  Each type of metal grating has unique elements that make it ideal for particular types of applications and projects. Generally, metal grating is seen as the ideal solution for durable, low-maintenance, and safe applications:

  Flooring – indoor and outdoor walkways, including mezzanines, catwalks, platforms, marine walkways, bridge sidewalks, industrial floors, operating rooms, and for lightweight vehicle traffic

  Stair treads – fire escapes, industrial stairwells, stairwells exposed to extreme temperatures, and more

  Protective coverings – water filtration systems, sumps, trenches, drains, etc.

  Loading ramps – cargo ramps and platforms, including those built for forklift traffic

  Fencing – fences, barriers, partitions, security screens, and snow fences

  Additional projects – concrete reinforcement, light guards, window guards, vehicle and ornamental grills, shelving, truck beds, locomotive running boards, and more

  However, this list is far from all-inclusive. If you don’t see your specific project type, we encourage you to speak with a steel expert at Service Steel to see if metal grating can still meet your needs.
