Custom wrought iron railings, gates and fences for Etobicoke homes and condos, from The Kingsway to Long Branch.
Etobicoke covers a wide range of homes: Tudor-revival and stone houses in The Kingsway and Humber Valley Village, post-war bungalows in Sunnylea and Islington Village, lakeside homes in Mimico and Long Branch, and condo towers at Humber Bay Shores. We design custom wrought iron railings that suit each style.
Older homes often need porch and step railings replaced, and traditional wrought iron with simple pickets and finials is a natural fit for stone and brick facades. Many Kingsway and Humber Valley homeowners also add custom iron gates and front-yard fences, and lakeside properties benefit from railings designed to resist wind and moisture.
As part of the City of Toronto, Etobicoke projects follow Toronto's building and fence rules, which we take into account in every design.

Answers about Etobicoke wrought iron railings, gates and fences, from the Kingsway to Long Branch.
Tudor-revival and stone homes look best with substantial, traditional ironwork: solid square or round pickets, heavier top rails, decorative finials and a few scroll accents rather than busy patterns. Matte black is the classic finish. We often design matching step railings, gates and fences so the front of the house feels cohesive.
It depends on the project. Replacing an existing railing on the same steps often does not need a permit, but new decks, balconies, raised porches and below-grade entrances usually require a building permit from Toronto Building. Fences are governed by the City of Toronto's fence by-law, which limits heights (typically lower in front yards than back yards), and pool enclosures must meet the pool by-law, including self-closing, self-latching gates. Etobicoke is part of the City of Toronto, so fences and pool enclosures are covered by the Toronto Municipal Code, and some properties are within heritage conservation districts or designated individually. We check the rules for your address during the consultation and design to them.
Yes. Lakeside homes see more wind and moisture, so we design railings with closed welded joints and good drainage, anchor them securely, and finish them with a durable powder coat. Regular rinsing and quick touch-ups keep the finish sealed for decades.
