How steel fabricators use SiteLens

Find frame work at planning stage

Commercial sheds, industrial units and mid-rise residential all hit the register months before the steel package goes out. SiteLens alerts you at validation so you can approach the main contractor or developer first.

Filter to the schemes that carry tonnage

Every application is classified by category, scale and estimated value. Set a minimum project size and your region so you see the warehouses, frames and structural schemes worth quoting, not the single-storey extensions.

Track the developers who build in steel

Follow the contractors and developers behind industrial and commercial schemes across 380+ councils, see their pipeline, and build the relationship before the enquiry lands on a compliance portal.

Three things you get from day one

Map-first search

Every application in your region, on one map. Filter by category, value band, and proximity.

Project briefs

Category, scale and plain-English brief on every application — know what it’s worth before you open it.

Daily email alerts
