About Us

Built to Last. Made in Minnesota. Since 1975.

For over 50 years, Higley Welding Metal Products has been crafting heavy-duty metal products that stand the test of time. What started in 1973 as a small welding operation in Minnesota has grown into a trusted name for commercial-grade playground equipment, fire pit campfire rings, and professional metal bending tools — all proudly made in the USA.

Our Story

Higley Welding was founded on a simple belief: if you're going to make something, make it right. That philosophy has guided every weld, every bend, and every finished product that has left our shop for more than five decades. We're not a big-box manufacturer churning out mass-produced goods — we're a hands-on American manufacturer that takes pride in every piece we build.

Our roots run deep in Minnesota, and so does our commitment to craftsmanship. When you buy from Higley Welding, you're buying from the people who actually make your product.

What We Make

We specialize in three core product lines, each built to commercial-grade standards:

  • Sand Diggers & Playground Equipment — Commercial-grade sand diggers built for parks, schools, and playgrounds. Engineered for heavy use and built to outlast the competition.
  • Fire Pit Campfire Rings — Stainless steel fire rings designed for durability and performance, whether for a backyard fire pit or a campground installation.
  • Metal Bending Tools — Professional-grade bending tools for fabricators, hobbyists, and tradespeople who demand precision and reliability.
  • Special Needs Bicycles For Kids.
