It's been 10 years since Luke was making cables on his driveway with Tom Chubb, and here we are today, TEN years in! SRS would like to thank the support of their A-team and their kind gifts and words today. It made tool box all the better and the final push to Christmas all worth it.
SRS also values the working relationships it has with all its suppliers as it wouldn't be possible without them. Here's to all the iconic urban landscapes SRS has contributed to over the years for our clients, and the interesting, challenging and award winning ideas and designs we get to do. We love it.

Meat the Team #2 - Alice Tempest was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. Despite her academic prowess in school, she had a passion for travel and winter sports. After learning to sail in school, Alice embarked on a life alternating between the mountains and the sea, traveling worldwide. Over her 10-year yachting career, she rose to the position of Chief Stewardess and Purser, spending time in Europe, the Caribbean, Asia, and the Pacific.
Although posessing a natural aptitude for figures, Alice was drawn to a nursing career and earned her Bachelor of Nursing from the University of Auckland in 2011. She worked as a cardio-thoracic surgical nurse for most of her career, with a two-year stint in plastics. In her spare time, Alice also earned a diploma in Bookkeeping, which she used to manage the finances for SRS Group.
By 2018, Alice was balancing motherhood, her nursing career, and accounts administration at SRS Group. Her talent for numbers, business acumen, and organizational skills led her to take on a more significant role at SRS, where she now serves as CFO. Her responsibilities include overseeing all financial transactions, business forecasts, and budgets, as well as supporting the SRS team with project management and quantity surveying.
Although Alice works full-time at SRS, she still picks up shifts in cardio-thoracics for fun on the weekends. She enjoys spending time with her young family, traveling, snow sports, and sipping prosecco in beautiful locations.

Kiwi artist and film maker Mandalina Stanisich has a passion for raising awareness on social issues and SRS were delighted to be contacted to assist with her latest installation.
World Elder Abuse week was held 15-22nd June and is a global awareness campaign. With Radius Care in New Zealand, and Age UK in the United Kingdom, Mandalina was supported in creating a bright, crocheted, dummy that hung from Waitematā Britomart’s main train terminal between the 10th and 16th June. The thought provoking art, represents our need to catch the elderly before they fall, it challenges you to look up and take action against abuse, loneliness, and neglect.

The take away message from Radius:

🩵 Check in on your elderly neighbours and loved ones.
👀 Educate yourself about the signs of elder abuse.
🙌 Advocate for policies that protect our seniors.

SRS’s scope included the installation and removal of the suspended art, utilising our expertise in rigging and height access work, with a focus on safety.

SRS Group appreciates the varied and exciting work we get to be a part of, and a great reflection of that are the projects undertaken at Auckland Zoo . SRS was contracted by NZ Strong Group to be part of the multi award winning South East Asian Jungle Track Project which is featured in the new Business North edition from Waterford Press, with our balustrade front and centre on the cover!
SRS was challenged to design, manufacture and install a number of projects from the back of house tigers habitat, to the otter back of house habitat, rotating tiger doors on the tiger bridge, a green wall and the weaving balustrade on the Jungle Track to name a few!! Most of these projects used Carl Stahl ARC GmbH 's X-Tend Mesh from Tensile Architecture .
Congratulations to NZ Strong for an outstanding project, 20 years, and the legacy you have created for

Its been a while since you've seen some faces so why don't we start with a re-introduction of our founder and Managing Director, Luke...

Luke Tempest, originally from Queensland, Australia, has called New Zealand home since sailing there from Europe in 2007. His career began in the marine industry, where he raced boats along the Australian East Coast, taught sailing, and ventured into the super yachting world in Europe in 1999. Starting as a deckhand, Luke quickly climbed the yachting ranks, becoming an engineer, First Mate, and ultimately Captain of a 142-foot sail yacht at the age of 31, after logging thousands of sea miles worldwide.

When the call of land and family life grew stronger, Luke transitioned to yacht rigging and took on the role of Workshop Manager at Doyle’s Yacht Rigging. His extensive experience in sailing, engineering, and rigging perfectly positioned him to establish his own company, Structural Rigging Solutions (SRS), in 2014. With the support of his close friend Tom Chubb, Luke spent the early years educating the construction industry about the intricacies of rigging and introducing superyacht-quality service to New Zealand’s commercial, civil, and residential sectors.

As SRS expanded, Luke recognized the need to control quality more effectively and launched an in-house fabrication division. This move led to the rebranding of the company as SRS Group NZ Ltd in 2017. From a humble beginning as a two-person operation, SRS Group has grown to employ 20 dedicated professionals.
With over a decade in the architectural rigging business and nearly 20 years in yachting, Luke continues to push the boundaries of design and innovation. He has mentored numerous riggers in the art of tensile mesh and continues to set the standard for the industry. He has even visited the Carl Stahl factory in Germany to deepen his understanding of products and manufacturing processes.
Luke is married and has two daughters. In his free time, he enjoys rocking out to Parkway Drive, BBQing, and relaxing with a rum.

Te Ara ō Whakatū – The Pathway of Nelson is the City Centre Spatial Plan to reimagine Nelson’s city centre over the next 30 years. The aim is to transform the city centre through 8 key actions. The addition of catenary lighting on the pedestrianised Upper Trafalgar Street can be attributed to contributing to at least four of these, notably the ‘Streets for People’ and ‘Great Places’ actions.

