Fabrication FAQs — Pune

A standard MS main gate costs ₹350–₹550 per sq. ft. in Pune, depending on design, steel gauge, and finish. A simple single gate for a row house starts around ₹15,000–₹25,000; designer double gates with laser-cut panels cost more. We provide free site measurement and a written quotation with material specs before work begins.

Safety doors range from ₹8,000 to ₹25,000 depending on size, steel thickness, grill design, and coating. A standard flat safety door starts at ₹8,000–₹12,000; heavy-duty designer doors with SS mesh cost more. Free measurement in Wagholi, Kharadi, Viman Nagar & nearby areas.

MS railing: ₹250–₹450 per running foot. SS 304 railing: ₹550–₹950 per running foot. Glass railing with SS fittings costs more. Final rate depends on height, pipe thickness, design, and site conditions.

Manual rolling shutters: ₹300–₹450 per sq. ft. installed. Motorized shutters: ₹550–₹800 per sq. ft. A typical 10×10 ft shop shutter starts around ₹30,000–₹45,000. We install for shops and garages across East Pune.

MS window grills cost ₹180–₹320 per sq. ft. A standard 4×4 ft grill costs around ₹3,000–₹5,000 installed. Designer and SS grills cost more. We match your building's existing grill design.

Invisible/SS grills: ₹150–₹350 per sq. ft. Traditional MS balcony grills: ₹180–₹320 per sq. ft. Steel grills add security and last decades; invisible grills preserve the view — popular in high-rise societies for child safety. We advise based on your society rules.

MS (mild steel) is stronger, cheaper, and easier to shape — best for main gates when properly primed and painted. SS (stainless steel) is rust-resistant and low-maintenance but costs 2–3x more — best for railings and balcony grills. For most Pune homes, an MS gate with anti-rust primer and powder coating lasts 15+ years.

Quality safety doors use 16–18 gauge MS sheet; gate frames use 1.5–2mm thick square pipes (25×25mm to 50×50mm). Cheaper 20–22 gauge material bends easily and rusts faster. Always confirm gauge/thickness in your written quotation — we mention material specs in every quote.

Powder coating lasts 8–10 years vs 3–4 years for enamel paint, gives a uniform factory finish, and resists scratches and rust better. It costs about 20–30% more. For gates and railings exposed to sun and rain, powder coating is worth it.

Three steps: (1) red-oxide or zinc-chromate primer before painting, (2) two coats of good enamel paint or powder coating, (3) repaint every 3–4 years, ideally before monsoon. Check hinges and bottom edges yearly — touch up exposed metal immediately.
