A client had us previously build a magnificent pair of driveway gates for his Pennsylvania property, but he wanted to add more security. So, he asked us to come back and add a custom property fence on both sides of the driveway gates. He had added masonry columns to flank the beautiful driveway, which was somewhat of a challenge to work around. However, the main challenge was the elevation change on both the right and left sides of driveway gate. There was approx. 16 ft of elevation change over the duration of the fenced area.

The design of the additional property fence replicated the existing driveway gate to keep visual appeal. The metal fence pickets were 1” solid aircraft grade aluminum pickets, with a custom cast picket on top. We created a custom cast aluminum quatrefoil, and hundreds of custom cast collars. We even created a majestic collar that added depth and character to the property fence design. For the wow factor, we custom twisted some 1 1/8” sq. 8 filament baskets.

The property fence posts were created in structural 6” posts. We designed the posts with a detailed shoulder that utilized the underside of typical caprail, to provide a millwork detail look. Then, with a custom machined neck, and an 8” ball on top, the property fence was finished.

We then powder-coated the fence in a statuary bronze color, and air-brushed with a gold overlay. With the non-corrosive material, plus the durable and eco-friendly powder-coat finish, this property fence will provide many, many years of privacy, security, and beauty.

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!
