Pro Metal Ironworks Inc

A homeowner left with mobility problems after an illness had no railing on their front steps, which made simply going outside a risk. In a March 2026 review, they wrote that Pro Metal Ironworks came out the same day they called with a proposal. Railings are most of what this shop makes: measured fast, built fast, bolted down hard. Pro Metal is a Littleton iron shop that fabricates and installs railings, handrails, stairs, gates, fencing, balconies, fire escapes and structural beams for homes and businesses, and it says it is a family business of 15 years. In the reviews, Vini builds and installs while Aline measures and runs the office side; seven reviewers name them both, and one in December 2024 had Vinni turn up with his son to do the install. Speed is what customers keep writing down. A February 2025 reviewer asked for a quote and had someone out the next day to measure, with installation a few days after that. A May 2025 reviewer got a written estimate right away and the railing finished in one day. A Thumbtack reviewer in March 2024 met Tony a day after putting in the request and had the railing designed, created and installed in four days. The work gets described as solid, not just quick. A July 2025 Thumbtack reviewer expected brackets and instead watched the crew drill into concrete — the rail does not wiggle. A May 2025 customer called their new railings as solid as a rock. A June 2025 reviewer had Aline measure, took her recommendation of carbonated iron rails, had them installed in a single visit, and passed inspection. It is not all straight porch rails. In an April 2026 review, a couple described a spiral staircase Vini built and installed onto their existing second-level porch, on a site they called a bit of a challenge. A June 2024 reviewer had a set custom made for front steps; a September 2025 reviewer brought photos of what they wanted and got several handrail options back; an April 2025 reviewer had a new railing matched to the ones on another set of stairs, with Vinny offering to repaint the old ones. A January 2026 reviewer had cable railing installed inside a New Hampshire home, and a September 2024 project combined a railing and a gate. Price comes up as fair rather than cheap — a June 2024 reviewer compared a few quotes before choosing them, and the crew took the old rusted railing away when they left. Their Better Business Bureau page is an A+, and they are accredited there. If you need a rail — for safety, for code, or because the old one rusted through — this is a shop that measures quickly and finishes clean. Bring a photo or a sketch of what you want, and settle the lead time for a custom piece before you sign.
