Balaji Metalic

We are located in Building 6/1856 in the Mahidhar Pura area, right on Badi Sheri. The streets around here are quite narrow and full of history. Working in an old building like this has its challenges, but it is where we have been for a long time. We work with metals, so you can always hear the sound of clinking or cutting coming from our unit. The space is filled with scraps and finished pieces waiting to be moved out. It’s a bit dark inside until we open up the big front doors to let the light in. We don't have a reception desk or a waiting room. If you come by, you just walk into the workshop. The walls are covered in marks and the floor is uneven, but it works for what we do. We deal with a lot of local craftsmen and builders who need specific metal parts. Sometimes it gets a bit overwhelming with the heat from the machinery and the lack of a breeze in the narrow alley. We just keep our heads down and get the orders done. It’s an honest way to spend the day, even if it leaves us covered in metal shavings and dust. We know the neighbors well, and there is always someone popping their head in to say hello while we are working on a piece.
