Outdoor Zinc, Brass & Copper for Hospitality
Patios, rooftops, pool decks and outdoor kitchens. The same solid zinc surface we make for busy indoor bars, plus AguaFuego, our custom outdoor furniture collection. Built for hotels, resorts and restaurants first, and for anyone with a patio they’re proud of.
01
Why our metal works outside
- A solid zinc surface, not sheet metal. No internal seams, and 2–3× the thickness of the 0.7–1.0 mm (about 0.03–0.04”) sheet typical of wrapped tabletops.
- Waterproof core. No wood inside to swell or rot under a patio umbrella.
- Made for indoor and outdoor use, including wet areas. Pool bars, rinse stations, rooftop rain.
- Up to 40% lighter than others. That matters when the top is going up to a roof deck.
- A living finish. Each metal patinates outdoors and settles into its own color over time.
Long tops are made in sections up to 10 feet, with no internal seams within a section. We plan where sections meet with you on the shop drawing.

Living with metal outdoors
- Patina: outside, zinc patinates faster and more evenly than indoors, from bright silver to a soft blue-gray. Brass and copper darken and warm.
- Everyday care: warm water, mild dish soap and a soft cloth to dry. Wax slows the patina; left unwaxed, it develops faster.
- Heat: use trivets for anything hot off the grill or the fire.
- Fire pits: Give it some breathing room from the flames. Zinc, brass and copper are tough, but they aren’t indestructible, and metal set too close to an open fire can burn.

Questions
Outdoor FAQ
Can your zinc, brass and copper stay outside year-round?
Yes. Our tops and AguaFuego pieces are made for indoor and outdoor use, including wet areas. The metal sits on a waterproof core, so there’s no wood inside to swell after a summer storm.
How do zinc, brass and copper change outdoors?
All three patinate, and faster outside than indoors. Zinc settles into a soft blue-gray, and brass and copper darken and warm. Wax or our protective coating slows the change.
Do you make outdoor kitchen countertops?
Yes. Grill stations, outdoor bars, prep counters and pass-throughs, as deep edge builds or flat tops. See outdoor countertops.
Can metal sit near a fire pit?
Yes, with some breathing room. Give it some breathing room from the flames. Zinc, brass and copper are tough, but they aren’t indestructible, and metal set too close to an open fire can burn. Use trivets for anything hot.
Do you work outside North Carolina?
Yes. We ship crated from Hickory, NC, nationwide, and coordinate with your installer or contractor.
