Our Formato seating brings a splash of personality and pop of color 🔵 to the 20,000 sq. ft. children’s play area designed by @KimleyHorn at this open-air shopping center in #TulsaOK. Crafted from durable steel with a playful blue #powdercoat finish, Formato is a perfect fit for the location’s contemporary, family-friendly vibe.
Formato seating is available in 2 sizes (17” and 19”), 3 designs (Lines (as shown here), Bubble, and Solid), and your choice of powder coat color(s), allowing you to mix and match and create wonderfully out-of-the-ordinary seating arrangements.

Our Interlaken Tree Grate, seen here in a striking 5’ x 10’ format, proves that classic design never goes out of style—especially when scaled for today’s streetscapes.
This grate’s larger footprint not only accommodates healthy tree growth but also makes a bold visual statement in plazas, promenades, and other pedestrian-priority spaces.

This 🌍 #EarthDay, we’re celebrating the small details that make a big difference—like durable cast metal grates made to last for generations, not seasons.
At Iron Age, sustainability isn’t a trend—it’s built into every product. From recycled/recyclable ♻️ materials to designs that support stormwater 💧 management and healthy tree 🌳 growth, we’re proud to create beautiful infrastructure that respects the planet.

The top photo shows our Oblio tree grate as it looked when first installed over 7 years ago. In the bottom photo, you’ll see what’s changed: the breakout rings have been removed to make room for the tree’s growth.
That’s the beauty of a well-designed tree grate—growth is built in. Our breakout rings are designed to be easy to cut on site when the time comes, helping maintain tree health without compromising the surrounding hardscape.

Here’s a reminder from Iron Age president Mark Armstrong to maintain your tree grates! 🌳
Keeping an eye on root flare and making timely breakout ring removals supports long-term tree vitality—and ensures your #streetscape matures as beautifully as the trees themselves.

@SFPublicWorks specified this #custom planter fence for the #UpperHaight district in #SanFrancisco—and we’re loving how it’s holding up two years after installation!
The intricate, historic design reflects the neighborhood’s unique blend of French and Victorian influences, all wrapped in its iconic #counterculture vibe. A timeless piece for a timeless part of the city.

We went back and revisited this project three years after installation, and it looked so good, we couldn’t wait to show it off again in honor of World Landscape Architecture Month! 🌿
We collaborated with @PWPLA to create a series of five 10’ x 100’ #custom grate arrays for the pedestrian plaza at @SalesforceTower. In-ground LED fixtures create columns of light, offering a unique nighttime experience for visitors. The grates were designed to weigh less than 70 lbs. each for ease of removal during maintenance.
A great example of how thoughtful design can elevate public space—day ☀️ and night 💡.

The generously spaced, angular lines of these stylish custom grates not only provide ample drainage but also facilitate a nightly light show, allowing colorful LEDs 🔵🟢🔴 to shine up through the grates and illuminate the water wall above.
Cast in silicon bronze, these grates will never rust, making them ideal for this recirculating water feature.

We love to re-visit project locations, documenting the aging of our castings over time. On our last trip to #SpokaneWA, we again found ourselves in The Nest plaza gathering space, designed by MT-LA for the @Kendall_Yards neighborhood, and featuring our #castiron Arizona tree grates. As you can see from these “before” and “after” images, our grates look even better now than when they were first installed 10 years ago!

🌳✨Tree guards just got a modern upgrade! ✨ 🌳
We love the bold, squared-off shape of these tree guards, designed by @KimleyHorn to pair perfectly with the clean, architectural lines of our Rain tree grates.
