🌊 Bayswater Waterfront – Steel Nerds, This One's For You 🔩🚚

A CAD drawn masterpiece taking shape on the waterfront in Bayswater, with the installation handled by the legends at and their trusty hiab. As always, smooth, professional, and right on the money.

If you're a steel nerd, you'll be zooming in on the details:
🔩 The different types of surface protection
🔩 The stubs sitting beneath that decent-sized portal frame
🔩 All the little details that make a project like this come together properly

If you're a normal person, you'll probably notice the pretty trees, the waterfront views, and a particularly talented — yet remarkably camera-shy — steel fabricator trying his best to avoid becoming a social media star. 😄

Beautiful location, beautiful steel, and another project we're proud to be part of.

Big thanks to SG Structural Engineering and Parkes Architecture for the design and engineering expertise behind this one.

🎬 Lights, Camera, Steel! 🔩🏖️🚁

We've got a video this time. I know, cool right? We've finally made it into the '90s. 😎

https://youtu.be/C46_-kE__cE

This one showcases a marquee build on a black sand beach in West Auckland, complete with:

🚁 Drone footage
📸 Still shots
🎵 A groovy soundtrack
🎞️ And what I can only assume is every scene transition effect known to mankind

Honestly, it's got more production value than some movies we've seen lately. I'm looking at you "Mandalorian & Grogu".....

The project itself isn't too shabby either — a stunning location, a marquee structure taking shape against the rugged West Auckland coastline, and some seriously tidy steelwork helping bring it all together.

A huge shoutout to Sullivan Hall for the engineering and Herbst Architects for the design. You guys continue to produce projects that are as interesting as they are beautiful.

Now if you'll excuse us, we'll be waiting for our call from Hollywood. 🎥😄

Check out this beauty we just finished with in Piha!

🔩 Coatesville Renovation – Special from the Start 🏗️🌿

We’re back out in Coatesville renovating again, and sometimes you arrive on site, see the driveway, and just know you’re involved in something special.

These shots show Bevan and Ty installing a galvanised pitched portal frame as part of an addition to the house — tidy steel, great setting, and a seriously good-looking project coming together.

It was a busy day on site, but the lads got there in the end. Just another example of good planning, good teamwork, and cracking on until the job’s done. 💪

Big thanks to and Hutchinson Consulting Engineers for bringing the know-how to this one.

🔩 Greenhithe Reno – Back at It Again 🏗️😄

Man… I reckon we’ve done more jobs in Greenhithe than almost anywhere else.

This renovation has all the classics:
🏠 Building wrap everywhere
🛠️ A sharp little setup for the lads on site
📸 And 3rd year apprentice Bailey looking absolutely (not) stoked to be on camera.

Trust me — when he’s not being photographed, he’s awesome. 😅

Great progress on site and another tidy project underway.

Big thanks to for the vision behind this one.

☀️ Karaka Build – Steel in the Golden Light 🔩🏗️

A new build underway in Karaka, and what an absolute beauty this one is.

These photos capture the whole process nicely — from delivery through to installation, with the lads safely working away from the mobile scaffolding and getting the steel exactly where it needs to be.

And that light…
Beautiful late-afternoon sun sitting low in the sky, showing the project off in all its glory. Hard to beat days like this. 😎

Massive thanks to Patterson Architects for the stunning design and LWT Structural Ltd for the engineering expertise. Great project, great people, great result.

🔩 Meadowbank Build – Grey Steel Done Right 🏗️😎

A new build underway in Meadowbank, packed full of lovely grey steel beams — just the way we like it.

All steel has been painted to IZS4 by our good friends at Metspray, then handed over to our trusty team of legends to install. Solid prep, solid finish, solid result.

These are the kind of volume jobs we love — repeatable, efficient, and satisfying to see come together piece by piece.

Bring it on!! 💪

Big thanks to Gubb Design and DHC — love your work.

🔩 Pt England Portal Frames – For the Steel Beam Addicts 🏗️😄

A few shots here from a new build in Pt England, showing off these tidy spliced portal frames doing their thing.

Don’t worry — there’s more excitement to come upstairs and once the bracing goes in… but this should keep the steel beam addicts out there satisfied for a couple of days.

I’m doing my best to keep you all happy. 😉

Big thanks to Nyree from — genuinely one of the most engaged architects we’ve worked with when it comes to the steel CAD process. That level of involvement makes a real difference and helped this project come together beautifully.

🌊 Piha Steel – CAD, Coastlines & Aerial Views 🔩🚁

We’re back in Piha on this beast of a CAD-driven project, right by the water — and it’s got a bit of everything.

Fully galvanised steel to handle the coastal environment, some seriously tidy detailing, and a few features worth a second look…

👀 Hollow CHS posts doubling as downpipes for internal gutters
🎥 Our Project Manager back in his pilot’s cap, flying the drone and capturing some epic angles
🏗️ And steel going in exactly where it should, as always

You name it, we’ve got it on this one.

Massive thanks to the creative stars at Herbst Architects and the sensible souls at Sullivan Hall — you guys make a great team, and we’re stoked to be part of it.

🔩 Takapuna Reno – Tight Spaces, No Problem 🏗️😎

A tight little renovation in Takapuna, and this one had all the classics:

✂️ Roofline cut
🏗️ Material lifter required
📏 Not a lot of room to move

This is exactly the kind of work we thrive on — when access is tight and the margin for error is even tighter.

You know you need us for your tight space works. 😉

Big thanks to one of the most sensible engineers we know, , for keeping things practical and buildable.

🌺 ANZAC Day – Lest We Forget

Over the weekend we pauses to remember and honour those who have served and sacrificed.

This year, we’re proud to once again support the local ANZAC commemorations by sponsoring the wreath, something that means a lot to us as a business and as individuals.

In these photos, you’ll see our GM’s sons holding the wreath, representing both Black Steel Mobile and , just before the march and ceremony.

It’s a powerful reminder that remembrance is passed down through generations — and that taking part, even in small ways, helps keep that legacy alive.

Lest we forget.
