Ornamental Step Railing on a Brick Colonial
Project Overview
Ornamental step railing with a decorative scroll centre panel installed down the front steps of a brick colonial with an arched window and paver walk.
Analysis
The homeowners wanted the character of traditional ironwork without the maintenance of an old rail, so the design pairs a scroll centrepiece with a modern finish.
Process
Design approval, site measurement, shop fabrication, finishing, one-day install, and a final alignment pass.
Outcome
A traditional ornamental railing that matches the colonial brickwork and finishes the entry.
