Craftsmanship

Our iron railings and staircases are more than just functional—they're works of art. Each piece is meticulously crafted by Pennsylvania Dutch artisans, combining traditional techniques with modern precision. From intricate scrollwork to clean, contemporary lines, we ensure every design reflects unparalleled attention to detail and quality.

Durability

We use only the highest-quality wrought iron and apply advanced, weather-resistant finishes to ensure your railings or staircase withstand the test of time. Designed to endure harsh weather conditions, resist rust, and maintain its structural integrity, our products are an investment in long-term durability and peace of mind.

Customization

No two properties are alike, and your railings or staircase should reflect your unique vision. Whether you prefer sleek modern aesthetics, ornate traditional details, or something entirely unique, we offer a wide range of styles, patterns, and finishes to bring your vision to life. Choose from powder-coated finishes, decorative accents, and custom dimensions to complement your property perfectly.

Functionality

Our railings and staircases don’t just look stunning—they’re designed to keep your property secure and require minimal upkeep. With advanced locking mechanisms, sturdy construction, and finishes that resist wear and tear, you can enjoy a perfect balance of beauty and practicality. Spend less time on maintenance and more time enjoying your enhanced property.

Our Awards

Compass has won numerous Top Job Awards from the NOMMA (National Ornamental and Miscellaneous Metals Association) — a contest that invites national and international participants to enter their best projects and compete for Gold, Silver, and Bronze awards in various categories. The competition is judged by peers in the ironworks community and is a true reflection of craftsmen judging craftsmanship.

Compass Ironworks first entered the Top Job Competition in 2013 and won two awards. A hiatus followed in 2014. We returned in 2015 to win another two awards.

In 2016, Compass won Gold, Silver and Bronze as well as best of the best — The Mitch Heitler Award for Excellence. This award is given to the best gold awarded project of all in a given year, and is evaluated by a panel of expert craftsman. Compass won the award from replicating 14 security doors from Italy dating back to 1762. Extreme details for forging the scrollwork, hinges, latches, the door-frame, and the glass panels were paramount to the husband and wife team. The attention to detail and high caliber of craftsmanship was what grabbed the attention of the jurors and why they awarded Compass the highest award achievable in metal craftsmanship.

Since then, Compass has won many more awards within NOMMA Top Job competitions in beautiful creations of Staircases, Railings, Gates, artwork, and restorations of ironwork.

Jacqui Collins & Greg McBride

We had a railing, designed, created, and installed by Compass Ironworks. Amos and Aaron were extremely professional. They kept us informed of how things were progressing. We even visited the shop when the railing was almost complete. We HIGHLY recommend Compass Ironworks! We have had several people knock on our door to ask about who made our beautiful railing. Thank you for your hard work!

Tracy Tanner

We are so pleased with our custom deck railing created by Compass Ironworks. The design and finish are perfect, just what we envisioned. It was a pleasure working with Compass Ironworks, a company that takes pride in their work.

Courtney Lederer

We had a rather unusual design for our front railings, but the folks at Compass Ironworks took it in stride, figured out how to make it and delivered EXACTLY what we were hoping for — all at a reasonable price. Plus they're just plain nice to deal with.

Ken Rampolla

Compass Iron does phenomenal work, on time, on budget, with an unexpected creative flair. All of the craftsmen at Compass take great pride in delivering an exceptional value, with friendly Pennsylvania charm. I would not hesitate doing more projects with Compass and recommending them to anyone who desires first-class iron works.

Typically, all interior work is iron. For the exterior, an aircraft-grade aluminum is predominant, especially at the shore. We also work with bronze, brass, stainless steel, and other exotic metals.
