Industries

Built for every surface. Every trade. Every shop.

Slabr™ is the operating system for custom fabrication — where every job is different, every material prices differently, and every delivery is a deadline. Eight trades. One platform.

Looking for your business type instead of your material? See Solutions by business type — joinery, fit-out, furniture, manufacturers and more.

Your trade · your workflow · your system

Eight trades, priced and tracked the way each one actually works.

Every industry below has its own quoting logic, production rhythm and cash flow. Slabr handles all of them in one shared job record.

🪵

Timber & Joinery

Bespoke cabinets, kitchens and furniture at any complexity.

Timber pricing is notoriously messy — board feet, sheet goods, solid wood, edge banding, hardware and finishing all priced differently. Slabr's quote engine handles mixed UOMs in one job, so a full kitchen prices in minutes. Every cut list, material draw-down and stage tracked together.

How Slabr helps

Quote engine with configurable UOM per line item. Production stages map to your exact workflow — cut, edge, machine, assemble, finish, deliver.

  • Mixed board-foot & sheet-good pricing
  • Hardware and fitting cost tracking
  • Finishing schedules and lead times

🪨

Stone, Quartz & Granite

Countertops, waterfall edges, templating and install — priced right.

Stone studios live and die by accurate slab pricing. Over-quote and you lose the job. Under-quote and you lose money on every slab. Slabr's wastage engine prices usable yield from raw slabs, prices edges as line items, and tracks template-to-install with QR hand-off at every stage.

How Slabr helps

Slab UOM pricing, wastage % per material, edge add-on catalogue, QR scan at template / fabricate / polish / install.

  • m² pricing with real wastage
  • Edge profile addon quoting
  • Template and install stage tracking

🪟

Glass & Glazing

Windows, shopfronts, frameless panels and aluminium-glass combos.

Glass is priced by m², but breakage is priced by heartbreak. Slabr builds wastage and breakage allowance into the quote so margin is protected before a pane is cut. Combine glass m² with aluminium linear-metre pricing on the same job — both UOMs roll up into one client quote.

How Slabr helps

Dual UOM quoting (m² glass + lin.m extrusion), breakage wastage %, per-opening line items, stages: cut glass → cut frame → assemble → seal → install.

  • m² glass pricing + breakage buffer
  • Aluminium extrusion linear metre costing
  • Per-opening and per-frame quoting

🔩

Aluminium Windows & Doors

Extrusion cutting, frame assembly, glazing, hardware and sealing.

Aluminium fabricators deal with extrusion offcuts, hardware multiplied by dozens of openings, and crews who are never on schedule. Slabr structures quotes by opening — window, door, shopfront — with extrusion lengths, glass, hardware and labour rolled per unit, then summed for the project.

How Slabr helps

Opening-based quote structure, linear metre extrusion pricing, frame-level assembly tracking, crew scheduling against install dates.

  • Per-opening structured pricing
  • Extrusion offcut waste management
  • Multi-opening project scheduling

⚙️

Metal Fabrication

Steel structures, brackets, custom metalwork and powder coating.

Jobbing shops run on kg, hours and chaos. Slabr brings order — kg-based material pricing, operation-level labour costing (cut, weld, grind, coat), and QR-scanned production so you know where every job sits at any moment. Stop losing money on underpriced welding time.

How Slabr helps

kg UOM pricing, operation costing per step, production stage QR scanning, powder coat and finish as line-item addons.

  • kg-based steel pricing with off-cuts
  • Welding and grinding time costing
  • Powder coating and surface treatment quoting

🛋️

Custom Furniture

Design-led studios with per-project pricing and curated finishes.

Custom furniture studios don't sell catalogue items — they sell bespoke pieces with finish options, fabric selections and lead times that clients negotiate. Slabr's quote engine supports configurable variants, with a client portal that approves, picks finishes and signs digitally — without an email attachment.

How Slabr helps

Quote line variants, finish/material option catalogues, client portal with digital sign-off, production scheduling from approved quote.

  • Per-project pricing with options and variants
  • Finish and fabric selection tracking
  • Client approval without back-and-forth email

🏗️

Commercial Fit-Out

Multi-trade projects, scheduling, subcontractors and site coordination.

Commercial fit-out is the most complex job type in fabrication — multiple trades, subcontractors, a main contractor breathing down your neck, retention clauses, and a site that isn't ready when you arrive. Slabr's project layer handles milestone billing, multi-stage scheduling and retention so you never bill incorrectly.

How Slabr helps

Multi-stage project invoicing, subcontractor job assignments, retention ledger, site-readiness flags, milestone sign-off in the client portal.

  • Milestone and progress billing
  • Subcontractor cost and scheduling
  • Retention tracking and release

🎨

Surface Finishing

Painting, coating, polishing and sealing as a standalone trade.

Surface finishers work on other people's products — so job tracking is doubly important. You need to know what arrived, the condition it was in, what treatment was applied, and what left the door. Slabr's intake and QR tracking gives finishing shops a receipt-to-dispatch audit trail with photo evidence to protect against comeback claims.

How Slabr helps

Job intake with photo capture, treatment stage QR scanning, coating spec per job, dispatch confirmation with client-facing delivery note.

  • Intake condition recording with photos
  • Treatment and coating specification tracking
  • Dispatch evidence and client sign-off

Cross-industry truth

The same six problems kill every trade.

Doesn’t matter if you cut stone, weld steel or bend aluminium. The business problems are almost identical — and Slabr solves all of them in one connected loop.

Inaccurate quotes kill margin

You price from gut feel, and somewhere between the quote and the invoice you have lost 8–15% on every job. Slabr prices from live material catalogues, applies your wastage rates, and locks margin in before the client signs.

Zero visibility on the production floor

You walk the floor to know where jobs are. When you are not there, nothing gets updated. Slabr puts a QR code on every job card — your team scans at each stage and you see status on your phone from anywhere.

Cash flow blindness

Work done. Invoices sent. But no clear view of what is outstanding, what is overdue, what is collected. Slabr tracks every invoice, payment and balance — statements one click away, sent automatically.

Quotes that cannot be found

A client asks about a quote you did six months ago and you are digging through email. Slabr stores every quote, revision and approval in a searchable system. One-click conversion to job. Version history intact.

Disconnected tools

Quotes in Excel, jobs on a whiteboard, invoices in a separate package, timesheets on paper. None of them talk. Slabr is one system — quote flows to job, job to invoice, invoice to payment. Every number reconciles.

No client self-service

Every client question lands on you. Slabr’s portal gives clients a branded read-only view of their quotes, orders and invoices — and lets them approve and pay deposits without picking up the phone.

One platform · every department · zero integration pain

Sales, operations, finance and intelligence on one record.
