  • Cutting notes: Please enter any cutting notes or requirements here. If you can describe your part easily you don't need to upload a cutting file or diagram. For example "Please cut me a square 200mm x 200mm with a 16mm hole in each corner, the center of each hole should be 20mm from the edge."
  • Cutting diagram upload: If you have a cut file such as a DXF, DWG, PDF or AI file then please upload it here for us to cut from, alternatively a simple part diagram can be uploaded in image form, please ensure this has all required dimensions on for us to make your cut file from.

    FAQ

    Can you powder coat my parts?
    Neil Bowen
    Yes, we have a in house powder coating department. As long as you parts has a hole or two to hang it from with metal hooks, then we can powder coat it for you. Please contact us to discuss your requirements with this service. 
    Can you galvanise my parts?
    Neil Bowen
    We do not offer this service at present I am sorry to say. We can ship parts directly to a galvanising company of your choosing of course.
    Can you engrave?
    Neil Bowen
    We don't engrave directly on our main laser, but we do have a laser engraving machine. This can engrave light or deep on all metals up to a maximum size of 154 x 154mm. It offers great detail too, please contact us if you would like a quote to have your parts engraved. 
    I don't have a cut file to upload to you, can you still cut my parts?
    Neil Bowen
    Yes, this is not a problem. If the part is relatively simple then there is no extra charge for us to create the cut file for you from a drawing. Even a photograph of a sketch on the back of an envelope is fine, just make sure it has all the measurements written on it for us to create an accurate cut file from.If you need something complicated designing then please contact us to discuss. As a general rule of thumb if you have 10-15 or less simple cut outs then we would class this as a simple file, above this a complicated one.
    What finish will I get on my stainless steel?
    Neil Bowen
    By default;6mm and below will have a 2B Cold rolled finish, this is a smooth dull grey surface.8mm and above will have a HR Hot rolled finish, this is a semi smooth very slightly rough surface.We can brush your parts, please add this requirement to your order if you require it. There is no extra charge for this.
    Can you polish my parts?
    Neil Bowen
    We don't offer polishing, or mirror polished finishes at present I am sorry to report.
    Can I get a VAT Invoice?
    Neil Bowen
    Yes, this should be emailed to you automatically once your order ships. If you don't receive it then please contact us so we can fix this for you.
    Can I get material certificates?
    Neil Bowen
    Yes, this is not a problem. Please drop us an email once you have ordered, or add this request to your production notes and we will email a copy over once they have been cut.
    Can I return custom cut parts if I change my mind?
    Neil Bowen
    Unfortunately this is not possible as we will have to dispose of them. If we of course have produced them incorrectly then we can discuss replacements or a refund as is suitable.
    If I pop in to discuss what I need do you have biscuits?
    Neil Bowen
    Yes of course! Please contact us ahead to let us know you are coming and we'll have the kettle warm and a decent supply of biscuits!
    The price for 1 part is quite high, why is this?
    Neil Bowen
    We believe our prices to be competitive, especially as most companies have a minimum order amount of £100 or more. There is a setup charge built into pricing for all orders, as you select a higher quantity in pack the price per part will drop rapidly. If you feel there is a mistake with our pricing tool still then please do get in touch to discuss and see if we can assist you still. 
    Are you sure I can just order on your website?
    Neil Bowen
    Absolutely! If your parts fit our requirements then we're happy for you to order online and sit back and relax. In very rare circumstances where a part turns out to not be suitable we will contact you straight away to discuss.

    Who we are

    Among the peaceful hills with the odd ball of wool trotting around, we're buzzing away creating things we feel are special.

    Lakeland Steel (Laser Factory Ltd) is a laser cutting company based in the Lake District, Cumbria. All our products are designed and produced here. Among the peaceful hills with the odd ball of wool trotting around, we're buzzing away creating things we feel are special. We are just as happy cutting customers parts, or producing our own products. If you need some metal and don't or can't create it yourself, then we're happy to help.

    Towards the end of 2014 I spotted a stainless steel key ring someone had made on my social media and I thought it looked amazing. Almost immediately I thought, well how hard could it be to make metal items myself?

    After a few evenings of slightly over ambitious hunting on the internet I decided that I could just about afford a CNC Plasma machine. This particular machine was an air plasma and it uses compressed air and electricity to make an incredibly hot plasma cutting arc that moves over the metal plate.

    6 weeks later and the new machine was installed in a barn section a little bigger than a single garage and ready to run. It quickly became clear that an air plasma does not cut quite fine enough to make key rings and I should have done a few more days research! And as a result new projects were born that the machine was suitable for.

    The first item I needed was a drain cover for a down pipe cover on the old house I lived in. Nothing was available in the size I needed (12.5" x 11.9") so I cut one myself. Spray painted it with Black Hammerite paint and thought I may as well list them on eBay. Within an hour we sold one, and I panicked as the paint wasn't even dry yet in the make shift spray painting "zone".

    We've not looked back since and quickly ventured in to metal wall art which also started to fly off the shelves faster than expected.

    It was not long before we had to move to a larger industrial premises and the closest destination available at the time was in the west Cumbrian coastal town of Millom. This is now where we produce all of our products and house our machinery. Millom has a long history of metal works and although the Iron works are now gone we feel like we've ended up in the right spot.

    In a blink of an eye there were simply not enough hours in the day and we started employing some incredible staff and had to hang up the one man band hat. The team has only got stronger over the years, and everyone enjoys the process of bringing our creations to life. And I have to admit it's true that often someone else can do something better than you can yourself, even if it was a little daunting handing over control of parts of the process to someone else.

    Eventually we bought with the help of a good friend and new business partner our first laser and a much chunkier HD XPR Plasma cutter. This now allowed us to cut the keyrings that started our journey as well as improving the cut quality of all our metal art work.

    The next step was to escape from the mess and hassle of wet painting our products. We installed a high end powder coating booth, spray gun and oven. This gives us a better finish, and a huge variety of finishes too. But the biggest advantage, we can now paint and ship items the same day instead of waiting for a week or two for the wet paint to be dry enough.

    A few years passed of non stop ideas and projects before we upgraded to a powerful 6kw laser and we were finally plasma free in 2020. All our metals up to 30mm can now be cut by laser.

    Our laser cutters offer by far the best cut, and the machine we now use was an unimaginable dream back in 2014.

    Finally in 2021 we expanded into Jewellery with the addition of some special polishing machines, and a ultra fine laser cutter & engraver for the jewellery. It can only cut up to 154mm x 154mm in size but offers really incredible cut quality and detail. We've started making exciting new products here and so far everything we've been offering has again caught us out by selling quicker than we thought they might. At least we're kept on our toes!

    As it stands today we've learnt an awful lot and know how to extract great products, art, projects and customers parts from a sheet of metal with ease.
    Our quality, tolerances and repeatability are excellent, and we're excited to work for either a one off part or a bulk order of thousands of items.
