DH Schmidt takes the passion of crafting commercial fixtures and couples it with the challenges of maintaining design intent, ease of installation, and product integrity. The greatest achievement is in manufacturing a product that accomplishes all three of these feats.
Custom fixtures are perhaps the most fun for us to craft. We begin with the design or idea directly from the artist or customer, and then engineer and build a full custom commercial fixture. The designs can range from traditional to modern and can be found from financial institute lobbies to Scandinavian diners.
The building blocks for custom commercial fixtures are practically boundless. If the designer can think it, DH Schmidt can advise on materials and construction to bring it into reality. We will test certain materials and methods before final construction to ensure we are able to deliver the best product possible, working directly with the customer the entire way.
Commercial fixtures, like the majority of our casework, can be shipped worldwide. DH Schmidt has experience ensuring our fixtures reach their destination safely and are installed properly.
