Weighing in at over 250 lbs, this crystal specimen was a challenge to encase and mount in mild steel. An overdone french cleat solved the problem for mounting. We used a patina solution to add an antique copper glow to the metal. Concept by Double Happiness Design Wood work by Dovetail Furniture Co.

For Display cases and tables for a clothing storeWe knew we needed one of kind display cabinets for our retail location. When we stumbled upon the Custom Made web site and started to browse through the artists and craftsmen we knew instantly that we wanted steel cabinets from Hellgate Forge. We contacted Darin through the site and he immediately got back to us to start the design process. It was really a very exciting process to have an idea, share with Hellgate Forge and watch it come to life. When our custom handmade display cabinets arrived they were better than we imagined. Upon instillation people immediately started commenting on the displays. They perfectly complement our one of kind space, serve a purpose as well as stand-alone as a piece of artwork. Hellgate Forge stayed in contact with us through the entire project and accommodated our very short time frame. Our display cabinets were well worth the investment and we could not be happier with the service and product we received from Hellgate Forge. Thanks Guys!!

For Branch RailingDarin was amazing to work with - so nice and accommodating and easy to communicate with. The branch railing he made for our staircase is gorgeous and a work of art. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Darin and Hellgate Forge.
