KH Engineering provides fully galvanised structural steel as part of our complete fabrication service. We coordinate hot dip galvanising through trusted specialist partners to BS EN ISO 1461, ensuring every member is correctly prepared, galvanised to specification, and delivered to site ready for erection.
Galvanising is specified for structural steel in harsh or corrosive environments — energy infrastructure, coastal structures, bridge steelwork, and exposed commercial and residential developments. KH fabricates and prepares the steelwork and coordinates the full process through accredited specialist plants.
Hot dip galvanising to BS EN ISO 1461 provides decades of corrosion protection in Irish conditions — with significantly lower lifetime costs than paint systems.
Hot dip galvanising provides decades of corrosion protection in Irish conditions — with zero early-life maintenance and significantly lower lifetime costs than paint systems.
KH manages fabrication, surface preparation, galvanising coordination, and delivery as a single package — ensuring a streamlined, fully coordinated process from start to finish.
All galvanising is carried out to BS EN ISO 1461 through accredited specialist plants. Full certification and coating thickness records are provided on every contract.
We regularly supply galvanised steelwork for energy and renewables, pharmaceutical, infrastructure, and exposed commercial projects where long-term corrosion resistance is a specification requirement.
Tell us your project’s exposure category and galvanising specification and we’ll confirm coating requirements as part of your fabrication package.
From fabrication and surface preparation through to galvanised finish and delivery to site — we coordinate the full process so you don’t have to.
At the detailing stage, our team ensures steelwork is designed to galvanise correctly — with adequate vent and drain holes, correct section thicknesses, and appropriate connection details.
Steel is fabricated at our Kildare facility and shot blasted to the required preparation grade before being dispatched to our galvanising partner for processing.
Steelwork is hot dip galvanised to BS EN ISO 1461 by accredited specialist plants. Coating thickness is specified and verified to meet the project's corrosion category requirements.
Galvanising certificates and coating thickness records are compiled and delivered with the steelwork. Galvanised members are then dispatched to site in erection sequence.
We manage fabrication, surface preparation, galvanising coordination, and delivery as a single package — no gaps, no separate contractors.
