A custom home builder was building a beautiful home for a client in Ventner, New Jersey. The plans called for a custom spiral stair on the oceanfront for the clients to traverse from first floor to 2nd floor terrace. The location right at the beach meant that whatever spiral stairs was installed would be subjected to the harsh elements at the shore.

So we had to use certain alloys of aluminum exclusively, and use a certain finish on the spiral stair to be able to withstand the harsh elements at the shore. Corrosion would be detrimental to the visual aspects of the project and would compromise the safety and rigidity standards needed. They also wanted a more contemporary spiral stair design throughout.

So everything was built in either aircraft grade or marine grade aluminum.

The spiral stair design was also further enhanced with outside stringer and trim detail. Powder coated super-durable white to withstand the elements at the shore, this spiral stair provides beautify and function to this New Jersey Shore Home.

As the owner of an exclusive property, we were looking for custom ironworks replicated from England in the 1860s. The photo we had was sketchy, but these passionate craftsmen knew their business, knew the details of this ancient craft and provided tips on adding authenticity. They provided excellent communication throughout the creativity and design process, then with superb, detailed craftsmanship, they created and installed an exceptional piece of ironwork that is rich in detail, authentic, yet is engineered to withstand use for decades, utilizing 100% recycled material and an eco-friendly durable finish.

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!

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.
