Strong, simple, and engineered for real life. Custom iron railings that make your Idaho home safer, better looking, and ready for decades of use.
Railings, but actually thought through
Most railings are an afterthought. You need them for safety, so you install whatever the catalog shows and try not to think about it again. We look at railings the way an engineer looks at hardware: structure, safety, durability, then aesthetics layered on top. The result is ironwork that feels solid in your hand, looks intentional, and works for years in Idaho’s climate.
Interior railings: design plus physics
Inside the home, railings do a surprising amount of visual work. They cut through the space, tie your floors together, and quietly tell people what kind of house this is. We design interior railings from first principles:
- Modern: clean lines, minimal visual noise, simple geometry
- Traditional: classic profiles, curves, and details that feel timeless
- Themed: if you want something that reflects your story or your architecture, we can build it
We look at your stairs, landings, and balconies like a small structural system. Height, spacing, and handrail profiles are chosen so they feel natural to use and align with current Idaho building practices for residential stairs. If you have a loose or outdated wood railing, we can replace it with iron that instantly makes the whole staircase feel like an upgrade, not just a repair. Before and after stairway projects are where you really see the difference.
Exterior railings: built for Idaho winters
Outside, railings are in a constant war with gravity, moisture, and temperature swings. Snow loads, ice, and UV all want to win. So we design deck and porch railings that treat Idaho winters as a requirement, not an edge case.
- Posts and connections that feel rock solid
- Layouts that shed water instead of trapping it
- Designs that work with concrete, wood, or masonry
Whether it is a front step guardrail, a wraparound deck, or a raised patio, the goal is the same: it should feel safe in January, look good in July, and not worry you in between.
Rust, coatings, and long term survival
Steel has one main enemy: corrosion. You do not beat rust with hope, you beat it with preparation and good coatings. We take the boring part seriously so you do not have to.
- Proper surface prep
- Quality primers and paints or powder coat options
- Clear expectations on how to maintain and when to touch up
You get a railing that is meant to last, not something that looks good for one season and then starts to fail.
Curb appeal that is actually functional
A well designed railing upgrades your house visually, but it also signals something else: attention to detail. Straight lines, consistent spacing, solid welds, and clean connections all show up in how people feel when they walk up to your home.
Instead of dropping in a generic system, we design around your specific house. Siding, trim, steps, and entry layout all inform the final design. The goal is simple: when people see it, it looks like it was meant to be there from day one.
If you are ready to upgrade your stairs, deck, or porch, we can walk the space with you, talk through options, and build a custom iron railing that fits your home, your style, and your budget.
