Have you looked on the Wickes site? They do a range of galvanised steel or
aluminium flat bars or L section although they seem to be hidden away in
the fire door section! eg:

The larger B and Q store also do both flat and angle aluminium and steel.

I've used the Wickes ally checker plate angle for exactly that job.
