Custom Modern Railing In Sewell, New Jersey

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts took an empty stairway and turned it into something spectacular. This is a complete metal railing with a metal top moulding. This particular railing had to be measured with exact detail. Lomonaco's Iron Concepts drew the entire stairway on paper in the fabrication shop. We then proceeded to cut all vertical balusters to the proper angle, drill and tap the top of the baluster for field assembly.

The homeowner wanted this railing to have a modern feel to it. The designers at Lomonaco's Iron Concepts went to work and used a 1" x 2" heavy wall rectangular tube for he handrail.

The entire rail system was assembled on site and installed with seamless precision. Lomonaco's Iron Concepts powder coated this railing in a Designer Gun Metal finish. The Gun Metal finish is becoming so very popular in our stairway makeovers that we now stock it.

If you are interested in a custom stairway makeover in your home call Lomonaco's Iron Concepts today or email me directly at John@LomonacosIronConcepts.com and I'll personally make sure your information gets forwarded to the proper department.

Custom Driveway Gates

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts can make your driveway entrance go from bland to grand. The designers at Lomonaco's Iron Concepts have been designing custom iron work both interior and exterior for their clients for over 20 years.

As you can  see in the photo to the right, this set of driveway gates spans over 14' wide and 8' tall. The design work is made from 5/8" solid square bar and is completely hand forged by the our artisans.

There is no detail that is not considered. The bottom of the driveway gates has a 1/8" solid steel kick plate with medallions bolted on.

We were given a rough drawing by the homeowner of what they were looking for. They wanted something decorative but not to the point where your vision of the home would be taunted.

I think we pulled off what they were looking for. All the scroll work in these custom made driveway gates is hand forged and the gates are powder coated in a semi-gloss satin black finish. If you would like to have a set of custom made driveway gates on your home, call Lomonaco's Iron Concepts now and save at 856-740-1071 or email  me directly at John@LomonacosIronConcepts.com and I will make sure your information gets to forwarded to the proper department.

Timeless Look in Deptford, New Jersey

This home in Deptford, New Jersey was taken to another level. Lomonaco's Iron Concepts & Home Decor installed all new handrail ( #6900 Raleigh Jr. Profile ) my favorite and signature handrail. All new reeded newel post ( #4810-R ) with all posts being attached under the handrail for a continuous flow.

As you can see in the photo we have all kinds of curves and jump ups in the handrail configuration to create that continuous flow. Lomonaco's Iron Concepts & Home Decor is one of the only stair companies out there that specialize in mounting the post under the handrail.

As you can see in this photo we used solid iron balusters from the Twist Collection by House Of Forgings. The iron balusters are in our designer Copper Vein finish and it is one of the oldest designer colors out there that has been able to test the taste of time.
Lomonaco's Iron Concepts only uses solid iron balusters in all of our railing designs. The design in this photo in one of the most popular design configurations I install. To me you get a lot of bang for your buck by mixing the Twist & Scroll Series together to form one beautiful looking stair rail.

Iron Balusters, Wood Handrail & Treads in Haddon Twp, New Jersey

In this home in Haddon Twp. everything was decorated beautifully except the stairway. My job was to take this ugly stairway from blah to ta dah! We removed green carpet from the stairs and installed new solid maple treads and stained and painted risers in poplar. By removing carpet from your stairway and replacing it with hardwood steps it gives you the illusion that your stairway is bigger than it seems.

On this job all the wood rail components came from Carolina Stairs. They are my number one supplier for wood rail components. At Lomonaco's Iron Concepts we only use the finest of materials on the market and never jeopardize quality for price. Carolina's wood components are very consistent in quality,dimension, grain and color.

The iron balusters I used on this job came from House Of Forgings. They are my most popular supplier of powder coated balusters however at Lomonaco's Iron Concepts we have the ability to custom powder coat iron components for stair rail parts to custom table bases, coffee tables, mirror frames and much much more.

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts is one of the leading suppliers of  powder coated balusters from many of the finest manufacturers in the world. We have the ability to import iron and aluminum balusters from Canada, Italy, New England and France. These countries make the finest quality iron balusters on the market today.

