Powder coating isn't just for workshops and factories. Homeowners across Auckland use Coating Lab to refresh and protect the metalwork around their homes — giving tired-looking gates new life, updating outdoor furniture to match a refreshed garden, or protecting balustrades from the elements.
The process is straightforward: drop your items off at our Onehunga facility, choose your colour, and collect a professionally finished product that will last many years outdoors. No fuss, no guesswork.

Outdoor Furniture
Outdoor furniture takes a beating — UV exposure, moisture, and general weathering make cheap paint finishes peel and flake within a couple of seasons. Powder coating is the smart alternative: a hard, sealed finish that resists fading and rust for many years.
We regularly work on classic wrought iron settings, aluminium patio furniture, and custom-built outdoor pieces. Bring us what you have — we'll strip it back, prep the surface, and coat it in whatever colour suits your space.

Gates & Fences
A freshly powder coated gate makes a big difference to the street appeal of a home. Whether you're refreshing an original iron gate or finishing a new steel one, powder coating provides a far more durable finish than spray paint — and it looks great done properly.
Pool fencing is also popular — we can coat aluminium pool fencing components in any colour to complement your outdoor area.

Balustrades & Handrails
Deck balustrades and stair handrails are constantly exposed to the elements. Powder coating keeps them looking sharp while protecting against rust and corrosion — a practical investment for any home.

Choosing Your Colour
One of the best parts of powder coating is the colour range. We offer the full RAL spectrum — over 200 standard colours — as well as common New Zealand architectural colours. Whether you want classic black, something to match your home's exterior cladding, or a bold statement colour for a garden feature, we can deliver it.
Not sure what colour to choose? Bring a paint chip or colour code and we can match it.
Frequently Asked Questions
You don't need to do much — just remove any non-metal parts that can't go in the oven (cushions, rubber feet, glass inserts, plastic components) and let us know about any areas you want masked off. We handle stripping, cleaning, and surface preparation as part of our standard process.
Yes, we offer colour matching. Bring in a paint chip, colour code, or a sample component and we can source a matching powder. Our range includes full RAL colours and common NZ architectural references. Note that powder coat and wet paint have slightly different visual properties — powder coat typically has a cleaner, more consistent appearance.
In most cases, yes — especially if the furniture is structurally sound. Powder coating strips rust and old paint, treats the surface, and applies a finish that lasts many years. It's often far more cost-effective than replacing quality outdoor furniture, and you get to pick a fresh new colour while you're at it.
Powder coating is significantly more durable than wet paint outdoors. With proper surface preparation, you can expect many years of good appearance in typical NZ outdoor conditions. The finish resists UV fading, rust, and weathering far better than painted alternatives.
