Custom Railings, Gates & Metalwork

Services We Offer

Custom Handrail & Stair Railing Fabrication and Installation A handrail should do more than keep you from falling — it should look like it belongs on your staircase rather than like it was grabbed off a shelf and bolted in place because the building inspector required it. Ironclad designs and fabricates custom handrails and stair railings in steel, iron, aluminum, and mixed materials including wood and metal combinations, built to fit your specific staircase dimensions, angle, and aesthetic. Whether you're replacing a builder-grade rail that never suited the space, adding a railing to a staircase that currently has none, or designing something specific for a renovation or new addition, we measure carefully, fabricate precisely, and install with the attention to fit and finish that makes the difference between a railing that looks custom and one that obviously isn't. For installations involving open landings or elevated platforms where permits or engineered specifications are required, we'll identify that upfront and coordinate appropriately before work begins.

Iron Gates & Entryway Features A well-designed gate does something that no amount of landscaping or exterior painting can fully replicate — it defines the entry to your property and signals something about the character of what's behind it. Ironclad designs and fabricates ornamental iron and steel gates for driveways, walkways, garden entries, and decorative applications, built to your specific opening dimensions and designed to complement your property's existing architectural style. We handle everything from simple single-swing pedestrian gates to double driveway gates with decorative detailing, including the hardware, hinges, and latching systems that make a gate function as well as it looks. Smart lock and keypad integration is available for gates where electronic access control is desired — a natural extension of our Electronics & Home Automation services that turns a beautiful gate into a fully functional access control point.

Custom Pergola & Carport Steel Frames A steel-framed pergola or carport is categorically more durable than a wood-framed equivalent — resistant to rot, insects, and the warping and splitting that eventually compromises wood structures exposed to weather over time. Ironclad fabricates and installs custom steel frames for pergolas, carports, and similar outdoor structures, designed to your specific footprint, height, and configuration requirements. We work with homeowners on the design to ensure the frame suits the intended use — whether that's a freestanding carport that protects two vehicles, a pergola frame designed to support climbing plants and a shade canopy, or a covered outdoor entertaining structure that extends your living space into the yard. For structures requiring building permits, we'll identify that requirement upfront and help coordinate the permitting process before fabrication begins.

Wrought Iron Repair & Restoration Wrought iron that's been in place for years develops rust, loose joints, damaged sections, and failing paint or coating that makes it look far worse than its underlying structure actually is. Ironclad repairs and restores wrought iron fences, gates, railings, and decorative features — grinding and treating rust back to clean metal, rewelding joints that have separated or cracked, fabricating and fitting replacement sections where originals are too damaged to save, and refinishing restored pieces with appropriate primer and coating to protect against future corrosion. Restoring wrought iron is almost always dramatically more cost effective than replacing it entirely, and a properly restored wrought iron piece can look better than new and last another generation with appropriate maintenance. If you have ornamental iron on your property that's been deteriorating and you've been putting off dealing with it, a restoration assessment from Ironclad is the right first step.
