Expert Steel Staircases & Balustrades in Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex

As Southampton's leading metal fabrication specialists, RA Steelworks delivers bespoke, high-quality steel staircases, architectural balustrades, and handrails. We provide fully certified, CE-marked solutions for residential and commercial projects across Berkshire, Surrey, and West Sussex.

Safety that doesn't compromise on style

When it's your home or business, safety isn't something you want to guess at. Most people we chat to in Hampshire are worried about building regulations, especially things like 'Part K' compliance. It's our job to take that stress off your plate. We're well-versed in the 100mm rule—that's the one that ensures a 100mm sphere can't pass through your balusters, keeping children safe. Whether we're installing newel posts, stringers, or handrails, we make sure everything is rock-solid and fully compliant with UK standards. You get peace of mind, and your building control officer stays happy. It's a win-win, isn't it?

Balustrades tailored to your taste

A balustrade is more than just a safety rail; it's a huge part of your property's look. Maybe you're after the clean, airy feel of glass balustrading for a balcony in the garden, or perhaps you want something more traditional in mild steel. We can even provide marine-grade stainless steel finishes, which is a bit of a must-have if you're worried about the damp Hampshire winters causing corrosion or 'tea-staining'. We offer RAL powder coating in just about any colour you can think of, so if you want your handrails to match your window frames or your company branding, we've got you covered.

External fire escapes built for the elements

If you're a business owner in Andover, you know that a reliable fire escape is a non-negotiable part of your premises. We specialise in fabricating external steel stairs that can handle the worst of the British weather. To keep the rust at bay, we recommend hot-dip galvanising for all our outdoor work. This process creates a tough-as-nails coating that prevents the steel from degrading, even if it's constantly exposed to the rain. We handle the whole process, from the initial site survey to the final installation of the treads and risers, ensuring your emergency egress is always ready for use.

Certified quality from local experts

Why choose us over a general builder? It comes down to the certification. RA Steelworks Services LTD is UKAS-accredited to BS EN 1090-1 and approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). In plain English, that means our workshop and our coded welders are independently audited to make sure our structural steelwork is safe and up to code. When you're standing on a staircase several metres in the air, you want to know that the person who welded the joints knew exactly what they were doing. We don't take shortcuts, and we don't expect you to either.

Why choose steel staircases for your Southampton property?

+

Steel staircases are a top choice because they are incredibly strong and last a lifetime. Unlike wood, they won't creak, warp, or rot over time. In a city like Southampton, where many buildings face the sea air, steel can be galvanised or powder-coated to stand up to the weather. They also take up less visual space, making a room feel more open and modern.

Do you create bespoke handrails and internal balustrades?

+

Yes, we specialise in architectural metalwork that fits your space perfectly. We don't just do "off-the-shelf" parts. We can design and build handrails and balustrades that match the style of your home or office. Whether you want a sleek, modern look with stainless steel or something more traditional, we make sure it is sturdy and looks the part.

Can RA Steelworks build fire escapes for commercial buildings in Hampshire?

+

We certainly can. Safety is our main priority, and we understand the strict building regulations that govern fire escapes. We fabricate external stairs that are slip-resistant and fire-safe. Because we are certified for structural steel, you can trust that the fire escape we build for your Southampton business will be safe for years to come.

What is the process for metalwork installation?

+

We try to make the installation as easy as possible for you. Once the fabrication is finished in our workshop, our team brings the components to your site. We handle all the heavy lifting and on-site welding to fix the staircase or railings in place. We work around your schedule to keep disruption to a minimum, and we always leave the site tidy when the job is done.

Are balcony railings and commercial railings custom-made?

+

Every railing we produce is made to measure. This is important because no two balconies or commercial sites are exactly the same. We visit your site in Southampton or the surrounding areas to take exact measurements. This makes sure that when we come to install your balcony railings or commercial fencing, everything fits perfectly the first time.

How do I make sure my new stairs meet building regulations?

+

When you work with RA Steelworks, we guide you through the requirements for things like step height, width, and the gaps between balustrades. These rules are there to keep people safe, particularly in public or commercial buildings. Because we are experienced in metal fabrication across Hampshire, we know what the inspectors are looking for and make sure our work hits those marks.
