It is often the case, that following shop drawing approval, but before the full release to prodution, Historical Arts & Casting goes through a full-scale mockup phase. These mockups build confidence for our clients in the areas of scale, material, finish, and quality. The mockup that we are showing today is a bronze railing extension for a parapet wall on an existing building. All of the components of the design and their relationship to each other are represented in the mockup. This particular mockup includes pieces made from castings, sheet material, extruded material and machined material. Following approval of this mockup, HACI was released to manufacture the full amount of the order. . . . #historicalartsandcasting #haci #castbronze #bronzerailing #parapetrailings #custommade #custommetalwork #oneofakind #mockup #residentialdesign #firstarticle

These long cast aluminum grilles will become part of an assembly for an entrance to a new home that is currently being built in the American Midwest. The new door assembly has a single sash, double sidelight, thermally broken configuration. These castings will be fabricated into grilles which will be integrated onto the exterior of the assembly. They will be hinged to allow for the glass behind them to be easily cleaned. (Note: if you head over to HACI's instagram profile, and look back about 8 posts, you will see a post that details a similar, less ornate, cast aluminum grille. These two grilles are actually for the same project-this one for the door assembly, the previous one for the transom panel above the door. They will be separated from each other by a entrance canopy, which HACI is also making and will be published here at later time). . . . #historicalartsandcasting #haci #castaluminum #aluminumgrille #aluminumgrilles #custommade #custommetalwork #oneofakind #itscomingtogether #residentialdesign #midwestliving
