Architectural & Ornamental Metal
Excellence in form and function.
Our century-old legacy is visible in the city’s most prestigious landmarks, from the meticulous restoration of 130-year-old bronze doors at the Marquette Building to the fabrication of sophisticated brass portals and revolving doors at 900 N. Michigan Avenue. We offer a comprehensive, single-source solution that seamlessly integrates ornamental metals—including architectural bronze, brass, and stainless steel—with advanced mechanical entry systems and glazing.
By managing every detail from custom patina matching and historic preservation to the installation of modern revolving doors and structural steel frames, MTH ensures that every entry system is a masterwork of luxury and durability. Whether we are reviving an architectural legacy or engineering a high-traffic urban gateway, we combine traditional metal-finishing techniques with innovative structural solutions to deliver results that are as enduring as they are iconic.
