Iron Railings

Railings are our bread and butter. Whether you are improving the curb appeal of your home or you need a sturdy rail so a family member can get up the front steps safely, we build it right and we build it to last.

What we build

  • Exterior step and porch railings for front entries, side doors, and back decks
  • Interior stair railings and handrails for open staircases and landings
  • Walkway and deck guardrails where there is a drop-off to protect
  • Commercial entry railings built to meet code for public buildings
  • Galvanized railings finished to stand up to New England winters and coastal salt air
  • ADA-compliant grab rails and graspable handrails where accessibility matters

Built for the conditions they live in

A railing on the North Shore takes weather most railings never see. Salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and snow removal all work against a rail that was not finished properly. We work in carbon steel, stainless, and aluminum, and we choose the material and finish based on where the railing is going, not on what is cheapest to fabricate.

Exterior work is typically hot-dip galvanized or primed and finish-painted. Interior rails can be finished to match trim, hardware, or an existing stair system.

Code and safety

Guardrail height, baluster spacing, and handrail graspability are all governed by code, and an inspector will check them. We build to those requirements from the start, so your project passes rather than needing rework. Our team is OSHA certified and treats jobsite safety with the same seriousness as the work itself.

Where we work

Boston Iron Works North serves the North Shore of Massachusetts, southern New Hampshire, and up through York County, Maine. Every job is field-measured on site before anything is fabricated, so what we build fits the property it was made for.
