Boston #1 – Iron Fence to Ornamental Custom Iron Work
About Us
Who We Are
A Family Legacy, Forged in Iron
Founded in 1976 and headquartered at 19 Bartlett Street in Everett, Massachusetts, Ramos Iron Work is one of Greater Boston’s largest and most respected custom wrought iron fabricators — a distinction earned not through advertising, but through nearly five decades of exceptional work installed across the region’s homes, brownstones, commercial buildings, and historic properties.
We are, at our core, a family business. That means every client relationship is personal. Every project carries our name — literally and figuratively — because the work we put into the world reflects the values we hold at home. When you hire Ramos Iron Work, you’re not engaging a faceless contractor; you’re working with a team that takes genuine pride in craftsmanship and in the communities we serve.
Our Core Values
Uncompromising Craftsmanship
Every weld, every finish, every curve is executed with precision and care. We hold ourselves to a standard that refuses shortcuts — because the ironwork on your home should be as strong and beautiful in 30 years as it is on the day it's installed.
Community Roots
We live and work in the same neighborhoods we serve. Our investment in Greater Boston is genuine — we care about the communities our ironwork adorns and strive to enhance them with work that is worthy of their character and history.
Honest Partnership
From the first estimate to the final walkthrough, we communicate clearly and treat every client with respect. There are no hidden fees, no vague timelines, and no unpleasant surprises — just honest professionals doing exceptional work.
Custom Design Expertise
Cookie-cutter ironwork doesn't interest us. We collaborate with each client to develop designs that reflect their personal taste and complement their property — whether that calls for a timeless classical style or a bold contemporary edge.
Local Manufacturing
Our fabrication facility is right here in Everett, MA. Everything we make is produced by local craftspeople using quality American steel — not shipped from overseas in containers. Local manufacturing means tighter quality control and faster turnaround for you.
Bilingual Service
We serve Boston's full, diverse community. Our team is fluent in both English and Spanish, ensuring every client can communicate their vision clearly and feel fully understood from the very first conversation through to project completion.
Our Story
Built on Craft. Sustained by Trust.
The Greater Boston area has always had a complex relationship with iron. From the historic row houses of Beacon Hill and the triple-deckers of East Boston to the contemporary developments reshaping neighborhoods like Assembly Row and South Boston, ironwork has long been the element that ties architecture together — providing both structural integrity and visual character.
Ramos Iron Work was founded to meet that need at the highest level of quality. When we established the company in 1976, the goal was straightforward: produce ironwork that would outlast trends, withstand New England weather, and genuinely enhance the properties it adorned. That philosophy has guided every decision we’ve made since.
Over the decades, we’ve contributed our craftsmanship to countless Boston-area properties — installing fire escapes on historic North End buildings, designing custom gates and fences for Brookline estates, crafting spiral staircases for Cambridge condos, and fabricating ornamental balconies across Somerville, Malden, and Medford. Our work is embedded in the fabric of Greater Boston’s built environment, quietly serving and protecting the people who live and work behind it.
According to the National Ornamental & Miscellaneous Metals Association (NOMMA), true ornamental ironwork demands a combination of technical skill, material knowledge, and aesthetic sensibility that takes years to develop. Our team embodies all three, bringing that rare combination to every project — whether it’s a single decorative railing or a complete iron enclosure for a commercial property.
