History
Near the turn of the 20th Century, Augie Andersen founded a one-man repair shop in Elizabeth, N.J. The entrepreneur specialized in ice-box repair, furnace maintenance, and steel work. After several prosperous years, Mr. Andersen moved his business to the outskirts of Linden Township and officially adopted the name A Andersen Sheet Metal Co. (ASM). Augie stayed at the helm of his business until his son, Kai Christian, took over in 1947.
Kai Christian Andersen served as a captain and flight instructor during World War II. When the conflict ended, he enrolled at Princeton University, but left after two years to take control of his father's company. Under Kai, ASM's manufacturing capability increased, supplying many of the world's top-automobile and consumer brands based in the area at the time with mass-produced goods. Kai serviced these corporate giants until he decided to retire. When it came time for the second generation to pass the baton, the Andersens turned to a family from the neighborhood.
After serving with the Merchant Marines and U.S. Army, Dominick Lentine settled his family in Rahway, N.J. The skilled metal worker had moved in next door to the Andersens. Dom found himself employed at ASM and worked with Kai until purchasing the company in 1980. Dom enlisted the help of his sons, John and Joe, to run the business and Kai stayed on in an advisory role. The company's name was officially changed to Lentine Sheet Metal. However, the company still does business as A Andersen Sheet Metal in recognition of the special relationship between the two families.
John and Joe transformed the business into the custom metal fabrication company that it is today. The Lentines began producing specialized pieces of work catered to individual projects and company needs. John and Joe expanded on the materials ASM works with, the industries it serves, the products it offers, and the facility itself. Emphasizing quality and customer satisfaction, the brothers built a brand that navigated an economic recession in the early 90s and the 2008 Financial Crisis. Nearly 120 years later, the Lentines proudly continue a tradition of producing high-quality, reliable American-made products.
