Metal Plating Near Beaverton

Engineers live here, and it shows.

Beaverton sits west of Portland in the Tualatin Valley, in the middle of what Oregonians call the Silicon Forest. Electronics, test equipment and sportswear design all have deep roots in the area. Old Town Beaverton has been filling with restaurants, while Cedar Hills and Murray Hill hold decades of family homes.

Beaverton customers tend to send very clear instructions, which we appreciate. Email the drawing or photos, and a written quote follows. Plan on two to four business days for ground shipping. After plating and inspection, we return the parts insured, bagged and labeled the way you sent them.

Hardware engineers ask about small runs of housings, contacts and brackets. Product designers want sample finishes for a prototype. Homeowners write about kitchen and bath hardware, usually during a remodel.

What We Do

Plating Services in Beaverton

Beaverton leans technical: electroless nickel plating, functional copper plating and gold 24k plating for contacts, tumble finishes for small parts, and satin nickel plating for home hardware.

Metal Finishing Shop Serving Beaverton

Prototype housings and remodel hardware.

Small electronic parts often need more than one layer. Copper for conductivity, nickel as a barrier, gold on top where a contact must never tarnish. We plate flash, standard and heavy gold deposits. Tell us what the part does, and we will suggest a sensible stack.

Designers use us differently. A product mockup may need three versions of a finish to compare: bright nickel, satin nickel, black nickel. We can plate samples side by side so a team can decide with real metal in hand.

    How It Works

    From Beaverton to Our Shop

    01

    Get your quote first

    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.

    02

    Pack it like it will be dropped

    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.

    03

    Insure and send the tracking

    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.

    Approve, then we ship back

    We send photos when the work is done. Once you approve and pay, your parts go back to you packed the same careful way.

    Yes. Send several identical parts and tell us which finishes to compare. We plate each one differently and label them. It is an inexpensive way to choose before a production order.

    Nickel acts as a barrier. Without it, the base metal can slowly migrate into the gold and dull its color. We apply a nickel barrier under every decorative gold job and recommend it for most contacts too.

    It is a dark, smoky version of nickel plating, somewhere between gray and black depending on the base. It is popular on consumer products and hardware. A photo of the tone you want helps us aim for it.

    Our receiving desk accepts deliveries Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM Pacific. Carriers get a signature, and we confirm the count against your packing list. A note with your name and phone number inside the box saves time if anything needs a question.

    Yes. Pulls, knobs and hinges are stripped and replated in one run so the color matches across the kitchen. Timing matters, since standard turnaround is 3 to 5 weeks. Many owners order a spare set of pulls so the kitchen is never left bare while we work.

    The shop is open Monday to Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM and Saturday from 9 AM to 2 PM. We're closed on Sunday. Shipments are received Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM Pacific.

    Usually, yes. Send a photo of the piece you want to match, or ship it along with your parts as a sample. We adjust the finish until the new work sits right next to the old.

    When the work is done and inspected, we pack your parts in fresh materials and ship them back insured. If you're close to Oceanside, you're welcome to pick them up instead.
