Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I also order the animals without ground pins?

    No Unfortunately. We have chosen to only make animals with ground pins. We have these in stock. We cannot simply cut an animal without ground spikes because then the laser file has to be adjusted.

  • Do you also imitate animals from a photo?

    That is a wish for the future, but at the moment it cannot be realized yet. customization is fairly labour-intensive.

  • Do you also have other breeds/animals than in your webshop?

    All available animals are in our webshop. Is your favorite animal not listed? Then unfortunately we don't have it either. That doesn't mean it will never come. Follow us on facebook or instagram and stay informed of our latest models

  • What are the dimensions of your animals?

    We try to make all animals full size. The dimensions of the animals are stated in the product information

  • Do you also make other objects such as animals?

    We only make animals. The requests so far have been very diverse. Flower boxes, balustrades, street furniture and logos. However, Metal Animal's shoemakers stick to their last. You should do what you are good at!

  • Which countries do you deliver to?

    We currently deliver to the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Denmark.

  • Can I come and have a look at your store?

    Cozy ! We always like to show how nice our animals are in real life. Experience shows that customers come for one specific animal but leave with two or three metal animals. So we should really applaud this. However, we do not have a physical store. We serve our customers from our storage space. Perhaps that will change in the future. Until then, we are happy to welcome you, but by appointment. So send an email and we'll schedule a moment.

  • Can your animals be outside?

    Yes ! That's what they're made for. Preferably in the front yard so the whole street can see them ;)

  • Will the black-coated animals rust?

    Some of our Corten steel animals are coated black. For this powder coat treatment, the animals are immersed in a liquid that seals the metal from moisture. The animals are then provided with a powder coat. 100% stainless cannot be promised because the powder coat can sometimes not fully penetrate into the smallest nooks and crannies. However, because the steel is Corten steel, the rust does not penetrate further under the paint and the powder coat layer remains nice and tight. If there are any rust spots, they are only visible if you observe the animal from very close.
