Spigots are a simple but elegant way of holding 12mm panels of glass; whether for pool fencing and general domestic balustrade.
We sell a range of square or round designs that can be either mounted to the top of a deck or concreted into the ground.
EZIRAIL is the name given to our range of 50mm round timber dowels and fittings that can be used to create continuous timber handrail for domestic, commercial and aged care applications.
Manufacturing timber dowel use to be quite a challenge for us until we purchased a new machine a few years back. Before we got this machine it was difficult to accurately line up the cutters so that you ended up with a perfectly round dowel. With the new machine this is not an issue, and as a result we have been able to very quickly produce dowels in different sizes.
You may not know this, but when HAMMERSMITH started back in 1946 we use to make Australiana souvenirs for tourist shops our of Mulga wood.
So "what is Mulga wood ?" I hear you ask. Well Mulga wood is an Australian hardwood that is grown in the more arid areas of Australia. The timber is extremely hard and was used extensively by Aboriginals for the making of traditional hunting tools such as spears and boomerangs.
Feature timber ceilings are a great way to add value to the outside alfresco area of your house. Here in Australia the most common timber used is Western Red Cedar, but we do occasionally get request for different timbers to be used for this purpose. This was the case recently where we had a customer who wanted to have a timber ceiling made out of American White Oak.
Sometimes doing the same thing can get a bit boring, so it is nice when you get a request from a customer to produce a product that leaves you scratching your head and asking yourself "how am I going to make this ?" This was the case recently when a customer wanted us to make a 40mm diameter handrail our of Victorian Ash.
Sometimes the simplest looking jobs can prove more challenging than you think. This was the case recently when we were asked by a customer if we could produce a rebated timber capping.
A post mould surround is a great decorative add on to your verandah post.
The post mould surrounds that we manufacture come in 2 forms. The first is one that is already made up to drop over a post that is either 90 x 90mm or 115 x 115mm; which obviously means that it needs to be installed at the same time that the post is being installed.
Up until a 10 years ago we didn't do a lot of dowels, as we didn't have the right equipment to make them on. After investing in the necessary machinery, manufacturing timber dowels is now a large part of our business.
