    All components are mechanically fixed to the substrates or themselves, with non-corrosive metal fixings exclusively using:

    • Copper;
    • Brass; 
    • 316 Stainless Steel (Marine Grade).

    At no time do we stick or adhere stonework to a substrate.  All stone is pinned. 

    A single monument can have a minimum of 14 fixing points. These fixing points require holes into, and sometimes through, the stone components being fixed, to anchor them properly to the substrate (Concrete) to avoid movement after installation.

    Fixing holes are achieved by diamond tooling, reducing the incidence of cracking which may manifest from holes drilled by percussion machinery.
