"Metal is an expensive material, and suspiciously cheap gates, like cheap railings, are rarely worth the money."

"Metal gates require highly skilled work by a blacksmith [fashioning] individually designed or existing patterns."

As befits a piece of hand forged bespoke ironwork, Anwick Forge’s exterior ironwork is produced with longevity in mind. All our work enjoys a superior quality robust construction and we install it in person using only the highest quality and most appropriate fixing materials and techniques.

We finish all our exterior ironwork to a standard that ensures maximum corrosion resistance. Our exterior ironwork is usually hot dip galvanized and then spray- painted in house, which provides an attractive and extremely durable finish. We do not share Henry Ford’s view that ‘you can have any colour as long as it’s black’: our paints are available in an extensive range of shades.

Items that we forge in stainless steel are typically finished with a hi-tech process that gives a fantastically bright and shiny finish that will not fade or discolour. Alternatively, we can also offer a softer, brushed finish, if you prefer.

Please contact us if you have another type of finish in mind.

Should the exterior ironwork you have in mind require planning permission then we would be happy to handle your application for you. For further details of this service, please go to Complementary Services.

To see some examples of our exterior ironwork, please visit our gallery. Do bear in mind, though, that our gallery is not intended as a catalogue as the range of items available from Anwick Forge is almost limitless. If you cannot see what you would like us to make, the answer to the question ‘can you make me a ...?’ is always ‘yes!’.
