In 2014, my wife Jennifer and I started CabinExclusive with one goal - to build handcrafted metal décor that felt real, lasting, and made right here in the USA. What began as a side project between shifts quickly became a calling. We wanted to bring the rugged beauty of the mountains into homes across the country, one steel art piece at a time.
In the early days, we worked out of a shop in Orem, Utah, cutting, sanding, and finishing every piece. We learned by trial and error, leaning on persistence more than perfection. Over time, our Etsy shop grew - and so did our passion for creating designs that told a story. From elk scenes to lodge lighting, each design came from the same love of the outdoors that fills our own lives.
Then life tested us. Jennifer’s battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma and the challenges of COVID forced us to decide whether this was just a hobby or something worth fighting for. We chose to double down. Through it all, our customers - and their kind words - kept us going. Today, CabinExclusive has shipped thousands of pieces nationwide, each one built in our Utah workshop with pride and faith.
If you want to see what keeps us inspired, check out our Etsy shop. You’ll find over two hundred 5-star reviews from real customers who’ve brought our work into their homes. Every purchase supports a small American family working hard to keep craftsmanship alive.
From our mountain workshop to your home - thank you for being part of the story.
