East Bay Fixture Company has been an Oakland business since the 1920’s. The Company is one of only three Manufacturing Members of the Architectural Woodwork Institute [AWI] in Northern California. AWI publishes the quarterly journal “Design Solutions,” an excellent source for woodworking details.

The current manager of the facility, Tony Than, is a former employee of Berkeley Mills, which we visited on another CSI Tour in 2005. He now employs up to 30 people fabricating and installing casework. He currently is constructing cabinetwork for elementary schools, which involves varying dimensions for different size children.
The facility now occupies an entire block, from Aileen on the North to 56th St. on the South, and from Adeline on the East to Lowell on the West.
