Chequered Plate

Typical uses

Uses for Chequered Plate

  • Stair treads and landings
  • Walkways and access platforms
  • Trailer and loading bodies
  • Workshop and plant flooring
  • Ramps and kerb plates

Thickness is quoted on the base plate, not over the pattern. A 3 mm chequered plate measures nearer 4.5 mm across the raised diamonds — worth knowing before you cut a rebate for it.

For outdoor walkways, budget for galvanising or a decent paint system. Bare chequered plate in Karachi humidity will start showing rust in the pattern within a season.

How it works

From enquiry to delivery

Four steps, no forms and no account to open.

1

Send the size

WhatsApp the size, grade and tonnage. A photo of the drawing or the old challan works just as well.

2

Get the rate

A per-ton or per-piece figure the same day, with freight quoted separately so you can see both.

3

Confirm and weigh

Material is pulled, tagged and crossed over the weighbridge. The weight on the bridge is the weight on the challan.

4

Loaded and gone

Karachi same or next day where stock allows. Up-country dispatch to Lahore, Multan, Islamabad and beyond.

Questions

Before you order

Most sizes on this page are held. Where something is not, we source it from the mill or the market and tell you the day it lands rather than promising same-day and going quiet.

There is no formal minimum. We sell single lengths and full trailers, though the rate improves with tonnage and freight makes very small out-of-city orders expensive.

Yes, on most sections. Send the cutting list with the enquiry and the cut lengths are quoted with the material rather than added as a surprise afterwards.

WhatsApp the size, grade and tonnage to 0334 8398777. You will have a workable number the same day, and a firm one once we confirm what is on the floor.

Message the size, grade and tonnage and you will have a rate back the same day. Rates move with the mill and the dollar, so we confirm on the day rather than publish a figure that goes stale by the afternoon.
