I've got that much 3mm sheet steel loafing around my garage, you'd have to cut it yourself though (I just mark it out and use the angle grinder - not accurate but good enough for most things....)

Carefully mark out, cut the outer shape with your hacksaw, chain drill out the centre squares and file to shape - you don't need companies unless you need a large number made up

It's in centimetres not milimetres. 1550mm x 800mm is a long way to saw 3mm plate with a hacksaw
