Chrome Plating
Copper, nickel and chrome with hand polishing between layers, for parts that need a bright, lasting shine.
View in RogersDoor hardware, lamps, bath fixtures, display pieces and tools around Rogers can come back sharp and new with the right plating. We strip, repair and refinish by hand, and have since 1989, with a 12 month workmanship guarantee on every job.
Downtown brick to new Pinnacle Hills homes, all welcome.
Rogers has a historic downtown with brick storefronts and old homes, and newer neighborhoods spreading through Pinnacle Hills. Both have metal that gets touched every day. Older pieces need a rebuild, while newer ones sometimes want a different finish than the one they came with.
Business is busy here too. Retail, hospitality and the suppliers that serve nearby corporate offices need fixtures, displays and trim that match. We finish sets together, so a row of handles or a run of rails looks like one piece.
The area's outdoor tradition also brings boat and lake hardware from Beaver Lake, plus fixtures for cabins and cottages. Whatever you have, send photos and we will give you a plain recommendation and a clear written quote, with no obligation at all.
Requests from Rogers include chrome and nickel for retail and restaurant hardware, brass and gold for lighting and decor, patinas for cabin style hardware, and powder coating for rails, signs and outdoor furniture.

Retail and hospitality customers often need dozens of identical pieces. We plate every handle, bracket or fixture in the same batch, so color and shine match. A written quote covers the whole run, and a sample piece can be done first for approval.
Homes and cabins get the same care on a smaller scale. Bathroom fixtures, kitchen hardware and lamps are all stripped, repaired and rebuilt. If a piece sits outdoors or near water, we pick a coating meant for that.
Big order or a single knob, same care.
Homeowners send us one faucet. Companies in and out of state send production runs of hundreds or thousands of parts. Both get a written quote and the same inspection before anything ships back.
These are the steps for sending Rogers parts to us, and the quote comes first every time.
Send photos of every part with a short description. We reply with a written quote and a lead time, usually the same business day. Never ship before you have a quote number.
Wrap each piece individually, keep metal from touching metal, and use at least three inches of padding on every side. Double box long trim and bumpers.
Ship with any carrier, insure the box for what the parts are worth to you, and email us the tracking number so we know it is on the way.
We send photos when the work is done. Once you approve and pay, your parts go back to you packed the same careful way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for Rogers and the rest of Northwest Arkansas.
Yes. We plate every piece in the same batch so color and shine are consistent. A quote covers the full run, and we can finish one sample first if you want to approve the look before we do the rest.
Yes. Display racks, rails, sign hardware and trim can be stripped, repaired and plated or powder coated. Send photos and sizes, and tell us how the piece is used so we can suggest a durable finish.
Wrap each piece in soft paper or foam, then cover it again. Do not let pieces touch, and put padding on every side of the box. For polished surfaces, keep tape well away from the bare metal, since it can leave marks.
Plating adds a very thin layer, far less than the width of a hair. For decorative work that does not matter at all, and we always check. For tight fitting parts, tell us the tolerance you need and we plan the coating around it before we start.
Yes. Cleats, latches, hinges, lantern hooks and fixtures all do well. Rinse off lake water, dry the parts and wrap them one at a time. We rebuild the finish so it stands up to humidity and sun.
Yes, and most of our work starts that way. We strip the old plating down to the base metal, repair what needs repair, then plate it fresh. New plating over a failing layer never lasts, so we don't do it.
We do. Along with single pieces for homeowners, we run batches of hundreds or thousands of parts for companies in California and other states. Send a photo of a sample, the quantity and the finish, and we'll quote the whole run.
Steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, pot metal and zamak. Some of them need extra prep so the plating bonds well, and we'll tell you up front if your part does.
