Why steel framing

Why choose steel framing in Victoria

Melbourne’s growth corridors in the west, north and south-east are full of new homes and townhouses on compact lots, where accurate prefabricated frames speed up the build. Steel does not shrink, twist or attract termites, and it is non-combustible, which helps on sites with a bushfire attack level. Frames stay straight, so plasterboard and cabinetry go in without packing and shimming.

Every frame is engineered for the site wind classification and BAL rating, with documentation for your building surveyor.

Steel frames Melbourne: key benefits

  • Straight and true: steel does not shrink, twist or bow, so walls and ceilings in Melbourne homes stay flat.
  • Termite-proof: TRUECORE® steel cannot be eaten by termites and will not rot.
  • Non-combustible: steel does not burn, which helps on bushfire-prone land.
  • Fast to install: pre-assembled, labelled panels go up quickly with less waste.
  • Engineered: every frame is designed for your site wind and BAL rating, with certification included.
  • Backed by a 50-year warranty on TRUECORE® steel for eligible applicants.

These benefits are why more builders choose steel frames Melbourne for homes, granny flats, duplexes and commercial projects.

Steel vs timber frames in Melbourne

Melbourne’s changeable weather can soak timber frames before lock-up, leading to shrinkage and movement later. Steel frames Melbourne homes are built with are unaffected by rain on site, stay straight and are termite-proof. Prefabricated panels also suit the compact lots in growth corridors such as Werribee, Craigieburn and Clyde, where fast, accurate frames keep trades on schedule.
