Exterior Railings, Fences and Gates each have three photo pages, and Hand Railings and Interior Railings each have two. These pages are photo galleries only. They carry a heading and images, and no written descriptions, dimensions, materials lists, finish options, prices or cost information. The site therefore shows what has been built but does not publish specifications or rates for any individual item. The about page adds that the ironwork made includes hand railings, guard railings, gates, fences, Juliette balconies, furniture and specialty items, in both traditional hand-forged wrought iron and contemporary styles. Because each job is custom, the site directs anyone wanting an estimate or a quote for a driveway gate, iron fence, stair railing, balcony or piece of iron furniture to contact the shop.
