What we do best
⚙️ Repairs & Fleet Maintenance
When something breaks, we fix it fast. We know the cost of delays, so our workshop is designed for rapid turnaround—without ever compromising on quality. From complex welding to general maintenance, we’ve earned a reputation for efficient service that gets you back on the road.
🔩 Custom Manufacturing
Can’t find the part you need? We’ll make it. From custom truck accessories to completely one-off components, our Manufacturing Division specialises in fabricating the fittings and features your truck or trailer needs to work harder and look sharper. If it doesn’t exist—we’ll build it.
🧠 Advanced Design Solutions
Big ideas need sharp minds and the right tools. At Ten4 Design, our in-house team works with the latest CAD software including SolidWorks, DraftSight, and ProNest to bring complex, large-scale projects to life with conceptual drawings, 3D modelling, and precise cutting profiles.
We’ve designed:
-
The stage for the 2011 Rugby World Cup
-
A lightweight, high-durability Pump Station Safety Hatch now used by councils nationwide
-
A 5-lane Barrier Trailer for the Auckland motorway network
From design through to manufacture, we can manage the full process or collaborate with your preferred builder.
