A builder and client in New Jersey were upgrading a basement space and were searching for a glass wall to create a barrier to control temperature and humidity for the best wine presentation. And at the same time allow colleagues and visitors to the space the opportunity to view the extensive wine collection.

We were approached by the builder last July and while not in our typical realm of building iron gate, privacy fence, stair railing, or modern staircases, our experience in iron railing design was an attribute in obtaining the project.

The entire structure was designed in aircraft grade aluminum, similar to deck railing on shore homes. The intention was a non-corrosive material that could be assembled on-site with counter sunk/hidden fasteners. All of the glass edges were sealed and the installation fulfilled their design vision of an industrial look similar to old factory windows from a century ago. And with the glass wall built around a corner, visitors can now view this beautiful private wine collection from more angles, in this New Jersey home.

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!
