Nickel has become a commonly used metal finish in recent years. It is a shiny, silver like metal and is both resistant and hard wearing. With the right manufacturing processes, it will give good corrosion protection. On occasion it can be used for its corrosion protection qualities.

Nickel will dull off if not regularly polished like other comparable metals but because it provides such a hard consistency, almost all appropriate proprietary cleaners can be used without causing damage to the finish. Many customers choose nickel because they like the attractive finish which develops as it ages.

Chromium plating, on the other hand, is now a familiar finish and its brilliant bluish white appearance is commonly recognised. The deposit does not tarnish and requires only occasional cleaning with soap and water, or wiping with a soft cloth, to return the appearance to its original sheen.

The company prides itself on the quality of its work. It does not cut corners and provides the customer with what they want through care and attention to detail.
