Architectural Metal

The brilliant minds at the Kansas City based A. Zahner Company have spent over a century taking metal to a whole new level. Founded in Kansas City, Missouri in 1897, Andrew Zahner provided custom architectural metal designs throughout Kansas and Missouri. A. Zahner mastered the use of new materials such as galvanized steel and aluminum, and later stainless steel. Under the management of Andrew Zahner’s great grandson, L. William Zahner, the company shifted from regional projects to international projects.

Working with such acclaimed architects as Frank Gehry and Snøhetta, who designed the September 11th Memorial in New York City, Zahner has become a recognizable name throughout the industry.

We are proud to have such talent here in our city and we look forward to seeing where Zahner takes metal in years to come.

The heart of our product beats at the intersection of art and function.”  – A. Zahner Company
