Appalachian Ironworks

Custom Ironwork Built to Last for Generations

Since 1995, Appalachian Iron Works has been creating handcrafted, fully custom ironwork for homes and businesses across the Tri-Cities and Appalachian region. Based in Kingsport, TN and serving surrounding communities, we’ve built our reputation on quality that endures and craftsmanship that speaks for itself. Every piece we create is functional art—designed with intention, built with care, and made to stand strong for decades with minimal maintenance. When you work with us you’re not just getting a product, you’re getting a team that genuinely cares about your project from start to finish.

Three Decades of Craftsmanship, Creativity, and Care

What began in 1995 as a small, local iron shop has grown into a trusted name throughout the region, but our approach has remained the same. For over 30 years, Appalachian Iron Works has been dedicated to custom, one-of-a-kind ironwork tailored to the needs and vision of each customer we meet.

We believe great metalwork is personal. It’s not something pulled off a shelf—it’s something designed specifically for you, your space, and your style. Our team blends traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques, delivering pieces that are as strong as they are beautiful. From classic iron detailing to unique features like our lifelike bark-textured finishes, we take pride in creating work you simply won’t find anywhere else. And as the region’s only provider of custom spiral staircases, we’re honored to bring truly distinctive designs to both residential and commercial spaces.

Custom Ironwork Designed With Purpose and Built to Endure

At Appalachian Iron Works, every project is fully custom—thoughtfully designed for your space, your goals, and your style. Whether you’re enhancing your home, upgrading your business property, or exploring a unique idea, we craft ironwork that blends strength, beauty, and longevity. Our services span a wide range of custom work, with a focus on the core areas below.

Fencing & Gating

Our custom fencing and gating solutions are built to bring security, character, and long-term value to any property. From elegant driveway gates to durable perimeter fencing, each design is created to complement the architecture and landscape it surrounds.

Railings

Whether for stairs, balconies, porches, or walkways, our railings are designed to be both safe and visually striking. We blend structural integrity with artistry, creating railings that elevate the look of your space while providing the stability you need.

Specialty Items

Some projects need something unique—and that’s where we excel. We create custom accents, outdoor features, and artistic pieces, including our exclusive spiral staircases. Built to last and made to impress, they make a bold statement.

For clients seeking an even more distinctive touch, we offer our signature bark-textured iron—a feature that mimics the look and feel of natural tree bark for a beautifully organic aesthetic.
