When you’re building your dream home, you are often consumed with important decisions such as the floorplan, the materials, and design features. But what’s one design feature that can set apart your home or business? Custom metal railings.
From balcony railings to gates to handrails, we can make your home or business shine. A beautiful, creative wrought iron railing can easily turn heads and bring attention to a space, making you even more proud of your custom build.
At Mark One Metal Works, we specialize in building custom-made handrails for both interior and exterior use. We love when a homeowner has an idea in mind for a type of railing but we can also help with the concept phase as well. Mark and his team are experienced with working with contractors and can make even their wildest ideas come to life.
Metal Railings
There are many different styles of railing and when it comes to custom ideas, no design is out of the question. We fully weld our stair railings to ensure a solid, safe, and long-lasting finish custom-fit to the measurements of your home and business.
Railings can be made out of a variety of metals with different embellishments like leaves and flowers. Ornamental features like balusters, scrolls, balls, and more can turn something as practical as a hand railing into a work of art. We can also powder-coat or provide any other desired finish so that our products fit within the desired design.
Some metals that we have built railings with include:
- Wrought Iron
- Brass
- Stainless Steel
- Bronze
- Aluminum
- Metal Combination!
Interior Railings vs. Exterior Railings
Different applications for a railing may call for different materials. For example, a cable railing is a good option for a deck railing because it provides security and durability from the elements as well as an un-obstruction to your amazing view. An art deco custom design could be best for a staircase railing to become a one-of-a-kind statement piece for the home. A flat bar railing insert could also be a good option for an interior railing as it can serve as a metal handrail for kids walking up and down stairs.
Ornamental iron pickets or spindles on a fence is an excellent option for outdoor use that provide pleasing aesthetic and security, and we’ve even seen some pretty cool industrial pipe railings for businesses like breweries or restaurants.
Railing Design
At Mark One Metals, we can draw in 2D or 3D with our CAD capabilities. That means that you are able to see your railing ideas before the final build. We love to be included in the design process with a contractor or home or business owner. To see a custom metal fabrication idea come to life is one of our favorite things!
We can also build prototypes and examples before the final product so that you can see and feel the material before you commit to a complete railing.
Railing Build
With our in-house CNC plasma cutter, we can cut metals to the exact dimensions for a custom build. That means our work is accurate and precise and there will be no questions that the railings can fit the dimensions.
CNC refers to Computer Numerical Control, which means that a computer is used to direct the metal cutting process based on numerical codes and exact measurements. Your interior or exterior railings will fit perfectly and an exact fit is imperative for a safe railing and one that lasts the test of time.
