Perforated Metal Enclosures: offer a multifaceted solution for diverse applications, blending
functionality with aesthetics. Use Picture perf, stand Perf or Decorative Perf to make an enclosure or cabinets, enclosures can be a feature rather than an eyesore without sacrificing the functional elements. Key features of perforated enclosures include excellent ventilation, light control, privacy, and durability. Ensuring security and access control.

Woven Wire Mesh Enclosures: Woven wire mesh is extremely versatile product and works well for the application of enclosures much like perforated metal it seamlessly blends functionality and aesthetics across many different applications from architectural, security, storage, animal containment to electrical enclosures and communication and networking equipment for example in Data centers.

Laser Cutting Enclosures: Overall, laser cutting technology plays a crucial role in the manufacturing of enclosures and cabinets, when combined with perforated metal we can produce excellent solutions and provide precise, customisable, and efficient manufacturing solutions. Ensuring high-quality enclosed components, flat pack enclosures or custom complex designs as per your specifications.

Metal enclosures are protective containers or housing units made from various types of metal, such as steel, aluminum, or stainless steel, designed to safeguard and enclose valuable or sensitive equipment, components, or systems. These enclosures come in a variety of sizes and configurations, each tailored to specific industrial, commercial, or residential applications. They serve as protective barriers against environmental factors, physical damage, and unauthorized access while ensuring the reliable operation of the enclosed equipment.

Patterns:

CAD Design: Graepels can work with your drawings to ensure accuracy and precision thus we manufacture to customers specifications.Post Processing: Depending on the material and application, laser- cut components may require additional processing such as surface finishing, welding, or assembly.

Security Enclosures: Metal products can also be used to provide protection for valuable assets, equipment, and personnel in high-security environments such as banks, data centers, and government facilities. They may include features such as reinforced doors, access control systems, and surveillance cameras.

Electronic Enclosures: Perforated, laser cut, and woven enclosures are used to provide protection for electronic devices and equipment from electromagnetic interference (EMI), static, and physical damage. They are used in industries such as telecommunications, aerospace, and healthcare for housing sensitive electronic components like servers, routers, and medical devices.

Transportation Enclosures: Perforated Metal, Woven Mesh and laser can all be used to protect equipment and cargo during transportation, including cases for sensitive instruments, protective covers for machinery, and containers for shipping hazardous materials.

Bicycle Parking and Storage: Metal Enclosures in perforated metal or woven mesh are also used to provide secure parking and storage for bicycles in public areas, workplaces, residential buildings, and transportation hubs. They protect bikes from theft and vandalism.

Bin Enclosures: Bin enclosures from perforated sheets, woven wire mesh and laser are used to store waste bins, recycling containers, and dumpsters in outdoor settings, such as residential complexes, commercial properties, and public spaces. These enclosures help contain odors, prevent littering, and improve the area’s overall appearance. They are typically made of durable materials like steel, aluminum, or galvanized steel mesh and can be customized with locking mechanisms and access doors for security.
