Metal Door Hangers
Custom metal door hangers add personalized style to any home entrance. Our 22-26 inch designs combine durability with artistic appeal through precision plasma cutting and hand-finished details. Available in seasonal themes or custom patterns, these weather-resistant pieces maintain their appearance through professional powder coating and rust-prevention treatments.
Yard Stake Decor
Transform outdoor spaces with our metal yard stakes featuring intricate designs. Each 22-inch stake combines structural integrity with decorative elements, using 14-gauge steel for lasting durability. The ground-ready stakes resist corrosion while maintaining vibrant colors through UV-protected finishes applied in multiple layers for maximum protection against the elements.
Custom Fabrication
Bring unique visions to life with our custom metal fabrication service. From concept to completion, our team translates ideas into tangible art using CNC plasma technology and traditional welding techniques. Clients receive scale drawings for approval before production begins, ensuring final products match their exact specifications and spatial requirements.
Seasonal Decor
Celebrate every season with themed metal decorations designed for indoor and outdoor display. Our collection includes Easter, Christmas, and Kentucky Derby motifs, with new designs introduced annually. Each piece maintains structural integrity through reinforced edges while featuring detailed patterns that capture the spirit of each occasion.
Plasma Cutting
Precision plasma cutting creates complex metal shapes with clean edges and consistent quality. Our 5'x10' CNC table handles sheets up to 1/2" thick, allowing for both small decorative items and large architectural elements. This computer-controlled process ensures dimensional accuracy within 0.010 inches for intricate designs requiring tight tolerances.
