Steel Beams Windsor
For Steel Beams Windsor, talk to Ace Posts and Beams. Many Windsor homes are older cottages on compact blocks, close to the neighbours and often on streets where a truck barely turns. Extending one means steel that can get to the site and through the house without a crane. We cut and pre-drill beams and posts to your engineer's schedule, in members your crew can carry.

Made to Measure
Steel Beams Windsor, cut for the way it gets to site
Ask how the steel will get from the truck to the beam pocket and the answer often decides the design. On a narrow lot with the house hard against the boundary, a member may have to go down a side passage and through a doorway. Its weight matters as much as its length: a section two people can lift through a door is a different job from one that needs four, and your engineer can weigh that up when choosing sections.
The neighbours are close on both sides, so noise and dust count. Pre-cut, pre-drilled steel means less grinding and drilling on site, and fewer hours of it. We label each member too, so the crew can find the one they need without spreading everything across a small yard.
Why Builders Choose Us
Steel Beams Windsor for small-lot builders who can't waste a day
On a small site, a wrong or late delivery means a blocked footpath, unhappy neighbours and a crew standing around. We check the schedule with you before we cut and confirm the delivery details before the truck leaves.
Finishes to Suit the Job
Finishes run from raw steel through prime painted to hot-dipped galvanised, with pre-drilling on any of them. Primed suits steel that will be enclosed in a wall or ceiling. Galvanised suits posts, bearers and anything outside. Choose per member, not for the whole job.
Fast 3-Day Supply
Usually three days from order. When the street allows only one delivery window, you'll want everything on it, so send the full schedule up front.
Made-to-Measure
Cut and drilled to the drawings, so there's little need for a saw or grinder beside the neighbour's fence. Long members can be supplied in sections where your engineer details it.
Expert Advice
We'll help you describe the site access so the right truck is sent. Design, sizing and connections stay with your engineer.
Keen Local Pricing
Trade pricing on small orders too. A single lintel or a handful of posts gets the same free quote as a bigger job.
What We Supply
Steel Beams Windsor for cottage extensions and renovations
For older Windsor cottages, rear extensions and small-lot rebuilds, our stock lines and options span:
- PFC (parallel flange channel)
- Universal beams (UB)
- Raw steel
- Prime painted
- Hot-dipped galvanised
- Pre-drilled
- Stock sizes
- Made-to-measure
Small-lot orders tend to be short and precise: a lintel or two, several posts, a bearer run. Rolled hollow section columns are handy where you want a slim post at the edge of a narrow site. Hole drilling and plates can be added to the same order so the whole job arrives together.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does your team supply in Windsor?
Mostly steel for extending and renovating small older houses: lintels and beams where walls come out, bearers and posts under rear additions, and columns for carports and decks. We supply stock sizes and made-to-measure lengths.
Can you provide made-to-measure steel beams?
Yes. Send the engineer's schedule and the tightest point on the delivery route, such as a side gate, hallway or stair. We'll cut to the schedule, and if a member is detailed in sections we drill both parts to match.
What types of steel beams do you stock?
Parallel flange channels and universal beams in residential sizes, plus steel and rolled hollow section columns. If it isn't a stock size, we cut it to order.
What finishes or preparation options are available?
Finishes are raw, primed or hot-dipped galvanised, with pre-drilling on request. Steel inside a wall is protected by the lining, so primed is fine there. Exposed carport posts and rear-deck bearers are better galvanised.
How quickly can I get my steel beams after ordering?
Typically about three days, and galvanising takes longer. If your builder has a single delivery window, give us the day and time and we'll work to it.
Do you offer delivery as well as pickup?
Both. On a narrow street, tell us about kerbside parking, overhead wires and the width of the side access, so we send a truck that fits. Small orders can be collected at Eagle Farm if that's easier.

About Windsor
Windsor is one of Brisbane's older inner-north suburbs, with a station on the Shorncliffe line and the old Windsor Town Hall on its main road. Its streets are lined with workers' cottages and timber houses on small blocks, close together. Rather than move, many owners extend, which is why steel here tends to be small, precise and hand-carried.
