Metal Plating Near Dallas

Showrooms, towers and tree lined old streets.

Dallas is a design capital for the middle of the country. The Design District is packed with showrooms, and the firms there furnish homes and hotels across Texas. Corporate towers fill downtown. Older neighborhoods such as Swiss Avenue and the Park Cities have houses from the 1910s and 20s with fine original fixtures.

Dallas designers already source from both coasts, so shipping to us is ordinary. Ground transit usually runs two to four business days. We begin with photos, counts and a finish sample, and reply with a written quote. A test piece can be approved before the full order is plated.

Designers and architects ask for custom finishes on large hardware sets. Hotels and office managers ask about lobby and elevator trim. Electronics manufacturers north of the city ask about functional plating. Owners of historic homes send lighting and door sets.

What We Do

Plating Services in Dallas

Dallas requests are polished: gold 24k plating, nickel plating in polished and satin, custom brass plating, chrome plating, and functional copper plating or electroless nickel plating for manufacturers.

Metal Plating Services in Dallas

Custom levers, lobby trim and Swiss Avenue sconces.

A design project lives or dies on consistency. Sixty pulls, twelve levers and a dozen sconces from four vendors must all read as one finish. We strip everything to bare metal and plate the lot in a single run against your approved sample. That is the only reliable way to get a true match.

Older Dallas homes have fixtures you cannot buy today. Silver plated sconces, cast brass door plates, nickel bath fittings with porcelain handles. We restore them without erasing their age. For manufacturers, we plate copper for conductivity and electroless nickel for even protection on small parts.

    Plating Questions from Dallas

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Dallas designers and owners ask these.

    Yes. We strip every piece and plate them together, so differences between makers disappear. You approve a sample first, and the whole order is matched to it. Mixed sets from three or four manufacturers are normal for a design project this size.

    It varies with the finish, so we give an estimate with the quote. Standard orders run 3 to 5 weeks once parts arrive. Build sample approval into your project schedule early.

    We do. Gold with nickel is the classic pairing, and we can also combine polished and satin areas on one piece. Masking is done by hand, so send clear notes on which areas get which finish.

    Yes. We repair, polish and replate them in bright or antique silver. An anti tarnish lacquer is a good idea for lighting, since it is not handled or washed like flatware.

    We plate copper, gold and electroless nickel on small parts. Send drawings and requirements. We will state clearly what we can meet and do not claim certifications we lack. For contacts and connectors, tell us what the part has to carry and we will suggest the layers.

    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.
