A Little History

H & H Specialties was founded by John H. Higgins in 1967 in La Mirada, California. The company initially performed fabrication and installation services for institutional and theatrical products. Several years later, the move was made to South El Monte, California, and the focus of the company shifted from curtain fabrication and installation to manufacturing and distribution of hardware products. The first products introduced were hospital cubicle and stage curtain tracks. The counterweight rigging product line was introduced in 1971. About this time, a nationwide dealer network was established for product distribution.
