Window Shrouds

Custom architectural window shroud systems — fabricated and installed to specification for Melbourne’s commercial construction sector.

 

Reveals.
Shrouds.
Hoods.
Precisely Made.

Window shrouds are one of the most visible elements of a building’s exterior — and when they’re done right, they define its character. At Straight Up Metal Services, we fabricate and install the full range of window shroud types, from clean flat profiles through to complex louvred and custom architectural systems.

Every shroud is manufactured to exact project drawings and installed to a precise fit. We work closely with builders, architects, and façade engineers to ensure the finished product aligns perfectly with the design intent — on time and on spec.

From Drawing to Installation.

Every reveal, shroud and hood we fabricate and install is built to the exact dimensions and specifications provided in the project drawings. Our team works closely with builders, architects, and façade engineers throughout the process to ensure every profile, fixing detail, and finish is delivered exactly as designed — from first measurement through to final installation.

Drawing Review & Brief

We review your architectural drawings and project brief to confirm scope, profile type, material, and fixing requirements before quoting.

Fabrication

Every shroud is fabricated in our Somerton workshop to exact dimensions. We cut, fold, weld, and finish each component before delivery to site.

Site Installation

Our experienced install team fits each shroud to a precise alignment, coordinating with the builder to suit the construction programme.

Quality Check & Handover

We inspect every installation before handover, ensuring alignment, finish, and fixing all meet specification and project expectations.

The Right Material for Every Project.

We work across all common window shroud materials — selecting the right option based on the project’s structural requirements, environment, aesthetic brief, and budget. Every material we use is sourced from reputable Australian suppliers and finished to the highest standard.

Mild Steel

The workhorse of commercial shroud fabrication. Cost-effective, strong, and highly workable — suitable for the vast majority of commercial and multi-residential applications.

Powder Coat

Hot-Dip Galv

Primed & Painted

Stainless Steel

Ideal for coastal environments or premium commercial projects where a polished or brushed metallic finish is required. Excellent corrosion resistance with minimal maintenance.

Brushed

Polished

Satin

Aluminium

Lightweight and naturally corrosion-resistant, aluminium is well-suited to louvred systems, large-format shrouds, and projects with strict weight or thermal bridging requirements.
