About Oxford Railings
Specialists in Traditional Architectural Cast Ironwork
Oxford Railings specialises in classic architectural cast iron railing and gate systems, together with a range of other traditional architectural castings.
Established over 39 years ago, we have developed extensive knowledge and experience in the design, supply and reinstatement of traditional cast iron railings and gates, many of whose original designs and features were lost following their widespread removal during the Second World War.
Operating principally throughout Oxfordshire, our work also extends to London and the Home Counties.
Our longstanding relationships with architects, surveyors and heritage professionals have helped encourage a renewed appreciation of traditional cast ironwork and its important contribution to historic architecture.
The reinstatement of appropriately designed railings and gates can greatly enhance the appearance and architectural integrity of period properties, restoring features that have been missing from many historic buildings for generations.
Architectural Accuracy and Traditional Design
We place particular importance on the authenticity of historic designs, the quality of manufacture and the correct proportions, alignment and symmetry of each installation.
These considerations are especially important when working with listed buildings, conservation areas and other historically sensitive settings, where the choice and arrangement of ironwork must complement the character of the property.
Our aim is to ensure that each railing and gate system is not simply a boundary feature, but an appropriate and lasting architectural addition.
Working with Architects and Property Owners
Over the years, we have earned the confidence of architects, surveyors, engineers, specialist builders and private clients through our practical knowledge and attention to detail.
We provide component drawings, dimensional information and visual impressions of our railing and gate systems to assist with design proposals, planning applications and construction arrangements.
We are always happy to liaise with your appointed architect, surveyor or contractor to explore how our cast ironwork can be successfully incorporated into your project.
Our Specialist Focus
Please note: Oxford Railings specialises exclusively in the supply and installation of architectural cast iron products.
We do not undertake general fabrication in steel, wrought iron, aluminium or other forged metals, except where such work is necessary to complement or integrate with our cast iron railing and gate systems.
