The Riteway Difference: Why Trust Your Intricate Item to Us
The Riteway Difference: Why Trust Your Intricate Item to Us
The same attention to detail used when replacing a seal in a high-pressure cylinder is applied to your valuable antique. We love the intricate details of gears, small bearings, and complex linkage—it’s a commitment to perfection that travels with every piece we ship. Another reason to use or consult with Riteway, Mike can research your own antiques to track down the history, manuels, and let you know what your precious airloom is actually worth, and if restoring them can hurt the value. We proudly offer our intricate restoration services and ship custom-made tools and specialty metal art nationwide. Preserve your mechanical history with care.

Meet the National Cash Register (NCR), panicle to our modern calculating registers. This was discovered in a pawn shop for sale. Mike bought it on a whim for their extrememly reaonable offer, not knowing anything about it or registers, but he has an eye for important details that tell him the age, quality, and purpose on an item. The nickle plated bronze told him this was a rare find, and sure enough, NCR started using sheet metal their registers at the start of WWII, making this one of the older models with more advanced features.
Artistic Pieces: From custom artistic hooks and decorative keys to bespoke metal signage, we bring the same attention to detail to ornamental builds as we do to industrial components.
