Framing plants at capacity
Your line is booked out for weeks and a builder needs frames on site next month. Send the overflow to us and keep the delivery date.
Contract LGS frame manufacturing · NSW
Send us your FRAMECAD production files. We run them on our F325iT line, assemble the panels and trusses, label every bundle and load it onto your truck at our gate in Gregory Hills. Transport and everything after the gate stay with you, and so do the client, the engineering and the margin.
Division of work
We are a production partner, not a competitor for your client. Your name stays on the job.
Who this is for
Your line is booked out for weeks and a builder needs frames on site next month. Send the overflow to us and keep the delivery date.
A tooling change, a breakdown or a relocation should not stop your deliveries. Same files, same profile, different roof.
You do the design work and want to sell the frame too. We become your factory, priced per metre, no capital and no factory lease.
You want the design and engineering under your control and one supplier for the frames. Give us the production files, we hand you the kit at the gate.
How it works
One phone call to talk through the job, then FRAMECAD production files and panel layouts. We check profile, gauge and punch pattern against our tooling and confirm the lineal metres.
Price agreed by phone
Fixed price per metre, delivery week and coil gauge confirmed in writing. A deposit books the production slot.
Typical lead time 2–4 weeks
Members are formed, punched and ID-printed, then assembled on jigs in panel order. Every panel is checked against the drawing before it is stacked.
Roll-only or fully assembled
Panels are stacked in your delivery sequence, strapped, labelled and loaded onto your truck together with the bracket and fastener kit. From the gate on, transport and site logistics are yours.
Ex-works Gregory Hills · loading included

Why us
LP Frames is the manufacturing company of the Lares & Penates group, a Sydney developer and licensed builder. Our line was set up to frame our own housing projects in regional NSW, and it has spare hours in the week. Every frame we ship to you goes through the same checks as the frames our own site crew has to stand up the next morning.
