Chrome and Nickel Plating for Ramona

A valley of ranches, vineyards and cold clear nights.

Ramona sits in the backcountry of San Diego County, in a wide valley surrounded by hills. It's ranch and horse country, and the Ramona Valley wine region has grown into a destination with dozens of small wineries. Main Street has older storefronts and feed stores. Summers are hot, winter nights get cold, dust is everywhere and many homes use well water.

Ramona customers ship to us by ground, and boxes usually arrive in one business day. Send photos for a written quote. Each piece is stripped, coated, plated or patinated and inspected before it returns insured.

Ranch and horse owners send gate latches, barn door hardware and hitching rings. Wineries send tasting room rails, tap fixtures and signs. Main Street businesses send storefront hardware, and homeowners send faucets spotted by well water and porch lights.

Ramona asks for powder coating, refurbishing and patinas, plus brass plating and chrome plating for wineries and homes.

Metal Plating Near Ramona

Barns, vineyards and Main Street feed stores.

Ranch hardware in Ramona takes heat, frost and dust in the same year. Gate latches, barn door tracks, hitching rings and stall hardware come to us for rust removal and tough powder coat, with moving parts masked so they still work. Dark colors hide the dust that settles on everything out here.

The wine region's tasting rooms want warm, rustic metal: antique brass rails, oil rubbed bronze door pulls, iron sign brackets. We refinish and seal them for busy weekends. Main Street businesses send storefront pieces, and homes on well water send faucets that minerals have spotted and pitted.

    Yes. We strip the old finish, plate brass and darken it to an antique tone with highlights rubbed back by hand, then seal it with lacquer so spills and cleaning don't spot it. Send all the rails and fixtures together so the tone matches throughout the room, and tell us your busiest weekends so we can time the return.

    It can. Minerals in well water build up and eat through worn plating. We strip, polish and replate the brass, and drying fixtures after use helps the new finish last.

    Yes. We strip rust and powder coat tracks and hangers, masking roller bearings. Long tracks may need freight. Hangers usually come back looking new.

    Powder coat and quality plating handle temperature swings well. Touch up chips early so water can't get under the finish. Gates facing south take the most sun.

    Some do. Pulls, sign brackets and lanterns are refinished in patinas or brass to fit the look. Feed store signs are a favorite.

    Not at all. Most of what comes through our door is home and business hardware: faucets, light fixtures, door handles, cabinet pulls, railings and decorative pieces. We also work for hotels, restaurants, boat owners and manufacturers.

    Tell us what the part is, roughly how big it is, how many pieces you have and the finish you're after. If you know the metal, mention it. If not, that's fine. We can usually tell from the photos.

    Every part is quoted on its own. The biggest factors are condition, the base metal, size and shape, the finish you choose and how many pieces you send. A part with deep pits or broken spots takes more work before it can be plated.
