Additional services at ShadeCo India cover the steel and roofing work that often comes with a shade project but is not a tensile structure itself. This includes railings, gates, staircases, metal and polycarbonate roofing, gutters, louvers and bird netting, so clients can get general fabrication and roofing work done in one place.

These jobs use the same Delhi workshop, in-house fabricators and site teams as our tensile projects. ShadeCo India Private Limited has been doing this work since 2010, on projects across India and abroad, including Nepal. Steel parts are cut, welded and powder-coated or painted in-house before they reach the site.

Metal Fabrication

Our workshop makes steel items to measure, from a single gate to a full mezzanine floor.

  • Railings: MS and SS railings for balconies, staircases and terraces.
  • Gates and Grills: MS gates, window grills and boundary grills.
  • Steel Staircases: Straight and turning stairs for buildings, sheds and terraces.
  • Mezzanines and Platforms: Steel floors and working platforms inside sheds and warehouses.
  • Custom Steel Frames: Frames, stands and supports made to your drawing.

Railing heights are set by the National Building Code of India and local building rules. They usually call for higher guard rails on balconies than on stairs, and they discourage horizontal bars that children can climb. Our team follows the rules that apply to your building.

Metal Sheet and Polycarbonate Roofing

Metal roofing sheets on steel purlins are a practical roof for sheds, warehouses and factory buildings. Polycarbonate sheets are used on terraces, walkways and skylights where daylight is wanted under the roof. We supply and fix both, along with the steel frame that carries them.

  • Roof Slope: Polycarbonate roofs are laid at a slope of about 5° or more, so rainwater runs off freely.
  • Rib Direction: The ribs of multiwall sheets run down the slope, so water inside the flutes can drain.
  • UV Side Out: The printed, UV-protected face of each sheet is fixed facing the sky.
  • Room to Expand: Fixing holes are made larger than the screws, and edges are sealed with tapes and neutral silicone.

Gutters, Downpipes and Drainage

A roof is only as good as the way it sheds water. We make and fix new GI and SS gutters and downpipes for sheds, shade structures and buildings, sized to the roof area they drain. Existing gutters are also repaired: leaking joints are resealed, sagging brackets are refixed and damaged lengths are replaced.

Louvers, Sun Shades and Bird Netting

Aluminium and MS louvers and window sun shades cut down direct sun and glare while still letting air pass through. They suit building fronts, plant rooms and west-facing windows.

Bird netting keeps pigeons and other birds off shade structures, ledges and roof spaces. It also reduces droppings on fabric roofs, which lowers the need for cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions About Additional Services

ShadeCo India offers metal fabrication, roofing and drainage work alongside its tensile structures. This includes MS and SS railings, gates and grills, steel staircases, mezzanines and custom frames. We also install metal sheet and polycarbonate roofing, make and fix GI and SS gutters and downpipes, repair old gutters, and supply louvers, sun shades and bird netting. All steel parts are made in our Delhi workshop.

Yes, ShadeCo India makes MS and SS railings for balconies, staircases and terraces, along with MS gates, window grills and boundary grills. Each item is measured on site, made in our Delhi workshop and finished with powder coating or paint before fixing. Designs can be plain or patterned, and decorative panels can be cut on our CNC machines for a more detailed look.

A polycarbonate roof should usually have a slope of about 5 degrees or more, so rainwater runs off and dirt does not settle. Steeper slopes drain and self-clean better. Multiwall sheets are fixed with their ribs running down the slope, the UV-protected face upward, and oversized fixing holes to allow for heat expansion. The exact slope and purlin spacing should follow the sheet maker's data.

Yes, ShadeCo India installs metal sheet roofing for sheds, warehouses and factory buildings. Our team makes and erects the steel frame and purlins, then fixes the roofing sheets with the correct overlaps and fasteners. Gutters and downpipes can be added in the same job, so water from the roof is led away cleanly. Polycarbonate sheets can be included where daylight is needed inside.

Yes, ShadeCo India makes and installs new GI and SS gutters and downpipes for sheds, shade structures and buildings. Gutters are sized to the roof area they drain and fixed on brackets at a slight fall towards the outlets. We also repair existing gutters by resealing leaking joints, refixing sagging brackets and replacing damaged lengths, which stops overflow onto walls and walkways.

Railing height is set by the National Building Code of India and local building rules, and it differs for balconies and stairs. Balcony and terrace guard rails are usually required to be higher than stair handrails, and grills should not have horizontal bars that children can climb. Because state and city rules can vary, our team checks the rules that apply to your building before making the railing.

Louvers are rows of angled blades fixed over windows, building fronts or plant rooms. They block direct sun and glare while still letting air and some light pass through, which helps keep rooms cooler. ShadeCo India makes louvers and window sun shades in aluminium and MS, with blade spacing and angle chosen for the direction the wall faces. They can be powder-coated in our workshop.

Yes, bird netting can be fitted to shade structures, building ledges and roof spaces to keep pigeons and other birds away. ShadeCo India fixes the net on a tensioned wire or frame so it stays tight and does not sag. Keeping birds off a fabric roof reduces droppings, which stain the fabric and are hard to clean, so it also lowers cleaning needs over time.
