Metalwork for homes in Allendale

Small 1950s bungalows share the streets with newer skinny homes and duplexes built on split lots.

Mid-century homes often have steel railings on front steps that are rusting at the base, so welding repairs or new aluminum railings are common.

Modern infill designs often call for steel railings, canopies and gates made to measure.

Back-lane gates beside a detached garage are a common spot for a custom metal gate.

Separate suite entrances often need railings on outdoor stairs and landings.

Seasonal tip for Edmonton

Outdoor railing installs are easiest from spring to fall. Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles are hard on metal, so spring is a good time to check railings and gates for rust.
