Aluminum Grating
Lightweight, corrosion-resistant grating for platforms, walkways, and architecture.

Product Overview
Aluminum grating is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant panel used for industrial platforms, walkways, and architectural applications. Its low weight reduces structural load and simplifies handling and installation.
Choose aluminum grating when you need a durable, low-maintenance surface that performs well outdoors and in marine or humid environments without the weight of steel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is aluminum grating suitable for heavy vehicle traffic?
Aluminum grating is ideal for pedestrian platforms, walkways, and light-to-medium loads. For heavy-duty or vehicle traffic, steel grating is usually the better choice. Share your load requirements and we will recommend the right material.
Can I get custom panel sizes?
Yes. Panel length, width, bearing bar size, and bar spacing are confirmed against your drawings, including cutouts and edge banding.
What surface finish should I choose?
Mill finish suits most general uses. Anodizing adds surface hardness and color options; powder coating provides a specific architectural color. We can advise based on your environment.
