About Our Custom Gate Welding Service in Croydon
Custom Gate Welding Croydon is founded on delivering expert, on-site gate fabrication and repairs, no matter how tricky the location. Many clients come to us after being told their gates or metalwork must be removed and taken to a workshop — but often this is costly, disruptive, or impossible.
We specialise in welding gates and security metalwork in place, including architectural features and armoured vehicle components. Our experience covers tight rear gardens, narrow side alleys, basement entries, and other challenging sites across Croydon and South London.
Typical Croydon jobs: bespoke driveway gates, security grilles, armoured vehicle welding, architectural metalwork repairs, on-site beam connections, and “can you weld this without removal?” scenarios.
What Is Mobile Gate Welding in Croydon?
Mobile gate welding means bringing professional welding equipment and expertise directly to your property so repairs or fabrication happen where the gate or metalwork is permanently fixed. This is essential when gates are welded into brickwork, heavy frames cannot be moved, or access is too difficult for removal.
Our custom gate welding service in Croydon is tailored to real-world sites — whether residential, commercial, or industrial — including architectural metalwork, security gates, and armoured vehicle welding.
- ✓ On-site welding at homes, businesses, yards & construction sites
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick welding for most steels and alloys
- ✓ Ideal for fixed, heavy or awkward-to-remove gates and metalwork
- ✓ Perfect for urgent repairs where transport isn’t possible
- ✓ Croydon-based coverage across South London and nearby areas
Awkward access is normal for us: we plan the set-up, protect nearby surfaces, manage sparks safely and work efficiently even in tight spaces.

Why Mobile Gate Welding Matters for Croydon Customers
When gates or metalwork are fixed in place, heavy, or located in tight spots, transporting them to a workshop is costly and disruptive. Mobile gate welding in Croydon simplifies this by bringing the welding expertise directly to your property, ensuring repairs and fabrication happen where the metalwork is installed.
This is crucial for awkward access jobs — such as gates welded into brickwork, security grilles on steps, armoured vehicle frames in yards, or metalwork tucked behind fences where lifting gear cannot reach.
We weld on-site so you avoid delays from removals, transport, and workshop scheduling.
By eliminating the need for heavy lifting and transport, customers save significantly on overall repair costs.
We specialise in welding in locations that are impossible or uneconomical to move from.

How Custom Gate Welding Jobs Are Carried Out Safely
Welding involves heat, sparks, and fumes, so safety is paramount — especially in confined or awkward access areas. We take extra care with shielding, ventilation, and protecting nearby surfaces before starting.
Our team uses full PPE, manages cables and equipment safely, and controls grinding dust and sparks to keep the worksite clean and hazard-free.
Custom Gate Welding Safety Checklist
- ✓ Site risk assessment before starting work
- ✓ Fire watch and suitable fire extinguisher on hand
- ✓ Protection of glass, paintwork and nearby vehicles
- ✓ Proper earthing, cables and lead management
- ✓ PPE including helmet, gloves, jacket and eye protection
