About HCM

Handcrafted Metals

Established in 2002, we have grown into one of the largest firms of our type in the Bay Area. That growth, built primarily on repeat clients and referrals, is attributable to our core values: to deliver work of unmatched creativity and quality, to exceed our clients’ expectations, and to demonstrate the highest level of safety and integrity in everything we do.

Our shop includes a full range of metalworking equipment, along with a high-capacity paint booth, waterjet cutting services, offices and our customer showroom. Our well-equipped fleet of installation trucks allows our on-site work to be done quickly and correctly.

Most importantly, we employ a highly skilled and dedicated team of professional welders, fabricators, installers, CAD Designers and safety experts, who work every day to exemplify our values.

Please come visit the shop, speak to our custom fabricators and designers and let us help turn your ideas into reality.

We are a fully COVID19 compliant shop following all State and County Mandates regarding PPE and employee screening

Over and Beyond!

Working with Owner Kurt Smith and his crew has been a great experience. We bring the most challenging projects to Handcrafted Metals and they find a way to make them a reality Triple A rating!!

Highly Recommend!

Beyond the standard outdoor railings, Kurt's firm went full bore with their creative designers and came up with unique solutions for an outdoor shower wall, lightwell and steel outside door. I highly recommend Handcrafted Metals for all your needs.

Outstanding Craftsmanship!

At the level of quality products that Handcrafted creates, it is difficult for us to find a company that possesses both the quality of craftsmanship and level of service that we have found with Kurt and his crew!

Over and Beyond!

I unconditionally recommend Hand Crafted Metals. I've come to rely on Kurt and his team to consistently deliver a quality product. I've worked with them for several years now on a wide range of jobs from large estate gates to decorative stair railing, contemporary aluminum and steel work to complex railing systems and glass. They are great guys to work with and stand behind their work.
