Lightwell Grill Fabrication and Installation

JT Metalworks was commissioned to design, fabricate and install a bespoke lightwell grill for a newly completed basement conversion. Basement renovations often require a durable, safe and visually appealing lightwell grill positioned in front of a bay window to ensure proper ventilation, daylight flow and secure external access.

Our team carried out a full on-site assessment and produced a custom-made lightwell grill precisely measured to suit the unique shape, size and functional requirements of the property, ensuring a perfect fit and seamless integration with the surrounding architecture.

To guarantee long-term structural integrity, the new0grilll was fabricated from high-quality steel and fully galvanised, providing industry-leading corrosion protection. This galvanised finish offers a lifetime warranty against rust, making it ideal for outdoor environments exposed to moisture and weathering. The grill can also be powder coated upon request to achieve a sleek, modern aesthetic that compliments any residential or commercial façade.

The lightwell grill includes reinforced bars for enhanced security, optional hinged or lockable access panels for maintenance and anti-slip features for safe pedestrian use. Whether required for a bay window, external access area or full basement renovation our custom metal fabrication, on-site welding and mobile welder expertise ensures exceptional durability, function and appearance.

This project highlights JT Metalworks Ltd’s commitment to precision engineering, safety-driven design and high-end craftmanship. From initial measurement to final installation our mobile welding services deliver convenience, efficiency and superior results.

For all your metal work needs, Tom from JT Metal Works is the real deal. I found Tom's details online and telephoned him. We corresponded via WhatsApp initially, as I was trying to explain my requirements. He gave me an estimate which was competitive with the other quotes I received. I asked Tom to do the following: Design a cage for a window box for the bottom window sill, in the front garden, to stop the troughs being knock to the ground by foxes. Design a new latch for my front gate, as I was unhappy with the one I had. We discussed loosely the design of the cage. I was happy with the quote, so I engaged Tom to carry out the work. Tom asked if he could come to my home to measure up and discuss the design in more detail. I asked him to pause, as I was waiting for some new troughs and I wanted to ensure the measurements would be correct. When the troughs arrived, Tom came and measured up and discussed the design. Tom went into a lot of detail. The types of rods used. The height of the cage. How the cage would be attached to the wall, etc. After a lot of discussion, I also asked Tom to make a rail for the front wall and my gate was rusting, so I asked him to respray it. I'm really pleased Tom went into so much detail, as I really wanted it to look great. Tom was very prompt starting the job. Tom had to replicate the design at the top of my gate, as he couldn't get in touch with the individual who designed/made my gate. Tom contacted me when he was replicating the design, to check I was happy with the copy. The job took approximately 4 weeks. Tom came and installed everything. Again, checking things during the installation. I'm glad he did, as there was a question about the front rail and I wanted it installed in a particular way. I am SO happy with the results. It looks beautiful. The cage fits perfectly. Everything ties in; the gate, cage and rail. Tom is a real professional, who takes pride in his work and wants to do the best job. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.

An absolutely legendary service from Tom. The project was challenging, but he relentlessly fought for us like a champion: never giving up, always supportive, positive, approachable and there for you, regardless of any setbacks or obstacles. You can immediately feel he genuinely cares and takes pride of his work. A rare and so valuable trait these days. You can't go wrong working with him - just do it!

JT Ironworks were amazing. They did an urgent repair to our cast iron banister on our Victorian staircase in South Ken Looks even better than before. Super respectful. Clean. Very conscientious. Could not recommend more highly. Brilliant guys.

Had our balcony floor replaced. The guys worked tirelessly on a hot day to remove the old floor, treat the rust and replace with a new floor. The balcony was on the first floor so was not easy to remove the old and bring in the new floor. They were so polite and tidy sweeping up after themselves. Would definately recommend.
