New Jayalakshmi Engineering Company

You can find New Jayalakshmi Engineering Company at 15/351 on Mettupalayam Road. It’s a very busy road, so there is always dust and the sound of buses passing by. Our building is a simple structure that has seen a lot of use over the years. Inside, we have our lathes and welding equipment set up. It gets pretty hot during the day, especially in the summer, so we keep the big doors open to catch whatever breeze we can. The floor is concrete and usually has some oil spots here and there. We don't worry too much about appearances because the work we do is heavy and messy. We’ve been here for a long time, and the regulars know exactly where to park their scooters when they come by. There’s no fancy lobby or air conditioning. We just have a few chairs and a table where we can look at sketches. Most of the time, we’re standing up or bending over a machine. It’s hard work, but it’s what we know. We don't have a website or anything like that; we just rely on people knowing that we are here on Mettupalayam Road. If someone has a part that needs fixing or a frame that needs welding, they bring it in, and we see what we can do. It’s a basic way of life, but it keeps us busy from morning till night.
