Design & Manufacture


As well as the design, manufacture and installation of steel fabricated products, we also provide various associated services. Most of these, punching, forming etc, make use of our excellent sheet metal work machines but we also provide various repair services.

Primarily this is the repair of aluminium and cast steel car and bike parts, but also includes specialist welding of ships hulls. Customers can give us their drawings, however when required we can produce our own.
Sometimes customers present us with an idea. We then work with them to develop the idea into a finished design that we can then manufacture. Designs generally fall into three categories:
Ingenius
These are the 'how can we make this do that?' type of problem. Typically, this includes such things as designing safety guards that don't obstruct production.
Aesthetic
These projects are invariably one-offs where the customer wants something contemporary, stylish and striking to look at. Examples we have made include the globe we built for St. David's Park and items such as a stainless-steel bed for a loft apartment.
Engineering
These are projects which might usually require architects and/or structural engineers such as large platforms or fire escapes. Typically, it might be the design of noise reduction acoustic booths.

If It’s Made from Metal

We Can Do It


We provide full service sheet metal fabrication from design, to manufacture, to assembly and installation. We have a thorough understanding of the materials, specifications and processes it takes to build quality into every part. We make every effort to be technically superior, innovative and more responsive to better meet your needs.

We continuously keep up with the latest welding technology and sheet metal fabrication processes, so we can continue to offer high quality and on time delivery at a low cost. We integrate sheet metal fabrication, welding and assembly processes to create high quality products which satisfy all customer requirements; quality, low cost and quick response time. 
We have a full range of welding capabilities including micro MIG welding, MIG welding, CO2 welding, and argon welding to name a few.

    Our fabricators and engineers have extensive technical knowledge of precision sheet metal fabrication and other production technologies, to offer a consulting sales approach for any customer requirements whether it be quality, low cost or quick response time. Our design and development skills lead our activities for creating prototypes and products, which emphasize design features and varied-type, varied-amount orders.


    As a full service company, we offer totally in-house facilities, including engineering support, sheet metal fabrication, machining, welding fabrication and metal finishing (painting, powder coating and silk-screening). We also offer full transport and installation services and provide on-site assembly for large projects.


    We are passionate about quality. Quality is not something that can be added to a product. Quality starts with product design and continues through all phases of production and installation. Quality is the number one priority of all our employees. Every job is processed with this in mind. 

    Our relentless pursuit of quality is rooted in a comprehensive quality control system to ensure we provide precision sheet metal fabrication. All our sheet metal workers are time served City & Guilds craftsmen with many years’ experience of sheet metal fabrication.


    We are a world-class stainless-steel fabricator. Our mission is to design, manufacture, and assemble high quality fabricated products to customer's specifications, with a consistent focus on knowing and exceeding their expectations. We offer customers precision sheet metal fabrication, machined parts, mechanical and welded assemblies and electro-mechanical pneumatic assembly. 


    We have grown our business by fabricating to the customer's needs. From design and manufacturing to shipping and meeting your deadlines, the goal is to complement your manufacturing process.

    We manufacture and assemble the highest quality aluminium, mild steel and stainless-steel fabricated products from both your drawings and our designs.


    For the bulk of our products, we use the following materials:

    • Mild steel
    • Stainless steel
    • Aluminium
    • Brass
    • Copper
    • Phosphorous bronze
    • Galvanised steel

Our History


A & S McKay was established in 1994 in Birkenhead and is a small family run business which has grown from just two partners to a current workforce of over twenty. This growth is due to the company's reputation for excellent service and quality design and workmanship.

Our capabilities include working with materials such as mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium and other non-ferrous metals. Aluminium castings are a speciality. All our employees are highly skilled (time-served City & Guilds) in the fabrication and welding of all the above materials with equipment on the shop floor i.e. Mig, Tig, MMA and Oxyacetylene.
We can fabricate structures up to 20 tonnes on our premises but on site there would be no limits.
