Hi

I have a problem.. I work for a company in Leeds that supplies and installs steel fabricated security enclosures for cash machines.. We've been asked to install one such enclosure (just like the picture) at a village in North Wales but the local authority have stipulated that it have a rendered finish.. So, my first question is..

Is it possible to apply a rendered finish to a powder coated steel box?

I presume it's not possible to apply directly, but is there any kind of board that can be mechanically fixed to the steel room that can then take multiple coats of render?

I've also seen products like the pre-rendered insulated panels from the likes of Kingspan but these seem more suited to larger areas.

In the past we've applied a brick slip to this type of enclosure but i guess render is much more likely to crack etc..

Any opinions are welcome.. fyi - we're also looking for someone local to North Wales to do the works for us :)

Thanks
Lee

were in north wales mate
 
done somthing like this few years back . We spot welded ss eml and rendered with high bond . A lot of work but if this is what they want
 
Aquapanel or Hardibacker. But how to fix them without drilling into the steel?

There is a product made by Stomix at St Helens which is not only very sticky but very flexible. It is used as a base coat then perhaps a bucket coat on top. You will need to ring them for details as it was shown to me when I was there but the name of it escapes me. They had it on a flexible piece of metal to show how it sticks and flexes. Ask for Michael Carrington. Tel 01744611681
