Every figure below comes from a completed project on this page. They are the numbers a main contractor or developer actually needs when deciding whether a steel frame specialist can handle their scheme.
We work across SFS infill, stick-build full builds and panellised full builds, for main contractors, developers, local authorities and universities — in London, the South East and across the UK.

Infill is the largest part of our portfolio. These are non-load-bearing walls of cold-formed steel fixed between the floors of a concrete or hot rolled steel frame — carrying cladding, sheathing and wind load, but not the building’s weight.
The projects below run from a 120-minute fire-rated façade at the former Fulham Gas Depot for Erith, to a 14-storey mixed-use tower in west London built with no site storage at all, to an acoustic wall of 18-metre studs separating offices from military weapons storage in Bolton.

BAS Frames installed over 2,000m2 of SFS and external boarding at The Lea, Denham near Uxbridge, inside a 6-week programme — with a team of just 4 operatives, working entirely from scissor lifts at first-floor level. This is one of the few commercial schemes where the client appointed BAS Frames to deliver the full SFS […]
BAS Frames built 8 new flats on the roof of an occupied 6-storey block at Cross Keys, Edmonton N9, using a stick-build steel frame with joists lifted into place by hand — completed in 12 weeks. Cross Keys was the second rooftop extension Forts Group awarded to BAS Frames, following Albany Court in Trenmar Gardens. […]
BAS Frames built a 6-flat rooftop extension at Albany Court, Trenmar Gardens NW10, using a stick-build steel frame assembled in place above occupied flats — completed in 8 weeks with no delivery rejected. Forts Group appointed BAS Frames to add 6 new flats to the roof of an existing residential block in north-west London. Residents […]
BAS Frames designed, supplied and installed SFS infill achieving a 120-minute fire rating at the former Fulham Gas Depot on Imperial Road SW6 — double the industry standard, delivered for Erith in 6 weeks. A demolition contractor moving into building works St William acquired and managed the Imperial Road site. The gas depot building itself […]
BAS Frames added 4 storeys to an existing residential building at 56 Chatfield Road, Wandsworth SW11, on the bank of the River Thames — working from incomplete architect’s drawings and spotting a scaffold tie clash that would have cost the client significantly if it had been found later. Delivered in 10 weeks. The client was […]
BAS Frames installed a high-rise SFS acoustic infill system at Lea Field Way, Bolton, separating office areas from military weapons storage in a UK defence warehouse — with 18-metre studs erected by electric hoist from MEWPs, in 8 weeks. Working for Conamar Building Services in partnership with Steel Frame Solutions, BAS Frames handled installation and […]
BAS Frames delivered the SFS infill package to a 14-storey mixed-use tower and a 4-storey office building on Elmfield Way in west London, working with zero on-site storage and a just-in-time delivery regime, for HG Construction in 2018 over 12 weeks. The scheme combined residential and commercial space in a 14-storey tower alongside a separate […]
BAS Frames formed all external walls and window openings in SFS around a hot rolled steel frame at Morasha Jewish Primary School in Finchley N3, clad externally in CP board — the complete external envelope delivered in under 3 weeks in 2018. The main structure was built in hot rolled steel (HRS). Our scope was […]
Panellised construction delivers wall and floor panels built in a factory as flat, complete units, then assembled on site. It is not modular: modular means finished three-dimensional room units craned into place, which is a different product with different site requirements.
Perrymount Road in Haywards Heath is an 8-storey standalone building constructed entirely in light gauge steel, with no primary concrete or hot rolled frame — among the tallest of its kind in the UK. The design was signed off over 3 months before a single fabrication drawing was issued, because a panel made to a superseded drawing cannot be trimmed to fit.

Perrymount Road in Haywards Heath is an 8-storey standalone building constructed entirely in light gauge steel — one of the tallest buildings in the UK delivered as a panellised SFS full build with no primary concrete or hot rolled steel frame. Most steel framing systems on a building this height sit as infill inside a […]
Stick-build means assembling the frame on site, component by component, rather than lifting in prefabricated panels. It is the method for sites panels cannot reach: occupied buildings, restricted craneage, complex geometry, or an existing structure where the as-built never quite matches the drawing.
That is why it dominates rooftop and airspace work. Below: 54 flats over 7 storeys for Croydon Council at Purley; 25 student blocks extended at 2 weeks each, using a single forklift with students in residence; and a 5-storey building in Slough topped with a stick-built steel pitched roof and individually formed dormer windows.

BAS Frames delivered a 7-storey steel frame full build providing 54 flats for Croydon Council on Russell Hill Road, Purley — taking over a scheme after another contractor had left the ground floor with defects, and completing it through the COVID-19 pandemic in 18 weeks. The scheme replaced 7 detached houses near Purley Station with […]
BAS Frames delivered a 2-storey steel frame full build on the roof of the former Peterborough City Council offices at Bayard Plaza, Broadway, forming the penthouse level of a 102-apartment office-to-residential conversion — built through a winter of rain, snow and high winds in 18 weeks.

BAS Frames delivered a single-storey rooftop full build with CP board external walls at South Plaza, Bristol, in 3 weeks — scheduling every crane lift at weekends to avoid the cost of weekday high-street closures for Dako Construction and Study Inn. Completed in 2018, this was one of the first projects Dako Construction ran as […]
