Free Online Tools and Resources for UK Fabricators, Welders and Steelwork Businesses

17/05/2026

Fabora is being built as more than just a software product. The aim is to create a practical online platform for UK steel fabricators, site welders, steel erectors, workshop managers and metalworking businesses that want useful tools, guides and software in one place. Many fabrication and welding businesses deal with the same problems every week. They need to prepare RAMS, estimate steel weights, plan cutting lists, manage workshop records, keep track of equipment, understand job paperwork and organise site information clearly. The Fabora website includes free online tools and resources designed around these real trade problems. These resources are built to help businesses save time, reduce repeated work and make everyday planning easier. Fabora’s free tools are aimed at practical workshop and site use. They include calculators and planning aids for steelwork, fabrication, welding and related metal trades. These tools are designed to be simple, fast and useful, without forcing users into complicated systems. The resources section also includes guides covering RAMS, fabrication paperwork, welding business processes, steelwork planning, site documentation and workshop record keeping. The goal is to help UK metalworking businesses find clear, relevant information without having to search through generic business advice that does not fit their trade. Fabora RAMS is the first paid software product on the platform. It helps businesses create editable risk assessments and method statements using saved company details, reusable libraries, HSE-informed templates and professional PDF exports. LEV Ready by Fabora is also being developed to help workshops organise LEV assets, service history, inspection dates, maintenance notes, documents and QR-based asset access. Fabora is built with real fabrication and welding experience behind it. The platform is focused on practical tools that help trade businesses work more efficiently, stay better organised and reduce time spent on repeated paperwork.
