Our steel frame plant at Gregory Hills was set up to supply our own projects. From October 2026 it also offers contract manufacturing: builders, detailers and framing companies send FRAMECAD production files, and LP Frames roll-forms, assembles and packs the frames, ready for collection at the gate.
The same production checks we use for our own homes apply to every customer job. Details and pricing at lpframes.au.
In response to Orange City Council's requests for information, we have submitted a revised masterplan for Botanica. The new layout has 41 two-storey townhouses on three internal streets, with a community park around the mature trees at the centre of the site and landscaped reserves along the boundaries.
The application, DA 172/2026, remains under assessment. See the project.
We have lodged a development application with Orange City Council for a townhouse community at 91 Northern Distributor Road, beside the Orange Botanic Gardens. The application was prepared with HDC Planning and a full consultant team covering traffic, noise, biodiversity, civil engineering and landscape.
LAP Construction is on site in Windradyne, Bathurst, building 20 homes across 16 lots: 12 houses and 4 duplexes. All homes are approved under complying development and framed in galvanised steel by LP Frames.
Rather than buy frames from others, we decide to manufacture them ourselves. LP Frames Pty Ltd signs for a FRAMECAD roll-forming line, the industry standard for light-gauge steel framing, so every home in our projects can be framed in-house to our own drawings and quality checks.
The line is manufactured to order and shipped from China in August, ahead of the factory set-up in Gregory Hills.
Contracts exchanged on 16 lots on Mulholland Parkway and Keightley Avenue: the start of Wyndradyne Collection.
Early feedback from council on the Botanica masterplan sets the direction for the design team and the consultant studies that follow.
Contracts exchanged on 91 Northern Distributor Road, a 17,630 m² site beside the Orange Botanic Gardens and the Adventure Playground. It becomes our first development: the future Botanica. Settlement followed in August 2024.
Lares and Penates Pty Ltd is established in Sydney to develop, build and frame new homes across New South Wales.
