If timber is not too your liking, and stainless is a little too modern, then you may want to consider our range of high quality black wrought iron balusters for stairs in both square and round designs.

For as long as my memory can stretch back we have been manufacturing the FL021R 90x90 Edwardian style turned dining table leg. This design started its life in the very early 1980`s when a customer dropped into our factory and asked...

HAMMERSMITH manufacturers a range of timber handrails that can be used in domestic and commercial applications. Our wooden hand rails come in a range of shapes and timbers.

Here in Adelaide our local newspaper is The Advertiser. In the Saturday print of the paper they have a section called Silent Achievers which promotes businesses in South Australia that have either been around a long time or are doing something special.

A few years back we had a request from a hardware store in regional South Australia as to whether we could make a 32mm diameter hardwood timber dowel. We said that was easy, but then the customer told us that they needed to all by 4.2 metres in length, which presented us with a bit of a challenge.

It is funny how history tends to repeat itself when it comes to furniture design. Back in the 1960's we were regularly manufacturing simple turned tapered legs for use on various pieces of furniture; and here we are now 50 years later doing the same thing again.

Back in the 1980's we were asked by a manufacturer of wooden jigsaw puzzles as to whether we could produce a small wooden handle/knob that they would use to fit to timber letters and numbers on childrens jigsaw puzzles.

Verandah posts look great on any traditional Australian home, but the addition of a post mould, can make them look even better.

For a number years we have had a range of post moulds made in polyurethane (hardened foam) for 90sq and 115sq posts; but due to circumstances out of our control, we were not able to source these anymore; and as a result we decided to re-produce the product in timber.

Being a timber manufacturing business, we are regularly required to glue timber together to be able to make a product. For example, the FL526R 130x130 turned dining table leg that we produce is not able to come from a solid piece of timber due to its large size; instead to make it we glue 4 pieces of timber together.
