After
opening its doors as a weather-stripping company in 1923, H&B expanded its
capabilities in the 1940's by purchasing a metal fabrication shop to manufacture airplane
hangar doors for the wartime economy. As a result, the company started manufacturing
elevator entrances along with hollow metal and other metal specialties.
In 1953, H&B entered the custom passenger elevator cab and entrance
business, building a new and expanded facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Today, H&B has the reputation of being the premier manufacturer of
custom passenger elevator cabs and entrances throughout the world. Our objective is, pure
and simple, to meet your demand for architectural beauty and quality in vertical
transportation. We are the leader in changing architects' and customers' ideas into
