We are known not only for our cutting and fabrication, but for the ancillary work that often would require you to go somewhere else: we are expert in metal finishing (especially known for blackened steel, patinas, electroplating, anodizing and more). We are creative and resourceful, and can often help you solve problems that cause unnecessary cost and delays—which has given us a reputation in the industry as “value engineers.”

Whatever your needs, whatever your vision, we’ll build it—to a standard of perfection that is truly exceptional.

A brake is a metalworking machine that allows the bending of sheet metal. A cornice brake only allows for simple bends and creases, while a box-and-pan brake also allows one to form box and pan shapes. It is also known as a bending machine or bending brake. The brake consists of a flat surface onto which the material is placed, and a clamping bar which will come down and hold the material firmly during the bend. The front, gate-like, plate of the machine is hinged and may be lifted, forcing the material extended over a straight edge to bend to follow the plate.
