Custom Ironwork for Commercial & Multi-Family Properties

Delta Fire Equipment's iron works division delivers custom ornamental and structural ironwork for commercial, industrial, and multi-family properties across California. From code-compliant stairway railings to decorative security gates, we combine aesthetic design with structural integrity. Our team works with architects, general contractors, and property managers to fabricate and install ironwork that meets both building codes and design specifications.

As a licensed C-23 (Ornamental Metal) contractor with in-house welding capabilities, Delta eliminates the subcontractor markup and coordination delays that come with hiring separate ironwork and fire protection contractors.

Design, Fabricate, Install — One Team

Most ironwork contractors fabricate off-site and hand off to an installer. Delta's team handles the complete scope — design consultation, shop fabrication, field installation, and code compliance documentation — under one contract.

Ironwork That Integrates with Your Fire & Safety Systems

Iron works and fire protection are more connected than most property owners realize. Delta handles both — which means your fire escape stairs, security gates, and access barriers are built to fire code from the start.

C-23

Licensed Ornamental Metal Contractor

California C-23 license covers fabrication and installation of ornamental metal products — railings, gates, fences, stairs, and decorative metalwork for commercial properties.

IBC / CBC

International and California Building Code

All ironwork is designed and installed to IBC and CBC requirements for structural loads, guardrail heights, stair geometry, and ADA accessibility standards.

NFPA 101

Life Safety Code — Fire Escapes

Fire escape stairs and landings are governed by NFPA 101 Life Safety Code. Delta's fire protection background means these are built right — not just close enough.

ADA

Americans with Disabilities Act

Commercial handrails and guardrails must meet ADA grip-ability, height, and extension requirements. Delta's expertise prevents the costly corrections that come from non-compliant installs.

Why Property Managers Choose Delta for Iron Works

Iron works and fire protection intersect more than you'd expect. Delta's combined expertise means fewer contractors, fewer coordination problems, and projects built to code the first time:

  • Fire escape compliance handled by the same team that manages your fire suppression
  • Security gate fabrication coordinated with access control installation
  • In-house welding eliminates subcontractor markups on ironwork projects
  • ADA handrail compliance reduces liability on commercial properties
  • Single-point accountability from design through final inspection

Custom Design-to-Installation Workflow

We work from your architect's drawings or develop the design ourselves. Shop drawings submitted for approval. Fabrication in our facility. Installation by our team. No handoffs, no miscommunications.
