Why Bespoke Metalwork?
Why would you choose bespoke metalwork? When considering metalwork for the home – be that for a set of gates, balcony balustrades, metal staircases, railings, columns, or anything else in metal – many presume that a bespoke metalwork design is both out of their budget and an unnecessary extravagance. In this blog, we will explain the four reasons why we think that bespoke metalwork could be the perfect choice for your project.
Adaptability
Bespoke metalwork is designed for your space, so awkward shapes and specific sizes are by nature taken into account from the get-go. When off-the-shelf alternatives need to be cut down to size, a compromise is being made – and the expense of the alterations you need will likely make this off-the-shelf tailored piece more expensive than a piece designed solely and exclusively for your project.
Design
Why compromise on the look you are searching for? Bespoke metalwork can deliver exactly the aesthetic you have in mind, rather than making you trawl through the internet for the nearest mass-made alternative you can find. It also makes fitting quite specific briefs (an Art Deco look, or Arts & Crafts feel, for example) much easier.
One of a Kind
As mentioned above, bespoke metalwork has been designed solely for your project and for your set brief. It is the perfect fit for your space and your requirements – it’s not something you’re going to see anywhere else!
Affordability
Surprisingly, bespoke metalwork pieces can actually come in cheaper than off-the-shelf alternatives. Add to this the fact that a bespoke creation like this is generally made to the highest standards, the piece is much more likely to last for a longer period – saving money in the long run.
Examples of bespoke metalwork projects for the home
The world is your oyster when bringing metalwork into your home’s design, but projects to consider include:
- Metal beams and columns
Metal beams and columns break up a space for both support and visual appeal.
- Metal gates to your property
Automated or manual, this is a great way to make a first impression.
- Metal spiral staircases
Imbuing your space with that New York loft chic, and maximising space where a traditional staircase run wouldn’t fit.
- Traditional (but metal) staircases
Giving a modern, utilitarian twist to domestic spaces.
- Metal garden railings
For adding a real sense of personality and style to your outdoor space.
- Indoor metal mezzanines
Amazing for maximising vertical space and radically redesigning your space’s aesthetic.
- Metal balconies
A balcony allows you to bring the outside into your space without compromising on aesthetics but using weather-hardy materials.
- Metal balustrades
Staircase balustrades can be personalised to really bring your aesthetic together.
- Custom metalwork designs
The list goes on – perhaps you need a stylish fireplace guard, a piece of functional garden furniture, or an awkward-sized garden gate?
