We invite you to learn about the steps we take to ensure
your OW Lee furniture lasts for generations.
OW Lee utilizes two
robotic welders for
simpler and high
volume items. These
robotic welders
allow OW Lee to
achieve the highest
level of accuracy in
mere seconds.
Frames & Finish
Starting with raw materials, OW
Lee adheres to the highest quality
standards. Our raw aluminum and
iron rods, tubing, and sheets used to
make chair, table, and ore pit frames
is often the most durable
available on the market.
Wherever there is an
intersection of metal, we use a
full-circumference weld to join
the metal together.
OW Lee employs an extensive process to
apply a long-lasting powder coating onish
to our frames. Using a chemical reaction,
tiny paint-like particles known as “powder”
adhere to the frame.
The chemical reaction in powder coating
causes the particles to spread evenly into
every corner and crevasse of the frame,
preventing exposed metal which can cause
corrosion. Our sate of the art 7-step powder
coating process includes two washing
cycles, a zinc-rich primer coat, a baking
process and then the onal onish color is
applied. This process puts a 4-6 mil thick
onish on the metal, providing excellent
protection against the outdoor elements.
While shopping, you may notice
that OW Lee chairs are much
heavier than other outdoor chairs.
This is evidence of the thicker
material we use. The thicker
material is much more durable for
outdoor use.
Steel and aluminum pieces are bent into
exact shapes and then hand forged with a
hammer and anvil, a process unchanged
since blacksmiths in the middle ages.
