Steel Stud Framing for Commercial Fitouts in Perth
Steel stud framing is the backbone of every commercial interior. Whether you're building partition walls in an office, framing out a warehouse office, or creating fire-rated separations in a medical centre, the quality of the steel stud work determines everything that follows — lining, flushing, painting, and the final finish.
At Crafted Up, steel stud framing is one of our core services. We install 0.55, 0.75 and 1.15 BMT steel stud systems for commercial projects across the Perth metropolitan area.
Why Steel Studs for Commercial Projects?
Steel stud framing is the standard for commercial construction in Australia for good reason:
Non-combustible — meets fire-rating requirements without additional treatment
Dimensionally stable — won't warp, shrink, or twist like timber
Termite-proof — critical in Perth's climate
Lightweight — easier to handle on multi-level sites
Consistent — factory-rolled to exact dimensions every time
For commercial fitouts, steel studs are typically paired with plasterboard lining systems from Gyprock or CSR, creating partitions that meet NCC requirements for fire, acoustic, and structural performance.
What We Install
Our steel stud framing scope typically includes:
Partition wall framing — 64mm, 76mm, and 92mm steel studs in 0.55, 0.75 and 1.15 BMT
Head and base track — fixed to slab and structure
Deflection heads — for multi-storey buildings where structural movement needs accommodation
Steel battens to tilt panels — top-hat channels and furring for lining to concrete tilt-up walls
Door and window framing — reinforced steel stud jambs and headers
Fire-rated wall systems — double-layer plasterboard on steel studs to achieve FRL ratings
Acoustic wall systems — insulated stud walls with acoustic plasterboard for sound separation
How We Work
We don't just frame and walk away. Our process includes:
Pre-install inspection via Fieldwire — we check the slab, structure, and services before we start
Framing — studs installed plumb, straight, and to plan
Coordination — we work around M&E services, leaving access for electricians and plumbers before lining
Lining — Gyprock plasterboard fixed to the steel stud framework
Flushing — all joints taped and flushed to a Level 4 finish, paint-ready
