  • William street Privacy screens

    William street Privacy screens

    Tek1 has successfully completed the commercial project for the reputed organisation in Australia.

    The scope of work involves providing privacy screens and their supports. We have encountered challenges with the aluminum screen bends during the project.

    Initially, we received instructions that each screen should have a bend in all four directions, which we modeled and sent for approval.

    However, the client later requested that we split the top and bottom of the screen and provide separate pieces to be welded to the main screen.
