Designer Mesh Adds Character to Iconic Brewery Sign

Fort Pitt Brewery used McNICHOLS® Designer Wire Mesh to add a unique, iconic sign above an entrance door that would have the street number mounted to it.

Fort Pitt Brewery

There are many breweries in the boroughs of Allegheny County, one of which was Fort Pitt Brewery, located in Sharpsburg. This particular brewery is one of a group of Maryland breweries that date back to 1906. The owner of the brewery wanted to add a unique and iconic sign above an entrance door that would have the street number mounted to it. He wanted handsome metalwork that resembled a beer keg with fluid going into it. McNICHOLS® Designer Mesh TECHNA™ and SHIRE™ were the two patterns the owner decided to go with. TECHNA™ was used for upright and integral circular panels, while SHIRE™ made up the top and bottom panels. Angle and Flat Bar secured and framed the panels, bringing the design together. The resulting structure complemented the original building aesthetics quite well.
