Overview:
Hamilton Engineering specialises in custom, one-off metal fabrication projects ranging from precision industrial components to unique sculptural installations. Each job is approached as a standalone challenge, drawing on decades of experience, multi-metal expertise, and a flexible, solutions-driven mindset. Whether crafting intricate brackets, shaping 4-metre stainless steel tanks, or supporting creative prototypes, Hamilton delivers dependable, high-quality results tailored to exacting specifications.
Common Client Requests:
• Large stainless steel cleaning tanks for industrial clients (up to 5m square)
• Custom one-off brackets or assemblies for engineering projects
• Support structures and cladding for public art installations
• Sculptural forms scaled from artist sketches or models
• Prototype or low-volume production of specialist enclosures and metal products
Typical Challenges Faced by Clients:
• Need for bespoke, non-standard metalwork solutions
• Lack of in-house fabrication expertise or equipment
• Limited knowledge of suitable materials or finishes
• Tightly defined budgets or deadlines
• Projects that require interpretation from sketches or conceptual drawings
Bespoke ManufacturingOur Work:
Hamilton Engineering operates as an extension of its clients’ teams—interpreting, advising, and delivering on fabrication needs that often defy standard manufacturing methods. For example, Bosch Germany regularly commissions custom stainless steel tanks for industrial cleaning systems. Artists bring sketches or small-scale models, which Hamilton helps scale, fabricate, and install—turning abstract ideas into engineered structures. All fabrication is done in-house, with specialist processes like galvanising, powder coating, and wet spraying subcontracted to trusted local partners.
Project Types Included:
• Industrial cleaning tanks (for Bosch and others)
• Artistic support structures and bespoke sculptures
• Custom railings, platforms, and access components
• Precision brackets and low-volume manufactured parts
• Unusual assemblies requiring a mix of welding, bending, and finishing
Impact:
Hamilton Engineering’s bespoke manufacturing service bridges the gap between concept and creation. Their ability to interpret limited or evolving briefs—combined with fast quote turnaround and robust project delivery—has made them the go-to for clients requiring something truly unique. By combining traditional skills with modern techniques, the team ensures one-off projects are completed with accuracy, reliability, and craftsmanship, no matter how unconventional the requirement.
