One favorite application for hand-worked iron today is to craft intricate and highly detailed spiral staircases. But these staircases offer more than just stunning beauty, they also conserve floor space and meet building codes too.

Furniture made from wrought iron goes back at least as far as the ancient Romans. London's own Westminster Abbey has wrought iron gates from the 1400s.

In oxy-fuel welding, a torch is used to join metals. As in other types of welding, the pieces of material are heated to the melting point, and a filler material is added to create a strong joint. The type of filler material varies according to the materials being welded.

Wrought iron fences are easy to decorate during the holiday season! Garlands, either real or artificial, can easily be wound through the gates for a classy holiday look. The same is true for other seasonal decorations.

There are many types of arc welding including manual, semi-automatic, and fully automated. The welding area is protected by some type of shielding gas, vapor, or slag because of the high temperatures and melting.

Cast iron is a very old technique that was first made in China around 550 BC. Cast iron did not become popular in Europe until The Middle Ages. Finery forges throughout Europe also developed a means to produce wrought iron from cast iron.

Shop welding and fabrication can be used in conjunction with field fabrication. It can also be used in the fabrication of saws, shears, benders, drill presses, and plasma cutting equipment, along with catwalks and steel and stainless steel structures.

Thinking about adding an ornamental iron fence to your property? Why not add fencing around your landscaping and/or garden area. Not only does the metal provide an eye-catching contrast to your plants, but the fencing can provide the perfect support for garden vines.

Guardrails are found along roadways as a safety measure. They work to prevent a vehicle from leaving the roadway especially through a fall caused by a wreck or collision.

The discovery of acetylene gas by British scientist Edmund Davy in 1836 was crucial to the development of modern welding technologies. Oxy-acetylene welding is one of the oldest and most common welding processes, and it’s still used today.

Clean wrought iron fences with a mix of mild detergent and water. A toothbrush can help clean out the nooks. Use caution if washing with a power washer as they can sometimes strip paint.

There are over ninety different welding techniques and processes, each having its own strengths and advantages. Our years of expertise allow us to assess each application and determine which method is best for the job.
