The client was building a beautiful shore home and wrought Iron decor was desired to accentuate the architecture. But due to the harsh elements at the shore, we had to design everything in marine grade and aircraft grade aluminum. Powder-coated correctly, the wrought iron gate design was indistinguishable from Iron.

This portion of the project entailed a complete, functioning pool gate, complete with self-closing and self-latching hardware. Plus, artistic forged iron grills on the double entry doors. We had the design elements tie into the balcony railing design, plus added design details, inspired by Samuel Yellins work. We added twisted scrolls, scored banding ornamental acanthus leaves and rosette’s to really have a visual wow factor. The builder and client were thrilled, it gave them similar design as terrace railing and pool fence, and powder-coat to CIW 2604-A specs, should be maintenance free and gives both parties great peace of mind for finish longevity.

We love our front porch railings! They certainly add a lot of beauty to our home and they fit the period of our home. When elderly guests come to visit, it’s always good that they have something strong to hold onto, and they fit perfectly what we were looking for. Thanks to everyone on your team for their artistic work. We are very happy with our final products!

Compass delivered absolutely amazing, high quality product. They are true masters.  I am also pleased with their timely communication and guidance, as we worked through the design and transaction process. 

I would definitely recommend them and work with them again.

What an excellent experience we had with Compass Ironworks!! We have spent four years restoring and remodeling a Pre-Civil War home in North Alabama. We have learned a lot through the process and made more than a few mistakes. But choosing Compass Ironworks was not one of those. From the very first interaction, Amos and his team have been a pleasure to work with. Old homes are quirky! No right angles. No two measurements are precisely the same. So using a company in Pennsylvania was a risk. And we are SO GLAD we took that risk! Absolutely flawless!! The designs, the collaboration, the execution, the QUALITY, the timeline and the finished product were all first class!!! We will absolutely choose Compass again for our next project and recommend them to anyone who asks.

The railing is installed and is beautiful … a work of art, to be sure!

My expectations were high and certainly met. I was able to visit the shop and see the railing in progress. It was a thrill to see it then, and very exciting when it arrived at my home.

I have already recommended you to others!
