Steel frames, gates and shelves, quoted from the drawing

A new steel gate, a frame or a run of metal shelves is quote on inspection. The weld we already price is narrower: a dropped hinge welded on site is S$180 to S$350. An autogate board is S$220 to S$450 and a motor is S$480 to S$950. A new railing whose height changes is permit work, not a repair.

How it works

  1. 1

    Send one photo of each piece, the block, and whether the home is HDB, condo or landed.

  2. 2

    We match a band already printed on HomeySG, or we say quote on inspection.

  3. 3

    A layout change, hacking, or a built-in strip-out is named as V On Construction. A truck is not included.

  4. 4

    You confirm the scope before anyone comes. Curtains, blinds and roller shades stay off the booking.

What this job actually is

1. Existing leaf or new 2. Hinge weld if it matches 3. New work is a quote 4. Permit if the barrier changes
Repair the leaf, or fabricate a new one

Metal fabrication Singapore searches mix a new mild-steel gate, a shelf bracket, and a snapped hinge. They are not one invoice. The autogate and gate welding page prices the repair: on-site arc or MIG welding and primer at S$180 to S$350 when the leaf can be propped, a board or limit or battery at S$220 to S$450, an arm or underground motor at S$480 to S$950, and a sliding track and latch at S$240 to S$480. Those rows stay there. This page is a piece that does not exist yet: a frame, a gate leaf, a rack, a planter stand. That is quote on inspection. We do not publish a rate per kilogram or per foot of steel.

A new gate at an HDB service yard or a landed car porch is not “just a weld” because the old hinge once was. If the leaf, the posts and the latch are being made, send the opening, the swing, and a photo of the existing pier. If the work changes the flat’s renovation scope, HDB’s renovation page applies, including a fine of up to $5,000 when a renovation breaches the rules. Applying for approval is the permit step. V On Construction invoices that permit. Homey Furnishing invoices the exempt repair. A hinge weld on a leaf that stays is the repair the autogate page already calls metalwork, not a renovation. Do not stretch that sentence across a new leaf.

Stair metal is the other trap. Re-anchoring a loose handrail is S$250 to S$480. A wobbly glass balustrade with the glass intact is S$350 to S$780. The staircase page already says BCA Approved Document Section C looks for a barrier of at least 1.0 m and for clamps that do not deflect, and that a new barrier design or a height change is permit work. We will not design a new stair as a furniture extra. BCA’s page on works that do not need plan approval is the question to read before anyone pretends a new flight is maintenance. A squeaky tread is S$380 to S$850. It is not a new staircase.

Shelving in steel is quote on inspection unless it is a loose furniture carton, which is the assembly band, or a wall shelf whose first install has no published price. The shop display-shelving page is a mall gondola and a glass showcase, with showcase hardware at S$250 to S$550 when the photo matches. A workshop rack for a factory is not that showcase. Send the span and the load. We will not guess a steel thickness from a sketch with no dimensions. A shelf screwed into a household shelter wall is refused.

We do not publish a welding licence class, a warranty in years, or a powder-coat colour chart with prices. Outdoor steel rusts in Singapore rain. A primer on the hinge repair is part of that S$180 to S$350 sentence. A full powder coat on a new gate is part of the quote, not a line we have printed. Mains power inside an autogate controller follows the autogate page: it is not a new gate. Window grilles, invisible grilles and window repairs stay on the window pages. Curtains are not a metal product.

Homey Furnishing Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 202018148K), 27 Mandai Estate, #06-10 Innovation Place, Singapore 729931, invoices permit-exempt furniture assembly and repair. V On Construction Pte. Ltd. (ACRA UEN 201611708H), on the HDB Directory of Renovation Contractors, invoices an HDB renovation permit when the work is a new layout, hacking, or a built-in strip-out. Homey Furnishing is not a removal company and does not publish a truck rate.

Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not part of this booking. Fabric window treatments are a different product, and these pages do not quote them.

What to do first

Look at the piece in the room. Do not drag a tall wardrobe across a wet floor to test it.

  1. Say repair of an existing leaf, or a new piece.
  2. Photograph the opening and the swing.
  3. Do not send a per-foot steel rate for us to honour.
  4. Ask whether the barrier height changes before you call it a repair.
  5. Keep window grilles on the window pages.

HDB, condo and landed

The building changes the permission and the disposal path. It does not invent a second price.

LandedAutogate motors stay on the autogate page.A new leaf is still a quote.No HDB permit, and still no per-kilogram rate.

