Jim was right on time for our estimate appointment. The window covers and railing were ready right on time, and installed in a very timely manner. They look fantastic! We get lots of complements on them. My only complaint is that the "hatch" on the window cover that allows you to get down into the window bay is not right above the ladder, and instead is right next to it. But, it's close enough that you can still get to the ladder through the hatch. We also called two other wrought iron companies for quotes. One of them never followed up, and the other one gave us a quote that was almost half of Anchor Iron's. BUT, there was no hatch, and I just didn't get a good feeling about the other company. So, we went with Anchor Iron instead. I'm very glad we did. I'd recommend them to anyone!
Description of Work: Jim installed two wrought iron egress window covers in our yard, to cover big drops down to the basement windows. Jim also installed a railing on a small deck outside our sliding glass side door. Jim also measured & quoted us on a fence, but we decided to go with a wood privacy fence instead.

We called for an estimate, Mark Roberts showed up on time, and measured and provided an estimate on the spot. After we made our decision, we sent in our deposit and received confirmation that it was received. We received a call as promised when the railings were being constructed. The installation took place earlier than promised (a very pleasant surprise). We were called before the installer arrived. The installation was quick and flawless, you'd never know that the railings were installed years after the steps. There is no visible evidence that a hole was drilled and filled with concrete. It looks wonderful!
Description of Work: We had railings put in on three outside stairways.

We wanted to refinish a wrought iron table and chairs (6) and wanted an estimate. The estimated cost was more that we wanted to spend, but the people we talked with were very courteous and did not give us a brushoff. We emailed a picture of the items to them to look at, which they did. We would definitely recommend them as we felt our business would be appreciated.

They did beautiful work--they came when they said they would, and made a childproof gate for us that matched the railing we had installed in the foyer. We're very pleased.

Jim came out and gave me an estimate. He brought samples of his work and gave suggestions as to what would work best for our steps. Once we decided to move forward with the work, we scheduled the install; the wait was about one month. Jim works rain or shine, cold or hot. He came out and installed the railings himself. We are very pleased with their function and appearance. He clearly takes pride in his work.

When the balcony was first installed it was not what we were expecting and did not appear to have been constructed according to the architectural elevations. We and our architect told our general contractor about our dissatisfaction. The general contractor wrote us (the homeowners) an e-mail and said that this is what it's going to be and basically like it or lump it. We eventually contacted the rep at Anchor who came out and agreed to fix it. Anchor created a new railing exactly as we had wanted. It is beautiful and we're very pleased with the outcome. Anchor iron remained focused on providing quality craftsmanship and keeping the customer satisfied. It made all the difference in the world.

Our rental property was inspected by the city of Mpls. We were ordered to bring the interior and exterior stair railings up to code. We called 3 companies and Anchor Iron was the only company to return our call. Anchor Iron came out to the property to get the measurements. They read over the letter that the city gave us and knew exactly what to do, but also worked with us to get the style and color we liked. In a week or two they mailed us the estimate. Even though we did not get any other estimates (because nobody else returned our calls), we thought their estimates were very reasonable. Anchor Iron was prompt and courteous.
Description of Work: Replaced an existing split entry wrought iron step railing with a customized wrought iron railing ($1,020), and installed a customized exterior wrought iron hand stair railing ($245) according to Mpls. rental code specs. Inserted customized fireplace door with mesh curtain ($720).

This company is great. The work was performed on time and the installation was excellent. The railings are beautiful and sturdy. My front steps are now safe to go up and down again. GREAT JOB! The saleman and installer were excellent. They explained things well and answered all of our questions. We really appreciated the very extensive manual photo album the salesman had of the available custom railings. This made it easy to pick out the railings we desired.

Jim Roberts, the President and owner was very knowledgeable, and friendly both when he arrived at my house to give me an estimate and when he installed the railing. The railing is very attractive looking. He had a very large book of samples of his work, which gives somebody lots of ideas of what they may want to do.
