Powder Coating Services — Auckland CBD

Serving Auckland's Commercial and Creative Sector

The Auckland CBD is home to architecture firms, interior designers, commercial fit-out companies, and hospitality businesses — all of whom regularly need precision metal finishing that they can rely on. Whether it's a custom balustrade for a new city apartment block, powder coated shopfront metalwork, or a bespoke feature piece for a hospitality fit-out, Coating Lab delivers the kind of quality finish that holds up in commercial environments.

We work closely with Auckland specifiers and contractors who need consistent colour matching, tight timelines, and a finishing partner who communicates clearly. If you're working on a CBD project and need a coating sub-contractor, get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Getting to Us from the City

From the Auckland CBD, our Onehunga workshop is an easy trip south via SH1. Take the Onehunga off-ramp and follow Neilson Street — you'll find us at 55 Angle Street. Off-peak, you're looking at a straightforward drive with no complicated navigation. Most people find dropping off smaller items themselves is the simplest option.

For commercial clients in the CBD, we can arrange pickup and delivery — just let us know when you get in touch and we'll work out the logistics.

What CBD Businesses Bring to Us

Commercial and architectural work makes up a significant part of what we do. City-based clients regularly bring us:

• Balustrades and handrails — powder coated to architectural specification, including custom RAL colours
• Shopfront metalwork — frames, brackets, signage supports, and fascia elements
• Hospitality furniture frames — table bases, chair frames, and bar seating finished to match interior schemes
• Interior design feature pieces — decorative metal elements for offices, hotels, and retail fit-outs
• Architectural window and door components — frames and flashings for commercial builds requiring colour-matched coatings

Our Services

Everything is handled in-house at our Onehunga facility:

• Powder Coating — including custom RAL colours, full range of finishes from gloss to matte and textured
• Sandblasting — removing old coatings and rust before refinishing
• Wet Spray Painting — 2K and epoxy coatings for items that require liquid paint rather than powder
• Zinc Arc Wire Spray — corrosion protection for structural steel elements
• Custom Flashings — bespoke metal flashings for commercial building projects
• Folding Services — brake press fabrication combined with coating, for a complete one-stop service

Sandblasting for Auckland CBD Projects

Many commercial jobs require surface preparation before coating — especially when refinishing existing metalwork or restoring heritage building elements. Our sandblasting service removes old paint, rust, and contaminants to create the clean substrate needed for a long-lasting finish. For CBD architects and contractors working with existing structures, sandblasting is often the first step before any coating work begins.

• Architectural gates and entry metalwork for commercial properties
• Outdoor furniture for rooftop bars, hotel terraces, and café streetscaping
