Custom Metalworking In Meridianville For Railings, Fences, Gates, More
If you need custom metal fabrication in Meridianville, call TADS Metalworks. We design, fabricate, and mount railings, fences, gates, stair systems, and structural steel components for residential and commercial properties. We always start with accurate measurements, and we pay as much attention to installation as we do the fabrication and design phases. We don't use prefab kits, and we don't guess with dimensions. Call us for a consultation, quote, or to ask about project feasibility. We would be happy to speak with you.
Metal Fabrication Done Right the First Time
We visit the job site, take precise measurements, confirm layout and attachment points, and then fabricate each component in our shop. We provide a tighter fit, and more long-term stability, then pre-fab metal sections.
Then, in the shop, we cut, weld, grind, and finish each section according to its use and load requirements. Before installation, we prep and coat the surfaces based on whether the project will live indoors or outdoors. On installation day, we align and anchor everything in such a way that it will look beautiful for many years. That same process applies whether we're building a short porch rail or a full driveway gate.
Rail Systems That Fit Your Property
Stair Handrails for Interior and Exterior Access
Stair handrails need to follow the slope of the stairs and mount securely to framing or concrete. We fabricate rail systems for straight runs, landings, curved staircases, and spiral stairs. Each section is built to meet current height and spacing requirements.
Whether it's a front porch entry, a basement stair, a loft access point, or a commercial staircase, the end result should feel solid every time someone uses it.
Guardrails for Decks, Porches, and Elevated Spaces
Elevated surfaces require guardrails built to the correct height with proper infill spacing. We fabricate guardrail systems for decks, balconies, porches, and raised platforms. Posts are spaced and anchored based on span and load so the system stays stable over time.
We build rail systems that tie cleanly into wood framing, concrete pads, or steel structures.
Cable, Glass, Horizontal Bar, and Wrought Iron Options
Cable rail uses tensioned stainless steel strands between metal posts. Glass rail systems use tempered panels mounted inside custom frames. Horizontal bar railings use steel or aluminum rails spaced to meet code. Wrought iron railings can be straightforward or include ornamental detailing.
We'll explain how each option performs, what maintenance it requires, and which setup works best for your layout before we start fabrication.
Gates That Open Smoothly and Hold Their Alignment
Driveway Gate Fabrication
A driveway gate should feel solid and operate smoothly without sagging over time. We build single- and double-swing gate frames sized to your opening and mount them on posts that can handle the weight properly. Hinge placement and post strength matter, and we build accordingly.
If you plan to automate the gate later, we design the frame and hinge layout so the system is ready for motors and access control.
Access Gates for Yards and Courtyards
Smaller access gates are common between fence runs or at side yard entries. We build these to match surrounding fencing and install hardware that allows consistent operation. Latch systems are selected based on how the gate will be used and the level of security required.
Planning for Automation and Access Control
If controlled access is part of your plan, we account for that during fabrication. Building the frame correctly at the start prevents costly modifications later.
Fence Systems Built for Durability
Decorative Iron Perimeter Fencing
Iron fencing works well for front yard boundaries and pool enclosures. We fabricate panels that follow the grade of your property and maintain consistent spacing from section to section. Posts are anchored properly to prevent shifting.
Functional Steel Fence Runs
Longer fence runs require correct post spacing and reinforcement. For larger properties in Meridianville, we fabricate steel fence systems that stay aligned across distance and uneven terrain.
Fence Repairs and Reinforcement
If an existing fence has cracked welds, leaning posts, or alignment issues, we can repair and reinforce it. Mobile welding allows us to handle many of these fixes on site without removing entire sections.
Custom Staircases Fabricated In-House
Spiral Stairs for Tight Footprints
Spiral stairs work well when space is limited or when you need access to a second level. We fabricate the sections in our shop, then assemble and secure them on site. For outdoor installations, we apply coatings suited for moisture exposure.
Straight Stair Assemblies
Straight stair systems are common in both residential and light commercial settings. We fabricate the stringers, treads, and railing components to match structural requirements and intended use.
Floating Stair Builds
Floating stairs demand careful planning. We build the support structure to match your wall framing and expected load, then mount everything with alignment and stability in mind. When we install, we take the time to get the spacing and fit right so the system feels solid underfoot.
Structural Steel and Load-Bearing Components
In addition to decorative and access systems, we fabricate structural components such as steel porch columns, support posts, brackets, and reinforcements. These pieces carry real weight, so we build them to the correct dimensions and mount them securely.
If you're a builder working in Meridianville or elsewhere in Madison County, we can coordinate fabrication and installation around your schedule.
Mobile Welding Services in Meridianville
Some projects don't require full shop fabrication. Sometimes you just need a repair or modification handled on site.
We provide mobile welding for gate hinge replacement, broken weld repair, fence reinforcement, railing extensions, and steel frame modifications. Our trucks are equipped to cut, weld, grind, and finish on location, which often saves time and avoids unnecessary removal.
How We Price and Schedule Projects
We price projects based on material, dimensions, complexity, and finish. After we measure and confirm scope, you'll receive a clear estimate. Smaller rail projects typically move through fabrication within a few weeks. Larger stair systems or extended fence runs may take longer depending on material availability and shop schedule.
Once fabrication is complete, we coordinate installation at a time that works for you or your contractor.
Residential and Commercial Metalworking in Meridianville
We work with homeowners, builders, property managers, and business owners. Residential projects often include deck railings, driveway gates, stair systems, and fencing. Commercial projects typically involve guardrails, stair assemblies, and access gates for offices, churches, and small commercial properties.
If your project involves steel or iron fabrication, we'll review the details, confirm measurements, and explain how we would build it. From there, we move into fabrication and schedule installation.
