Company Profile

Established in 1974, Standrite has been in business for almost forty years. Managing Director Scott Sommerville is the quintessential success story riding his bike to work as the labourer/ factory hand at the age of 16 after school and on weekends. Once gaining his Higher School Diploma, he worked at Standrite as a part time Sales Representative during further studies. Ten years later he was appointed Manager and after twenty years bought the business continuing to work here to this day.
Standrite has evolved over the years from a modest fencing business dealing predominantly with chainwire and weldmesh to a leading architectural metal worker specialising in tubular and wrought iron fencing, driveway gates, front entry gates, side gates, steel and glass pool fencing, privacy and sun screens. Standrite is also a leading authority on balustrades and handrails. We have grown to offer our clients the latest technology in gate automation for swing and sliding gates. Our diverse range of products is complemented by our proud partnership as an agent for Loc-it screens and Malibu aluminium shades. Our products are suited to all applications from residential to commercial and are frequently sourced by builders, developers, government departments, private and public schools, child care centres, universities, retirement villages and body corporate companies.

- The Werribee Mansion
- Cameron Close Retirement Village
