Stair railings in Fort Greene, Brooklyn are careful, character-conscious work for Brooklyn Stair Railings, in a neighborhood of landmarked brownstones near Fort Greene Park. The stoops here carry classic wrought-iron railings that deserve restoration rather than replacement. We repair and replicate that ironwork, re-anchor loose posts, and fabricate graspable handrails for period stairs. Fort Greene homeowners trust us to keep their stoops true to the block.
Fort Greene is a historic neighborhood of brownstone and Victorian-era row houses on landmarked blocks near Fort Greene Park and the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The 19th-century stoops carry original wrought-iron railings and area-way fences that are part of the protected streetscape. Its intact, tightly built row-house blocks make historically correct ironwork the standard here.
The brownstone and Victorian stoops of Fort Greene carry original wrought iron that rusts and loses balusters over the decades. We splice in matching pickets, re-weld broken joints, and reset loose posts into sound anchors, holding the guard at the roughly 42-inch code height. Restoring the original profile keeps these landmarked blocks consistent.
The iron fences and gates below the stoops tie into the same period ironwork. We repair rusted rails, re-hang sagging gates, and fabricate matching sections where pieces are gone. Everything matches the picket spacing of the stoop above so the fence and rail read as one design.
The parlor stairs in these row houses need genuinely graspable handrails. We fabricate continuous steel or iron rails in the 34-to-38-inch range, return the ends into the wall, and weld the line from one clean piece. Each weld is sanded smooth so the rail suits a landmarked interior.