SRS was contracted by Walkspace to install Ronstan Tensile Architecture's catenary stainless steel 316 cables and fitting for the lights to hang from on the iconic Trafalgar Street in the heart of Nelson. They were installed in perfect timing for the Mayor of Nelson Judene Edgar to switch on the lights for Te Ramaroa – Light Nelson in 2021.

SRS Group was delighted to partner with Ronstan Tensile Architecture in 2021, to install one of New Zealand’s most striking commercial catenary lighting systems. Located just a couple of hours south of Auckland, is one of New Zealand’s most popular summer destinations and is located next to summer hot spot, .

Tauranga City Council contracted Ronstan, along with architects Isthmus Group and Engineers Tonkin and Taylor to install a commercial catenary lighting system on Wharf Street – a precinct in central Tauranga which was set up to bring people together, creating an improved connection between the coastline and the city centre. Resembling clouds moving from the city to the ocean, the catenary lighting system invites a connection between land and sea in recognition of the city’s historical relationship with the wharf and the harbour’s edge.

Ronstan brought their considerable expertise to the project, developing lighting concepts that would be both visually attractive and structurally sound under various load conditions. You can read more about the construction and materials used on the Ronstan website.

SRS was brought in as a trusted partner to help with installation of the catenary lighting system, bringing our expertise in rigging to help ensure the system was installed safely.

You can read more about Catenary Lighting Systems in a whitepaper by Ronstan entitled “Lighting the urban night“.

SRS Group is proud to share that the South Frames / Putahi Whakatetonga project in Christchurch has won The Civic and Urban Design category at the 2024 New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects Tuia Pito Ora (NZILA) awards! The regeneration of the area with 20,000m2 pedestrian friendly laneways, has been restorative to the region after the devastating earthquakes, creating mixed use precincts for both community and commercial growth.

SRS loves working nationally and enjoyed going to Christchurch a while back to complete different stages of green wall support systems in the greenway from Manchester St to the West of Montreal St plus the Taum Street Catenary Lighting for our client. Obviously the Carl Stahl ARC GmbH X-TendTM mesh from Ronstan Tensile Architecture was the best choice being the most technically rated and only ETA approved tensile mesh around, bringing absolute quality stainless steel components to this landscape. The addition of catenary lighting using Ronstan cables and fittings is another speciality of ours and we appreciate the vision of the Landscape Architects Jasmax in association with LandLAB_ to bring all the design elements together. Congratulations on your award!

In 2023 SRS installed a Ronstan catenary cable net system, engineered through Ronstan Tensile Architecture and Tensys with Taupo Council architects. SRS was engaged by Force Engineering limited who were manufacturing and installing the catenary support posts.
This standout lighting configuration was formed by 23 diagrid pattern cables crossing the street and pedestrianised zone.

No wonder the Taupo Town Centre Transformation (TTCT) has been shortlisted for the 2024 Resene NZILA Awards in Civic and Urban Design! Taupo lakefront is truely transformed and SRS have loved being a small part of it.

Sneak peak to see what SRS Group was up to last year in downtown Auckland.

Wynyard Quarter continues to be restored and transformed to create new public spaces as part of the Te Ara Tukutuku Plan, and after almost 100 years as a working wharf, Wynyard Wharf is open to the public for the first time. Located between the North Wharf restaurants and Jellicoe Harbour Breakwater, you will now find a C3-C5 engineered, code compliant and architecturally designed balustrade to keep the public safe from the water’s edge, while creating a beautifully industrial space as a destination, to host outdoor events, take a walk, or even just to look back at the cityscape.

SRS Group was delighted to work on this project for our client Eke Panuku Development Auckland with Alta Consulting, Novare Design, and LandLAB

Technical Details: Carl Stahl X-Tend 1.5mm x 40mm aperture raw stainless mesh as infill to 20mm stainless steel balustrade frames, capped with Purple Heart timber handrail, complimented by neighbouring solid steel painted panels in Resene’s ‘Wynyard’. Plus new pontoon gates, with square profile XT3 concealed perimeter return panels. Over 700 lineal meters of balustrade and gates!

But there’s no ‘I’ in team so thanks are due to Ronstan Tensile Architecture, Carl Stahl ARC GmbH , PFS Engineering and Contrax Greenscapes .

Throw Back Thursday to a horizontal wire infill project at the top of Maungawhau / Mount Eden. SRS gets to work at some pretty spectacular sites, and on top of a volcano with these views is one of them!

SRS receives lots of requests for horizontal wire infills in a residential space, however Building Code limits its use to spaces where a child 6 years and under would always be supervised by an adult due to climbing risks, therefore in a residential spaces vertical, 'V' wire configurations, or a mesh with appropriate aperture size are what's required in a residential application.

Before Christmas SRS was engaged by Contrax Greenscapes to fabricate a 7.1m high totem with an etched logo, laser cut outs, and with dual powder coating colours for the Karaka Village development. Complimenting the totem were two large tree surrounds, and in February one of our team was able to take some great photos of the items in their new home. We think its looks stunning!
