Prototype & One-Off Builds
Start with a drawing, photo or idea. We discuss what it needs to do and develop an agreed fabrication scope before work begins.
You do not need to find your idea in a catalogue. If it involves custom metalwork, a practical mechanism or a structure that needs to be made, send it through and we will discuss whether we can build it.




Built around your requirements
Prototypes, one-off builds and unusual ideas. Bring a photo, drawing or a problem to solve.
Start with a drawing, photo or idea. We discuss what it needs to do and develop an agreed fabrication scope before work begins.
Purpose-built frames, display structures, mobile business ideas and workshop solutions that do not fit a standard product category.
Projects that bring several skills together, from modifying existing equipment to combining steelwork, storage and outdoor structures.
A useful starting point
Send a photo, drawing or description. Explain the problem, the approximate size, how it will be used and your budget or deadline if known. A rough idea is enough to start the conversation.
Send your project on WhatsAppBefore you enquire
Select a question to reveal the answer.
A sketch, reference photo or clear explanation is enough for an initial discussion. Measurements and a more detailed specification can follow once the idea is understood.
We first assess the requirements, practicality and available capabilities. Sending an idea starts a conversation; feasibility, scope, cost and timing must be agreed before a build is confirmed.
Kenya Custom Builds handles this work from its workshop in Kitengela. Send photographs, measurements and the intended use so we can assess the project and explain the next steps.
Yes. Each project is discussed around the required dimensions, materials, operating conditions and intended use. Feasibility, scope, price and timing are agreed before work begins.
Send clear photographs, approximate measurements, your location and a description of what the finished project must do. A workshop inspection or site visit may be required before a final quote is confirmed.
The workshop is based in Kitengela near Nairobi. Projects in other parts of Kenya can be discussed, with transport, site access and installation requirements considered in the quote.
Where we work
We are based in Kitengela, Kajiado County, and handle special projects for clients in Kitengela, Nairobi, Kajiado, Machakos, Mombasa and Nakuru, as well as the rest of Kenya. One-off jobs are discussed individually, so tell us what you need and where the project is. Include your location in your enquiry and we will confirm what is practical for your site.
