Custom Built-In Braais & Steel Fire Pits in Gauteng
Custom fabricated steel braais and fire pits for patios, braai areas and outdoor entertainment spaces across Gauteng. From built-in braai units to freestanding braais and modern steel fire pits, each project can be manufactured around your available space and preferred design.
Custom Steel Braais for Patios & Entertainment Areas
A braai area is often one of the most-used entertainment spaces in a South African home. A custom steel unit allows the braai to be fabricated around the available opening, patio layout and practical requirements of the space.
Steel & Welding Co manufactures custom steel braai units, freestanding braais and steel fire pits for properties throughout Gauteng.
Depending on the project, the steelwork can incorporate grill supports, removable grids, fire or coal areas, ash collection sections, storage space and other practical fabricated components.

Braais & Fire Pits Made to Order
Different homes and entertainment areas require different sizes and configurations, so the steelwork can be fabricated specifically for the individual project.
Built-In Steel Braais
Custom steel braai units manufactured to fit suitable masonry or constructed braai openings in patios and entertainment areas.
Freestanding Steel Braais
Complete freestanding braai structures for patios and outdoor areas where a permanently built-in unit is not required.
Custom Steel Fire Pits
Square, rectangular and other practical steel fire-pit designs for gardens, patios and outdoor seating areas.
Braai Grids & Supports
Custom grill-support rails, removable grids and internal support components designed around the dimensions of the braai.
Ash & Coal Trays
Practical fabricated tray sections for fire, charcoal and ash management according to the design of the unit.
Wood Storage & Shelves
Lower wood-storage areas, steel shelves and useful side surfaces can be incorporated into suitable freestanding or built-in designs.

Custom Braai Fabrication
Custom braai fabrication begins with the dimensions and intended configuration of the finished unit. Steel plates, frames and internal supports are measured, cut, positioned and welded to produce the required structure.
Because the units are fabricated individually, dimensions can be adjusted around an existing opening or around the preferred size of a new freestanding braai.
Steel Braais Built Around Existing Openings
Existing braai openings are not always the same size, which is where custom fabrication becomes useful.
Custom Width
The braai body can be fabricated around the available opening instead of relying only on standard retail dimensions.
Adjustable Grill Positions
Multiple support positions can be incorporated where the design requires different grill heights.
Removable Components
Grill grids and suitable internal tray components can be designed for easier removal and access.
Practical Storage
Selected designs can include lower areas for storing firewood or braai accessories.

Custom Steel Fire Pits
A freestanding steel fire pit can create a simple focal point for an outdoor seating area without requiring a permanently constructed fireplace.
Fire pits can be fabricated in practical square or rectangular configurations and sized according to the available patio or garden space.
The final dimensions, steel configuration and placement should suit the intended use and surrounding area.
Freestanding Steel Braais
A freestanding braai is useful where there is no existing masonry braai opening or where a complete steel unit is preferred for the patio or entertainment area.
The structure can incorporate a grill area, lower storage section and practical side shelf according to the size and layout of the unit.
Custom fabrication also allows the height and width to be planned around the space rather than choosing only from standard pre-manufactured products.

Custom Braai Features & Options
Custom Dimensions
Width, height and depth can be planned around an existing braai opening or available patio space.
Grill Support Layout
Internal rails and supports can be positioned according to the grill arrangement required for the particular design.
Shelves & Storage
Selected designs can incorporate side surfaces, accessory storage or lower firewood areas.
