Balconies

Balconies

We can design & build a self supporting balcony or add a rail to an existing one. From the simple to the ornate, we custom fabricate everything in house. Consider adding ornamental iron finials or decorative iron balusters to your iron balcony to customize it to your liking. You can go for an antique iron replica design, a simple and functional design, or a completely original iron design.

Juliet Balconies

Juliet Balconies

A juliet balcony (also called a faux balcony) is just a guardrail that keeps you from falling out of an exterior door when it is open. When used on the exterior of a home, it serves two purposes. It aids in security protection to deter intruders, but it can also add curb appeal. There are numerous design options that are both functional and beautiful. A faux balcony rail is not meant to stand on and does not have a floor, they are strictly a guardrail.

Modern Drive Gate & Railing Design

Modern Drive Gate and Railing Design

This is a custom drive gate and fence for an existing Clayton home. The shape of the windows on the home inspired a major design element for us to focus on for the fence. We were given strict orders to not exceed a 3”opening anywhere on the design. The homeowner wanted to provide a safe enclosure for their small dogs, while at the same time add to the curb appeal of the home.

Custom Portico Entrance Gates

Custom Portico Entrance Gates

This customer’s home had two portico entrances. For security, they wanted a set of double gates in each area that complimented each other in design. The existing windows on the home had an arched pattern that was the inspiration for the iron transom at the top of the front entrance gates.

Farm Entrance Gates

Farm Entrance Gates

We were asked to fabricate this wrought iron property gate with a design to complement the existing wood fence (shown on the right). The entire gate is made of steel to simulate the look of wood. The frame was made from 6” x 2” rectangle tubing, the X-pattern was made from 5-1/2” x ¼” flat bar and we used 1” tubing for the pickets.

Custom Iron Table Bases

Custom Iron Table Bases

Have you been searching online for the right size table base but can’t find what you are looking for? Sometimes the only option is to special order. This customer had us build a custom table base for an L-shaped bench seating in their kitchenette. The design was inspired by the pattern in the kitchen cabinetry. The base easily supports the 250 lbs solid wood top.

Creative Exterior Lighting Solutions

Creative Exterior Lighting Solutions

Here are two creative ways to incorporate lighting into your new fence line or deck railing panels. This custom fence has a light pole built-in. It was made for a home in Lafayette Square neighborhood.

Spiral Stair For West County Home

Spiral Stair For West County Home

This recent project took a lot of coordination and planning. This is a 6’ diameter spiral that has a 5-1/2” center column and smooth steel plate treads with a laser cut pattern in them. The entire layout was critical for several reasons.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Everything looks great on the railing repairs! Really happy with the work. Whoever does your welding is fantastic. Can’t tell there’s even a seam where they cut it off. Thanks!

We recently had Classic Metal Craft design, fabricate and install a spiral staircase in our home. It was complicated because it was a replacement as opposed to new work. Pete walked us through design options and helped us create a real masterpiece. Virtually every component was customizable. When installation day came, we knew they meant business when a team of 7 guys showed up to make it all a reality. This is the third job CMC has done for our family, and surely not the last!
