Why Us
virginia ironworks four generations

1

We are
four-generations
strong.

Our craft has been handed down over the generations from father to sons. Our long history of working together combined with years of expertise allows us to deliver an outstanding, high quality product for our clients every time.

2

We are
Master Craftsmen.

Virginia Ironworks uses old-world forging methods combined with state-of-the-art technology to provide unique design and incomparable quality. Each member of our staff is highly trained, with proven experience in his or her craft.

3

Our fit and finish
is unmatched.

Today, most rails and gates are mass-produced, often leading to rough finishes and ill-fitting components. At Virginia Ironworks, all of our quality rails and gates are meticulously polished and cleaned before painting to avoid cracking. Our parts and components are guaranteed to align, ensuring joint stability and longevity.

4

Custom Designs.

With our computer-aided design services, architectural resources, vast project library and skilled blacksmiths, we work with you to customize your quality dream project. Bring us your ideas and let us partner with you.

5

Our industrial paint
outperforms
powder-coated finishes.

At Virginia Ironworks, we paint our projects with premium two-component acrylic-modified aliphatic urethane gloss, offering outstanding chemical-abrasion resistance with excellent color and gloss retention. The cured film of this coating results in the best-baked-on finishes and provides outstanding impact and chip resistance. When appropriate, we are also certified to use Coraflon, the next generation of fluoropolymer coatings from PPG, which retains color and gloss longer than conventional coating systems. However, when low cost is imperative, we offer popular powder coating.

Our reputation.

We work with some of the finest builders, architects, interior decorators and landscapers in the country. Our impeccable work and service results in satisfaction and repeat client business.

Our historic
Richmond location.

Richmond, VA, has a long, rich history of unique ornamental iron railings. Our experience with the Colonial, Victorian, Beaux Arts, Second Empire and Greek Revival styles found throughout the city has allowed us to gain knowledge and expertise unlikely to be found elsewhere.