Stainless, aluminium and acrylic are the next pages

Mild steel, stainless and aluminium do not share a price. Stainless and aluminium have their own pages so a 304 rack is not invoiced as a mild-steel hinge weld. Acrylic display pieces are a third page. If you do not know the metal, send a photo of a cut edge or a magnet test you actually did. We will not guess the alloy from a paint colour.

A magnet sticking does not prove the hinge weld price applies. It only says the metal is magnetic. The scope is still repair or new.

How you're charged

How you're charged

A furniture job that already has a sentence on HomeySG uses that sentence. Nothing in this table is a fuel surcharge, and the handyman hour is not added on top of a band unless the written scope says so. IKEA publishes its own checkout fee. That percentage is not a HomeySG band.

Who may do the work

Who is allowed to do the work

The permit guide on this site already splits hardware from a renovation. A cabinet hinge, a gas strut and a drawer runner do not need an HDB renovation permit when the layout stays. A new kitchen or bathroom layout, hacking, or removing a wall does. Fines for unauthorised work are already written there as up to S$5,000. Homey Furnishing does not sign the permit invoice.

  • Flat-pack assembly uses the furniture assembly catalogue. Tall units are wall-anchored on that visit. A separate anti-tip price is not printed, except the child-gate and anti-tip bundle at S$180 to S$420 when that bundle is the job.
  • A built-in that has to come off the wall can become a strip-out. That is V On Construction if the flat is HDB and the work needs a permit. A loose shelf inside a carcass is not a strip-out.
  • Town councils collect some bulky loose items on their own rules. We are not the collector, and we do not publish their fee.
  • A new cable inside a wardrobe is an electrician. Assembly does not include a new circuit.
  • Do not anchor into a household shelter wall. The permit guide already keeps TV brackets and shelves off that wall.
  • A hollow partition or a false ceiling is a poor anchor for a tall wardrobe. If the fixing cannot reach structure, the visit stops.
  • Active termites are not painted over. Skirting and door-frame replacement after damage uses the termite page bands. We do not claim to be the pest-control operator.
  • Curtains, blinds and roller shades are not quoted here.

Ways to keep the bill smaller

Ways to keep the bill smaller

  • Photograph every piece before a carpenter is booked. A hinge visit is not a new kitchen.
  • Put the flat-pack in the room where it will stand. Carrying a built wardrobe down an HDB corridor is a second job.
  • If the drawer only sticks, use the published slide row. A new carcass is the cabinet page, and only when the board is swollen.
  • Book the town council bulky slot before you pay anyone to truck a loose sofa. Many councils collect a limited number of loose items. Built-ins are usually excluded.
  • Photograph the hinge and say whether the leaf already exists. A new gate is not the S$180 weld.

Stairs, fences, pergolas and sheet metal

A new gate on this page stays quote on inspection. A spiral stair, a balcony rail, a pergola, a carport, a boundary fence and a sheet-metal part each have their own page so a hinge weld is not reused as their price.

Frames, planters and solar rails are their own quotes

A new gate stays on this page. A furniture frame, a planter and a solar mounting rail are separate quotes. None of them has a kilogram price. We do not publish a lead time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a custom steel gate in Singapore?

Quote on inspection. Welding a dropped hinge on a leaf that already exists is S$180 to S$350. A new leaf is not that weld.

Do I need an HDB permit for a metal gate?

A hinge repair on the existing leaf is the autogate page and is described there as metalwork, not a renovation. A new gate or a new layout can be a permit through V On Construction. Read HDB’s renovation page.

Is a staircase included?

No. Re-anchoring a handrail is S$250 to S$480. A new barrier or a height change is permit work. BCA’s Approved Document Section C, as already stated on the stair page, looks for a barrier of at least 1.0 m.

Can you powder-coat it?

A primer is part of the hinge-weld sentence. A full coat on a new gate is inside the quote. We do not publish a colour price list.

Do you fabricate window grilles?

Window grilles stay on the window pages. This page is gates, frames and shelves that are not a window.

How much is a wrought iron or sliding gate?

Quote on inspection. We do not publish a style premium for wrought iron, or a rate for a new sliding leaf. A sliding track on a leaf that already exists is S$240 to S$480 on the autogate page.

Is laser cutting this page?

No. A dimensioned sheet-metal part is the sheet-metal page, and it has no pierce rate. A new gate stays quote on inspection here.
