Metal Railings & Restoration in Plymouth
Plymouth Gates & Railings fabricates new metal railings and restores period railings across Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall.
Railings frame a property and keep boundaries safe. On Plymouth’s older streets they are also part of the character.
We make new front-garden, boundary and balcony railings to your survey. Where original period railings can be saved, we restore them rather than rip them out, which keeps the look of the street and usually costs less than a full replacement.
Every railing is fabricated and installed by our partner NS Metal Crafting Ltd, a Plymouth family business since 2017.

Restoring Period Character
Mannamead and Peverell’s Edwardian and Victorian terraces have original front-garden and balcony railings. These rust at the base, where they meet the wall or ground. Our restoration work is straightforward.
Cut out the failed sections
We cut out the failed sections rather than scrap the whole run.
Fabricate matching profiles
We fabricate matching profiles and blend them in so the run keeps its period look.
Finish so it lasts
We finish with a galvanised base and {POWDER_SYSTEM} powder-coat so it lasts.

Common Mistakes vs What We Do
Replacing whole period runs
Common mistake: replacing whole period railings when only the bases have gone, losing the character and spending more. What we do: we restore what can be saved and fabricate matching replacements for the rest.
Painting over rust
Common mistake: painting straight over rusted railings, so the corrosion comes back through within a year. What we do: we cut out the rust, treat the metal, and finish properly.
Non-matching modern bar
Common mistake: fitting non-matching modern bar to a period run, so the repair stands out. What we do: we fabricate to match the original profile.
