Bespoke Gates, Railings & Metalwork in Hampshire, Surrey & West Sussex
Handcrafted ironwork, designed for you.
Crafted metalwork for homes that care about the details
At The Local Wrought Iron Company, we design and make bespoke gates, balustrades, handrails and railings for homes where quality matters.
Every piece is made to measure, built to last, and finished with care — not rushed, not outsourced, and never treated as "just another job".
Our work is found on everything, from modest family homes to large private properties, but our approach is always the same: considered design, solid workmanship, and a finish that looks right for the building it belongs to.

Built Properly. Finished Properly
Good metalwork should feel effortless when it's installed — straight lines, clean joints, solid fixings and proportions that make sense.
That doesn't happen by accident.
Behind every project is careful measuring, proper fabrication, and an insistence on doing things the right way, even when nobody will ever see it once it's fitted.
We don't aim to be the cheapest option.
We aim to be the one you don't have to worry about.
A Personal Approach, Backed By A Skilled Team
Although The Local Wrought Iron Company has grown over the years, the standards haven't changed.
Jim Wallace still oversees every project, from initial discussions through to fabrication and installation, making sure the work leaving the workshop is something he's happy to put his name to.
Alongside Jim is a small, experienced team:
- A dedicated fabricator
- An experienced fitter
- And in-house admin, to keep projects running smoothly
It means clients deal with real people, not a sales pipeline — and projects are delivered with clarity, consistency and accountability.
What We Make
We specialise in bespoke metalwork for residential properties, including:
- Balustrades – internal and external, designed for safety and proportion
- Gates – driveway and pedestrian gates made to suit the property, not the catalogue
- Handrails – practical, compliant, and visually considered
- Railings – traditionally made, properly installed, and built to last
Each project is designed around the site, the building, and how the space is used.
Who We're Right For
We're a good fit if you:
- Value workmanship over shortcuts
- Want something made specifically for your home
- Appreciate clear communication and realistic timelines
- Prefer dealing with the people responsible for the work
If you're simply looking for the cheapest option online, we're probably not the right company, and that's okay.
