Lux Metals was Founded in 1973 by Wade
Lux, a long time tin knocker with a unique talent for making
the impossible possible. A consummate inventor, Wade made
his mark not only producing sheet metal components for the
commercial and residential industry but working on his many
inventions and refining them into working prototypes.
In 1992 Clyde Wiggins came into the picture
with an eye towards the future. A view of broadening the
scope of work the company could perform, never turning down
work large or small and the purchase of a time clock were
just a few of the improvements that Clyde made in the company.
With Wade’s inventive capacity for goods, Clyde first
broadened the scope of the work to include custom and production
fabrication for several of the industry leaders in the tech
world, which include the food industry, and manufacturing
industries. Along with that new field He thought it would
be a good idea to delve into prototype development for those
same industry leaders. It worked.
In doing so Clyde opened the doors for
Lux to make the jump into High end residential fabrication
of products and parts such as Countertops, Kitchen Hoods,
Backsplash wall panels, and numerous other items that were
not production, or prototype development items, they were
just one off pieces that someone asked him to make. Clyde’s
secret to success is not complicated. Increase versatility,
watch your pennies, and spend 14 hours a day working on
your dream, piece of cake.

one focus on one product or customer. We take pride in helping

bet ya we can make something work. We’ve been doing
it for 38 years. We have had offers to become a production
facility stamping out thousands of parts a day. We turned
them down. We have had offers to work under contract for

for many reasons to change the scope of the company. Our
response has not changed in 38 years. Continue what has
worked while improving our quality and manufacturing capabilities
