From the front porch of a historic home to a deck overlooking a body of water, railings need to look great and keep residents safe. We fabricate stair railings, porch railings, and balcony systems that protect your family while complementing your architecture. Cable railing systems are often requested for modern homes where sightlines matter, while wrought iron handrails remain popular for traditional properties.
A custom iron gate adds security and unparalleled character to your home with a single project. We design and install driveway gates for estates, pedestrian gates for gardens and walkways, and specialty gates for wine cellars and patios. Automation is available for driveway and entry gates, giving you the convenience of keypad or remote operation along with the strength of steel or wrought iron construction.
Slopes, curves, and irregular layouts on your property call for custom fencing fabrication. Our team designs and builds perimeter fences for residential lots, pool fencing that meets all safety codes, and decorative fencing for courtyards or garden spaces. Each fence is fabricated from raw materials in our shop and finished with protective coatings for longevity.
Replacing wood spindles with metal balusters is one of the most affordable ways to update a staircase or deck. We install straight, twisted, basket, and square balusters in durable powder-coated finishes. The existing handrails and posts remain, which saves both time and cost. Many baluster projects are completed in a single day. This provides an immediate upgrade in appearance and safety.
Our shop also fabricates panels, screens, planter boxes, and other architectural pieces. CNC designs allow for intricate patterns that can provide privacy, shade, or simply add a focal point to a space. Whether you want a traditional ornamental style or a modern geometric cut, we bring your vision to life with professional fabrication.
Founder Cory Carpenter built the business on a foundation of trust, communication, and attention to detail. His background as a U.S. Marine Corps veteran shapes the way every project is handled, and we are 100% committed to integrity and quality. We would be happy to present you with many of our completed projects for review.
We work with steel and wrought iron, finishing each project with powder coating to protect against moisture and temperature changes. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand heavy use and Tennessee’s climate.
Design, fabrication, and installation are all managed by our team. Every client reviews CAD drawings before fabrication begins, ensuring the design meets expectations. This process keeps projects efficient and eliminates confusion.
Our estimates are detailed, covering both materials and labor. We do not surprise clients with hidden costs, and we provide realistic timelines based on the size and complexity of each project.
Prices depend on size, material, and design. A small baluster replacement may be completed for around $1,000, while large driveway gates or multi-section fences can cost several thousand. We provide accurate quotes after reviewing your site and design goals.

Our primary materials are steel and wrought iron. Both are finished with powder coating for durability. Stainless steel and cable systems are also available for projects that require a contemporary look.
Yes. Cable railings are a popular choice in modern homes and lakefront properties. They provide safety without blocking views or light.
Smaller jobs such as baluster replacements are often finished in one day. Larger projects like perimeter fencing or automated gates may take several weeks from design approval to completion.
We include CAD drawings with every project. These allow you to see the design before fabrication begins and make any changes needed.
Powder-coated finishes reduce upkeep significantly. Most projects only require occasional cleaning with mild soap and water to stay in good condition.
