Metal Finishing Shop Serving Sunnyvale

Tech campuses and mid century neighborhoods.

Sunnyvale is one of the original Silicon Valley cities, with tech campuses spread across its north side near Moffett Field. It also has a lot of mid century homes, including several Eichler neighborhoods, with clean lined hardware that owners work hard to preserve. Murphy Avenue keeps a historic downtown feel, with storefronts dating back more than a century.

Sunnyvale customers ship parts to us by ground, which usually takes one to two business days. Send a drawing or photos for a written quote, ship the parts, and we plate, inspect and return them insured.

Engineering and hardware teams send prototypes and production parts for electroless nickel or gold. Eichler owners send door hardware, cabinet pulls and light fixtures. Restaurants along Murphy Avenue send rails and fixtures that need a fresh finish.

What We Do

Plating Services in Sunnyvale

Sunnyvale asks us for electroless nickel plating and gold 24k plating on engineering work, and nickel plating, chrome plating and metal polishing for homes.

Metal Restoration for Sunnyvale Homes and Businesses

Hardware labs, Eichlers and Murphy Avenue tables.

Tech teams in Sunnyvale build physical products, and the metal parts inside need dependable coatings. Electroless nickel covers small details evenly, and gold is used where conductivity matters. Prototype batches are common, followed by larger runs once designs settle.

Eichler owners care about details, right down to the screws on a door plate. Original door hardware and cabinet pulls were often satin chrome or brushed aluminum, and keeping that look matters. We strip and replate to match. Restaurants on Murphy Avenue send their rails and trim when it starts to look tired, usually timed around slower weeks so the dining room is never missing much.

    How Sunnyvale Customers Ship Parts to Us

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Sunnyvale engineers and homeowners ask us these the most.

    Get a free quote

    Yes. Satin chrome was common on Eichler hardware, and we can plate it again. Send an original piece in good shape as a sample, and we match the sheen.

    We do. Small prototype batches let you check fit and finish before production. Send your drawing and coating spec, and we quote the first batch and repeat orders.

    Very even. It deposits chemically, so the layer is the same thickness on edges, threads and inside small holes. That makes it a common choice for precise parts.

    We work on standard turnaround, with expedited service when available. Tell us your deadline and we plan the work. Ask about expedited timing before you ship.

    Yes. We take them apart, strip the old finish, and plate them in chrome, nickel or brass. Tell us if the fixture has a specific era look you want to keep.

    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.