If you are in need of a new rail system, new stairway or just want to switch out your builders grade white wooden spindles to powder coated iron balusters, Lomonaco's Iron Concepts is the place to go. Give our office a call at 856-740-1071 or email me directly at John@LomonacosIronConcepts.com and I'll personally make sure your information goes to the proper personnel and they will contact you to set up for you free in-home consultation.

Exterior Aluminum Railings in Shamong, New Jersey

Here we are again in Shamong, New Jersey. We went back to the home where we installed the iron balcony rail and trellis. the customer wanted to make the area by the front doors look more estately looking and also pull some of the elements from the balcony rail above and incorporate them into the step railings.

At Lomonaco's Iron Concepts this task is not much of a challenge. With over 20+ years in the ornamental iron business we have the experience to satisfy even the most complicated of challenges. We used the same profile bars in the step rails as we did in the balcony rail ( 3/4" square furniture grade tubing ) only in the rails they are aluminum not steel. In fact the entire rail system is fabricated using all aluminum components.

We used large square posts ( 2 1/2" ) along with decorative ball caps to give them the eastately look they wanted. By using aluminum one of the key benefits is they are maintenance free! That's right you heard me correctly, they are maintenance free. No more painting your exterior railings every couple of years because of rust or peeling paint.

If you would like to have Lomonaco's Iron Concepts come out to look at your iron work needs give the office a call at 856-740-1071 or email me directly at John@LomonacosIronConcepts.com and I'll personally make sure your information gets to the proper personnel.

Custom Iron Work In Shamong, New Jersey

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts designed this custom balcony rail and trellis. The client said to me John, I need you to make my boring front to my house come to life. I responded, no problem, we will design something that will make your house go from ordinary to extraordinary.

I went to work for my customer and within a week or so time I had a design that satisfied the customers request. the main frame of the balcony was fabricated out of 1 1/4" square furniture grade tubing. The bowed bars are 3/4" square furniture grade tubing. All the scroll work on the balcony rail and trellis is made out of solid steel and welded together to form one solid panel.



As you can see the balcony rail has made a dramatic effect to the exterior of this home. The balcony rail is put through a three stage automatic wash system to optimize the cleaning process and prepare the rail for painting.

We then proceeded to apply a baked on powder coated finish in satin black. Black is one of the richest colors and it withstands the test of time.





 The iron trellis is fabricated with 1" square furniture grade steel tubing. All the bars that make up the grid pattern are 1/2" square furniture grade steel tubing. The knuckles welded onto the bars that make up part of the design of the trellis are solid cast iron knuckles and are completely welded top and bottom for strength and protection against corrosion.

The scroll pattern in the trellis is the same design and method as used in the balcony rail above. the trellis is wedged into the ground with long legs extending down into the earth and the top is bolted to the house.

All areas where the iron would be touching the stucco on the house is protected with heavy gauge rubber so the newly custom iron pieces wouldn't get scratched during installation. All the fasteners used on exterior iron work is stainless steel so there is no rusting issue. As you can see Lomonaco's Iron Concepts take more precautionary steps to assure complete customer satisfaction not only in the design and appearance of the custom iron work but also in the functionality and astectics.

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts custom made this iron panel from a picture out of a magazine. Now the iron panel was not designed to match the picture given exactly. The homeowner gave some leway for Lomonaco's Iron Concepts to put there individual stamp on the design.


As you can see this decorative panel is used as the focal point of this balcony rail overlooking the family room.

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts fabricated this decorative iron panel using all solid steel components, bending them the necessary angles and curving them to the proper radius' to form this beautiful piece of iron art.

This panel was cleaned up by hand by the artisians at Lomonaco's Iron Concepts. It was then put through a three stage automatic wash system which ensures a perfectly clean surface for painting.

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts then proceeded to apply a decorative baked on satin black powder coated finish to this beautiful piece of art. The moment the panel came out of  the oven this piece of art came to life. Once the homeowner saw the panel installed in their home they were amazed at the dramatic effect it has on the entire rail system. It is truely the focal point of the entire rail system.

Lomonaco's Iron Concepts while delivering the table and installing the glass also moved the existing mirror on the wall up 2" as asked by the designer Melanie.
