Metal fabrication projects in Chandigarh, Mohali and Panchkula
FabWise handles metal fabrication projects in the tricity: factory sliding gates, mezzanine floors for units and stores, spiral stairs, grills and safety doors. You send the requirement on WhatsApp, the scope and visit terms are agreed, and the written quote covers fabrication, finish and installation.
The tricity's metal fabrication demand comes from its industrial belts: Chandigarh's Industrial Area Phase I and II, Mohali's industrial phases, Panchkula's Industrial Area and the Derabassi and Lalru corridor towards Ambala. Units there need wide gates that survive truck traffic, mezzanine floors to add storage without a new building, and grills and safety doors that keep stock secure. FabWise, a managed fabrication team from Gurugram and Noida, takes on these as projects rather than one-off welding visits.
Which metal works suit tricity factories and businesses?
| Work | Typical tricity use | Key decision |
|---|---|---|
| MS main gate | Factory and kothi entrances with swing space | Leaf size, hinge type and post foundation |
| MS sliding gate | Industrial plots with trucks and little swing room | Track or cantilever, and whether to motorise later |
| MS window grill | Ground-floor units, stores and offices | Bar spacing, fixing into the frame and a fire exit |
| MS safety door | Store rooms, cash rooms, residential entrances | Frame strength and lock type |
| MS spiral staircase | Roof access in SCOs and units with no room for a straight flight | Diameter, headroom and landing |
| MS mezzanine floor | Extra storage or office space inside a high-roofed unit | Load, column positions and decking |
Mezzanine floors: the tricity's most useful metal project
Many tricity industrial sheds and SCO ground floors have generous height but limited plot area. A steel mezzanine turns that height into usable floor space for storage, a dispatch office or a packing area. The questions that matter are the load it must carry (racked stock is very different from desks), where columns can land without blocking forklifts or aisles, and how people and goods will reach it. These are settled on site before any steel is ordered.
How a tricity metal project runs with FabWise
- Send photos of the opening or space, rough sizes and what the work must do (load, traffic, security) on WhatsApp.
- We confirm the scope and the finish: primer and paint, or powder coating.
- A visit is scheduled and its terms agreed in advance; for mezzanines it includes measuring heights, columns and floor condition.
- You receive one written, all-inclusive quote for the agreed scope.
- Fabrication and finishing are done before transport, so site work is assembly and fixing.
- The installation team fits, levels and tests gates and checks mezzanine connections before handover.
What decides the cost of metal fabrication here?
- Steel weight. Section sizes and sheet thickness drive most of the cost, and loads set them.
- Design. Plain frames are quicker than CNC jaali panels or ornamental work.
- Finish. Powder coating or hot-dip galvanising protects longer than paint, at a higher first cost.
- Hardware. Rollers, tracks, heavy hinges and locks for gates and safety doors.
- Site conditions. Foundations for gate posts, working height and how steel gets into the unit.
Why one team, start to finish, for out-of-town steelwork
Steelwork goes wrong at the joins between parties: a gate made to a size someone else measured, or a mezzanine whose columns land where a contractor did not expect. FabWise's single team measures, fabricates, finishes and installs, so tolerances, loads and finish are one party's responsibility, and a factory manager has one contact for the whole job.

Common questions
Do you build mezzanine floors in Mohali and Derabassi industrial areas?
Yes, as projects. Send the unit's dimensions, height and what the mezzanine will hold on WhatsApp. We confirm scope and visit terms, measure on site and send a written quote covering fabrication, finish and installation.
What is the minimum job size for metal work in Chandigarh?
Ask on WhatsApp and describe it. Outside Delhi NCR the focus is larger jobs, such as a factory gate with grills, a mezzanine, or several items together, because the team travels. A single small grill is unlikely to be practical on its own.
Factory ke liye sliding gate better hai ya swing gate?
For most factories with truck traffic and limited space inside the gate, a sliding gate is more practical because it needs no swing room. Swing gates suit plots with space and lighter use. Our guide on sliding gate automation helps if you may add a motor.
How do you stop MS gates rusting in the tricity monsoon?
Good surface preparation and a proper finish. Primer with quality paint works, while powder coating or galvanising lasts longer. Our MS gate rust protection guide explains the options; the finish is written into your quote.
Can a mezzanine be removed if we shift premises?
A bolted steel mezzanine can often be dismantled and refitted elsewhere, depending on how it was designed and fixed. If relocation is likely, tell us at the scope stage so connections are planned for it.
