How We Work
At Architecturalmetals we work with all kinds of people and companies, from architectural designers to shop fitters, major brands and engineers in everything from automotive to aerospace. In turn we have been involved with many interesting projects.


Infilled Desk


Impressive paint infilled desk panel, this was a one-off manufacture for a customer. The copper panel was surface etched and black infilled to give a vibrant contrast and make the pattern pop.

Floor Display

Elegant tile flooring display, we produced this specifically for an art gallery. The etched copper panels interlock giving a floor pattern that is distinct and not for purchase anywhere else.


Artistic Design

This artistic design was created for a customer who knew exactly what they required and although needing some very fine etching work, our team was able to meet the specifications given.

Stainless Steel Doorway

Very precise, decoratively etched, stainless steel doorway with a unique frosted finish. If you have an idea regarding how your office may be given that special outward look, call us and speak to our specialist design team today.

Metal Pins

Highly polished, scratch free metal pins which can be adjusted in order to create a custom reflective image. Possible in a wide array of materials and finishes, the end result is unique and visually striking.

Copper Panels

A design company came to us with an idea for a massive project, they required some colossal copper panels etched and infilled, to be used in the entrance of a development in central London. Our customer had reached out to several companies, no one would take this project on due its size and the complications that come with components of this magnitude. Due to our expertise in this area we were confident we could complete the job and complete it to a very high standard. We worked alongside our customer to pinpoint exactly what level of finish they were looking for and explored their best options to achieve their goal. It was decided that etching would be the most effective way to attain the required level of detail and finish they wanted. We are very happy that even on a job of this size we are still able to achieve the high level of detail and finish required by our customer.

Decorative Brass Panels

We were approached by a customer, who was searching for a company who could produce some decorative brass panels for their clients shop front. The panels were to be fixed to the exterior of their customers building in China Town, London. Our expertise allowed us to take the project on, and we were confident we could achieve what the customer had dreamed up. We worked closely with their team to see what type of finish they required.

After some discussion we came to the decision that the best way to achieve the required quality with their design was to etch the graphic into the surface, and finish with a black infill. We enjoyed every moment of this job from start to finish, in particular when the customer expressed their delight with the finished panels. It is always rewarding when the finished product exceeds our customers' expectations and we work very hard to achieve this.

Lift Doors

A lift instillation company contacted us with a rather difficult enquiry, they had 14 pre-assembled lift doors that needed a design laid into the surface. They were to be fitted into a brand new 5 star hotel in London. The customer had played around with ideas of what methods they could use. The design on each set of doors had to match up perfectly and we had no room for error. As the doors arrived 'preformed' and not flat this added another layer of complexity. We were extremely happy with the outcome of the doors, as was the customer. The etching went without a hitch, it was bright, immaculately clean and the surface etch was in perfect contrast with the rest of the door. It was great to hear that the design was positioned spot on and had lined up to the tightest of tolerances. We found great satisfaction in breathing life into our customer's hopes and dreams, quite a striking end result, no?

What We Promise
Customer satisfaction is of upmost importance to us and making our customers dreams come true is always an outcome we strive to meet. We work with a number of Shop Fitters, Prop Makers, Display Designers, to create high-spec etched metal displays for end users such as (but not limited to) Louis Vuitton, Game of Thrones, Harrods, the Saudi Royal Family and Nobu Hotel Portland Square (upcoming). We can supply, amongst other things, larger etched panels than you would find throughout Europe, with a highly decorative level of finish that can include options such as plating, anodizing, or inlaid paint. My team prides itself on a consultative approach, meaning that we will work with you to bring your ideas/designs to life in the best format possible. These are just a few of the many projects we have worked on, we are excited about what the future holds and are keen to be involved in many more projects like these. So get in touch and let's see what we can create!

Operational Goals
You will have a single point of contact that will be in charge of insuring that your project is completed on time and to the agreed budget. We will discuss any problems with you directly and that you can contact us day or night, seven days a week if necessary. Customer satisfaction is our ultimate priority. We always works with our clients and within their budget to give them the best solution to their project; not to sell the customer the product we want to sell, unlike some other companies.
