Scenic Fabrication

At TH Metal Works, we specialise in scenic fabrication; creating bespoke metal structures, props and set pieces that bring imagination to life. From film studio metalwork and television productions to theatre and live events our goal is to ensure that our metal solutions not only meet technical demands but also fulfil the highest creative purposes.

 

We understand that scenic fabrication requires more than just engineering expertise. It demands innovation, flexibility and the ability to deliver unique structures that serve both as functional frameworks and striking visual elements. 

 

Our experienced TV set builders work closely with our clients to transform design concepts into durable, high-quality metalwork that supports even the most ambitious stage or screen productions.

 

What We Create

 

Our work in custom set fabrication is wide-ranging and adaptable, allowing us to contribute to productions of all scales. Some of the structures and features we produce include:

 

  • Props and set pieces - Custom-made to withstand the pressures of rehearsal and performance while enhancing the overall look and feel of a production.

  • Architectural meta structures - Such as staircases and balconies, which can be used as both practical features and dramatic stage elements.

  • Structural metalwork - Including steel plates and beams; providing safe and reliable frameworks for larger scenic builds.
     

Our scenic metalwork combines strength with creativity, ensuring that every piece looks impressive and performs flawlessly, even under demanding conditions. Whether it’s part of a large film studio metalwork project or a smaller theatre build, we ensure precision and quality every step of the way.

 

Our Process

 

We pride ourselves on offering a seamless service from concept to completion. Once you submit an enquiry to us, we’ll carefully assess the project details and any construction or CAD drawings provided. If drawings are unavailable our team has the capability to produce these in-house, ensuring accuracy from the outset.

 

When the specifications are confirmed, we source high-quality metal from trusted suppliers before beginning fabrication. Our workshop in London is fully equipped for advanced steel work London projects and our processes include:

 

  • Cutting - Precise shaping of metals to exact measurements.

  • Drilling - Preparing materials for accurate assembly.

  • Welding - Creating strong, reliable joints.

  • Bolting and fixing - Assembling structures to meet specific design and safety standards.

  • Finishing and paintwork - Where required, we provide a complete service that includes protective coatings and aesthetic finishes.
     

This thorough approach allows us to deliver custom set fabrication that is as visually impressive as it is structurally sound.

 

Materials We Work With

 

At TH Metal Works, we are versatile in the materials we use. We work with most metals, with the exception of copper and zinc and specialise in:

 

  • Heavy and mild steel - This offers strength and durability for demanding structural and scenic requirements.

  • Aluminium - Lightweight and adaptable; this is perfect for props and portable set pieces.

  • Stainless steel - This provides resilience and a sleek finish, which is why it is often used in high-end scenic structures.
     

By combining the right material with the right process, we ensure that every project achieves the perfect balance between creative vision and practical performance. Our ability to deliver reliable steel work London companies continuously praise makes us the trusted choice for both large and small productions.
