Tirupati Aluminium House

Tirupati Aluminium House is tucked into Gali Number 8 at Chuna Mandi in Pahar Ganj. Number 2685 is the spot. If you’ve ever walked through Pahar Ganj, you know the lanes are narrow and there is always something happening. We work with aluminium sections and sheets mostly. The shop is filled with long metal pieces that we have to be careful not to poke anyone with when we are moving them around. It is a bit of a maze in here sometimes. The sound of metal clanging is just part of the background noise along with the bells from the rickshaws outside. We have been in Chuna Mandi for quite some time now and we know the rhythms of the street. It gets crowded in the afternoons when everyone is trying to get their work done before the markets get even busier. Our walls are lined with different types of frames and fittings. There isn't a lot of room for sitting around, so we stay on our feet most of the day. The light in the lane isn't always great, but we have our spots where we check the finish on the metal. It’s just a regular shop where we do our business every day without much fuss. People come in, ask for what they need, and we pull it from the stacks. It’s a simple life surrounded by metal and the noise of the city.
