pitch and surface treatment are set against your drawing rather than against a stock list.
Welded, press locked and fabricated under one roof
Pressure welding, press locking, stamping, laser cutting, framing and surface treatment all happen in the same workshop.
The panel and its handrail arrive together
Because the deck, the frame and the ball joint handrail are made on the same site, they arrive in the same finish and on the same truck.
Coating chosen for the environment
Hot-dip galvanizing, electroplated galvanizing, painting and acid passivation are all produced here, so the coating is chosen against where the panel will live rather than against the invoice.
Product Range
Six families of steel grating from one Yantai workshop, published with the bar section rather than with adjectives.
Heel guard grating
Narrow-slot grating for places where people walk in heels, wheels or walking aids, with the slot closed down so nothing drops through.
Concrete cover grating
Hook-type steel covers that sit in a concrete kerb or pit and lift out for cleaning, made to the opening rather than to a stock size.
Welded steel grating
The standard load-bearing panel, pressure welded on an automatic line, with flat or twisted cross bars to suit the application.
Press locked grating
Grating assembled under pressure instead of welded, for a flush surface and a sharp square mesh with no weld marks.
Ditch steel grating
Long, narrow panels built to cover a drainage ditch run, in galvanized carbon steel or passivated stainless.
Stanchion and ball joint handrail
Ball joint stanchions and handrail made alongside the deck grating, with base plates drilled to your layout and the same finish as the panels.
Surface treatment
Hot-dip galvanizing, electroplated galvanizing, painting and acid passivation, all produced in the same workshop as the steelwork.
The Numbers Behind the Factory
Industries We Supply
Five kinds of buyer with five different failure modes. The panels are the same; what changes is where the grating fails if it is specified carelessly.
Contractors and fabricators
Buyers working to a measured opening and a handover date, where a panel that does not fit is a programme problem.
Drainage and civil works
Trench runs, chambers and channels, where the panel has to sit flush, stay put under vehicles and still lift out for cleaning.
Food and hygienic facilities
Floors that are washed down daily, where the grating has to be stainless, liftable and free of places that hold residue.
Industrial platforms and plant
Access platforms, walkways and stairs, where the deck, the frame and the handrail all have to arrive together and match.
Knowledge Centre
Guides for people who specify steel grating, written around where panels actually fail rather than around what a catalogue says.
Reading a bar section
A designation like 30x2.5 describes the bearing bar, and it tells you more about the panel than any adjective can.
Choosing a coating for steel grating
The coating decides how many winters a panel survives, and it should be chosen against the environment rather than the budget.
Heel guard slot widths
Standard grating slots are sized for drainage, and they happen to be exactly the size of the things people walk on them with.
Welded or press locked
Two ways to join the same bars, with different surfaces, different appearance and different behaviour in stainless.
Why grating fails at the edges
The mesh is rarely the problem. The frame, the seating and the hook take the impact, and they are what gets specified carelessly.
Specifying a hook detail
A cover has to stay put under traffic and lift out by hand, and the hook is the only part that reconciles those two.
How an Order Runs
Send the measured opening
The opening, the load and the environment. Those three decide the bar section, the panel layout and the coating.
We answer with a section, not an adjective
Bar section, pitch, panel sizes and hook detail, stated as numbers you can check against your own drawing.
Coating chosen for the location
Hot-dip galvanizing, electroplated galvanizing, painting and acid passivation are all produced here, so the recommendation is not constrained by what we can outsource.
Marked, numbered and loaded together
On a long run the panels are numbered for laying order, and the deck, frame and handrail leave on the same truck.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take small orders?
Yes, and the export company was set up in 2023 specifically for that. Small batch and customised production is the business rather than the exception, which is why panel sizes, hook details, bar pitch and surface treatment are set against your drawing rather than against a stock list.
Which coating should I specify?
Hot-dip galvanizing for anything outdoors, electroplated galvanizing for indoor work and fine sections, acid passivation for stainless, and painting where appearance governs and a maintenance cycle is accepted. The coating decides how many winters a panel survives, so tell us the environment rather than the budget.
Can you supply the handrail with the grating?
Yes, and we would recommend it. Ball joint stanchions and handrail are made in the same workshop, so the base plates are drilled to your layout, the finish matches the deck, and the whole package arrives on one truck. Sourcing them separately produces three finishes and three delivery dates.
Why does grating fail at the edges?
Because that is where the load is applied as an impact rather than as a distributed weight. Every wheel crossing the joint hits the frame, the seating and the hook, while the bearing bars in the middle of the panel are almost always strong enough. Specifying the bar section carefully and the edge detail carelessly is the most common mistake in this trade.
Tell us what the opening is
Send the measured opening, the load it has to take and where it will live. We reply with a bar section, a panel layout and a coating recommendation rather than a catalogue page.
