At Alted Engineering, we believe in bringing ideas to reality.

Based in the beachside town of Tairua, Alted Engineering delivers engineering design, fabrication, and installation services for projects across the Coromandel and Waikato. We specialise in structural steel, custom fabrication, and bespoke builds — from staircases, balustrades, gates, and fencing to heavy-duty trailers and large-scale commercial installs.

Owner and engineer Bennet Gage-Brown brings over 20 years of experience in heavy transport and machine design, leading our team with a design-first approach. Using industry-leading SOLIDWORKS 3D modelling software, we ensure every project is accurate, practical, and built to last.

At Alted, we believe in bringing ideas to reality. From the first sketch to the final install, we combine technical excellence with hands-on craftsmanship to deliver steel solutions that work. That’s the Alted way.

Fit for purpose

We define the problem and think about the end use. We deliver solutions that not only look good, but perform beyond your expectations.  

Fresh take

We bring a fresh take to engineering, blending traditional processes with forward-thinking. We approach problems from a different perspective, and pay attention to the finishing touches. 

Finish it

We get things done. We commit to seeing projects through to the end. We love making cool products, and seeing them do what we said they would do.

Led by Bennet Gage-Brown

Bennet Gage-Brown is a mechanical design engineer with more than 20 years of experience in heavy transport and specialised equipment. Before founding Alted Engineering, Bennet led the design office at TRT, where he specialised in bespoke design for cranes, trailers, and purpose-built vehicles.

His portfolio includes:

  • 18m, 24m, and 30m insulated EWPs designed for glove and barrier live line work

  • A 10t truck-mounted crane with auger borer attachments

  • A 28t pick-and-carry articulated crane, compliant for both New Zealand and Australia

  • A range of low loader transporters

This depth of experience now underpins Alted’s work across structural steel, custom fabrication, and specialist builds.

Bennet is committed to process improvement, timely delivery, and responsive communication — values that define the Alted way.

Originally from Patetonga on the Hauraki Plains, Bennet studied at the University of Waikato before relocating to Tairua in 2019 with his wife Jacqui Gage-Brown and their three boys. The family had long been regular holidaymakers in Tairua and are proud to call it home.

From residential homes to light commercial projects, we deliver structural steel supply, fabrication, and installation. Our work includes frames, staircases, balustrades, gates, fencing, and coastal steelwork — built tough and finished clean.

With over 20 years of engineering design expertise, we bring precision and practicality to every project. Using SOLIDWORKS, we deliver custom trailers, specialised equipment, and bespoke architectural steelwork — designed for accuracy and built to last.
