Details Matter: Crystal Leichters, Shivisy Signs, and More Accessories for Your Shul

When furnishing a synagogue or mikvah, it’s the little things that elevate a sacred space from “just functional” to truly meaningful. At A&W Metal Works, we believe every detail counts—and that includes the accessories.

Here are three must-have additions that bring beauty, purpose, and intention to any Jewish communal space:

Crystal Leichters

Bring brilliance and warmth to your Aron Kodesh or Bima with crystal lighting that adds ambiance and spiritual elegance.

Custom sizes

Premium crystal clarity

Fits both modern and traditional décor

Let there be light—and let it feel like kavod.

Shivisy Signs

A daily reminder: “Shivisi Hashem L’Negdi Tamid” – I place Hashem before me always.

Wall-mounted or base-standing

Fully customizable in size and finish

Available in wood, metal, or printed plaque

These signs don’t just decorate—they inspire.

Coat Racks & Hangers

Keep your entryway and mikvah organized with durable, polished options:

Chrome or gold hangers

Matching wood finishes available

Functional, elegant, and built to last

Because dignity should be present in every detail—even where you hang your coat.

Every accessory is handcrafted and customizable to your space’s needs. From lighting to signage and utility, our finishing touches reflect the sanctity of your community.

✨ From Seforim Wagons to Crystal Leichters: The Unsung Heroes of Every Shul ✨

When we picture a shul, we usually think big — the Aron Kodesh, the Bima, long rows of benches, maybe a fancy Rabbi’s chair with a carved back. But let’s be honest: the real day-to-day flow of a shul depends on the low-key essentials no one talks about... until they’re missing.

At A&W Metal Works, we’ve built everything from massive Torah arks to humble, hard-working book carts. Here are a few of the most underrated but absolutely vital items every shul should consider adding (or upgrading):

1. Seforim Wagons (Book Carts) These rolling shelves are lifesavers in busy shuls and batei medrash — helping seforim travel from shiur to shiur without getting lost or trashed.

🔹 Why it matters: Keeps things organized, reduces wear-and-tear, and encourages clean-up. 🔹 Our Tip: Go for durable wheels, smooth handles, and double-sided options if your beis is packed. 🛠️ Browse our Seforim Wagons →

2. Crystal Leichters (Candle Holders) Not just decorative — these add warmth, reverence, and a sense of kavod to any space.

🔹 Why it matters: They elevate the Bima and bring a glow of spirituality. 🔹 Our Tip: Choose crystal for modern elegance that sparkles without stealing the spotlight.

3. Coat Racks & Chrome Hangers Unsexy? Maybe. Essential? Absolutely.

🔹 Why it matters: Prevents coat pileups, soggy messes, and arguments over “whose black coat is this?” 🔹 Our Tip: Ours are sturdy, sleek, and built to survive decades of Yom Kippur traffic.

4. Small Torah Safes Perfect for weekday minyanim, travel, or side rooms where a full Aron just isn’t practical.

🔹 Why it matters: Secure, respectful storage for Sifrei Torah — wherever you need it. 🔹 Our Tip: Fire-rated, holds two scrolls, optional wheels. Small but mighty.

5. Bal Tefilah & Rabbi Amid Stands Functional, lightweight, and respectful — perfect for davening or reading in small spaces.

🔹 Why it matters: Gives your shaliach tzibbur a dignified place to lead. 🔹 Our Tip: We make ours with reinforced bases and durable, stain-resistant finishes.

🛠️✨ At A&W Metal Works, we give the same care to a coat rack as we do to a custom Aron. Because whether it’s a seforim cart or a crystal leichter, the details matter. The smoother your shul runs, the more everyone can focus on what really counts.
