Framing in a Factory NZ

In this video, we dive into the framing process. We start at the Prenail factory and watch as they assemble around a house of frames a day. We follow the frames to the site and watch as they are installed. If you like this kind of content consider subscribing.

I remember going to the prenail factory down the road from M10 in Upper Hutt when doing a block course, you would have been at school Josh (kindly haha) . Prior to it being a prenail plant I went there once to look at a Valiant for sale and there was a considerable horticultural enterprise in operation in the building... that would have been the nineties, guy was like how you get past the dog?. Might be showing my age. Remember the guy showing us that the machine to put the gangnails on could squash a piece of 4x2, interesting.

Hey OFW, I admire you putting yourself out there, we are not looking to sponsor any foreign workers

[@whatwouldbenice]

How common do you reckon it is done this way Vs framing onsite these days?

[@okiedokieoner]

pretty much all new builts are pre nail, reno's and extensions tend to be framed on site.

[@whatwouldbenice]

@@okiedokieoner okie-dokie thanks 👍

[@nzbuilder]

Hey Id say 90% of new builds, if not more, are pre nail

[@rennie684]

it's more easy if frame factory print a 3d plan for builders.

[@nzbuilder]
