Traditional Iron Railings
Traditional Railings
Traditional Iron Railings are all bespoke. We manufacture to our customers specifications. We have a wealth of experience and can propose suitable designs that suit the setting whether in the town or countryside. The traditional method is to drill the rails into coping stones, this is a time consuming but precision task which leaves a seamless and elegant town railing. We can also manufacture in panels for erection on site.
A quick potted history of Traditional Iron Railings – We always think of Traditional Iron Railings or Town Railings as being Black – this was not always so. The Metal Railings used to be painted in a variety of colours, in the early nineteenth century invisible greens were popular, allowing the railings to blend into a natural background. Other popular colours were dark blue, red and chocolate brown. However the defining moment for the colour of English Steel Railings followed the death of Prince Albert in 1861. Out of respect doors, window frames and railings were all painted black and the trend has continued to this day. We have worked with clients who have both preferred black and other colours.

The best companies we have worked with
The Traditional Company is right up there with the best companies we have worked with. Charlie and his team were really professional, knowledgeable, flexible, helpful and we have all been really impressed with the work they churned through. The fencing looks really great, it is somewhat addictive, and I am sure we will be ordering more in the future.

We have a fence!!
Our boundary between next door and us was in a sorry state. There was an old rusty dangerous fence scattered all along and then patchworked together with wire and plastic… ivy overgrown and the lime trees in an overgrown sorry state…
But nooowwww we have such clean fresh line with beautiful estate fence, welded and painted on sight thanks to @thetraditionalco We absolutely love it!!
We now need to collect all the bricks, dead wood and leaves etc… rake it all over and seed to the line of the trees to get the grass back. We will then have the lime trees tidied up properly in the autumn once the birds have vacated… it for now it’s just perfect!!

I just cannot fault them
It is not often you find a company like “The Traditional Company”. I just cannot fault them. A great team on site and in the office. Nothing too much trouble. Incredibly neat and tidy and, most important of all, a fantastic end result. A beautifully made quality fence that looks like it will last forever!
