Architectural Metal Cornice Work in Copper, Aluminum, Steel, Zinc, Freedom Gray & Lead Coated Copper
K&M Sheet Metal can help you design, replicate or simply custom manufacture a cornice design of your choice. Everything is CAD drawn and laser cut to perfection.
Our specialized crew can work with radius corner pieces, as well as dentil portions.
Cornice metals made from stock that can be soldered such as copper, lcc, freedom gray is an optimal choice. This allows for seams that can be filed soldered, although that can be very challenging. An easier alternative is to use other materials such as galvalume, kynar aluminum and steel which are more cost effective and easier to install with rivets or zip screws. For such materials, the optional dentil portion would also have to be attached this way.
We can pre manufacture miters as well and even put them together if needed.
