Grates with a view! 👀
@FieldOperations chose our Regular Joe trench grates as part of their transformational design for Brooklyn’s @DominoPark. Regular Joe combines the clean, simple lines of a traditional slotted grate with the surface interest and architectural refinement inherent in all our cast metal designs.

🌟 #HelloGorgeous 🌟 Our nickel bronze #MoonFace grate shown here is a stunning “white gold” color when raw, before oxidization. The naturally protective patina that forms over time, ranging from a rich brown to a lovely verdigris depending on the conditions the metal is placed in, gives added depth and character.

Here’s one of the most unique examples of using decorative drainage as a design element we’ve seen yet!
Our Interlaken trench grates, cast in marine-grade aluminum, circle the midsummer pole, arc across the plaza, then continue their journey down the stairway in this visually compelling design by @The_West_Studio for Astoria Nordic Heritage Park in the coastal town of #AstoriaOregon.

We worked on a series of custom stormwater covers for #OldTownNorth, Alexandria, VA. Two of the six designs were from @ArtistMattLong, who graciously gave us permission to repost his photos and commentary from the installation celebration that took place over the weekend. We so appreciate working with such talented artists (which include @yoshikoratliff_art and @danascheurer) to turn something functional into beautiful public art.
Check it out!

It was a great little Saturday down on the waterfront celebrating the installation and unveiling of the Old Town North Alexandria, VA Stormwater Covers project. Big thank you to the @alexandriaartscommission, @otnalliance, @ironagegrates and @alexandriavagov. Great teams to work with on a pretty cool permanent public art installation!
🎨
These turned out awesome! It’s really neat to see how my design translated to cast iron along with their oxidation/patina process that has already begun (notice the varying bright rusty orange and copper colors). Each one is just a hair different given the variables of the molten metal and sand mold they use for casting. They will continue to age and brown.
🎨
This project was both a public art project and a city branding initiative whose aim was to highlight some of the history, economy, and spirit of the city. I did a good bit of research, planning, and development in tandem with the team’s input to get the designs just right. Really enjoyed working on this one and adding some character to the area! #art #publicart #stormdrain #stormdraincovers #manhole #manholecovers #manholecoversoftheworld #illustration #artist #graphicdesign #branding #city #virginia

#CleanLines. If that phrase speaks to you, check out our Rain 💧 pattern! We love how perfectly these Rain tree and trench grates complement the contemporary design aesthetic @StarrWhitehouse created for Sven Park in #Queens, NY.

This custom fence surrounding a children’s play area adds the perfect touch of whimsy and color. Made in collaboration with @VerdeDesignInc, each piece was individually laser cut and powder coated, then mechanically fastened together.
Bring us your ideas! Iron Age has the expertise, creativity, and design know-how to help create one-of-a-kind solutions.

The ability to add extra panels to many of our tree grate patterns makes a wide range of sizes and layouts possible. This flexibility allows designers to place and protect more trees while creating beautiful spaces for people and
nature to safely co-exist. Case in point, this lovely #patio with a shade tree (!) at @BobbiesAirwayGrill in #Dallas.

Bringing Iron Age’s sales team together is always a good time. Mostly it’s just connecting with and learning from each other via computer screen at our monthly Zoom meetings, but something magical happens when we can gather #IRL. This past weekend, we did just that in one of our favorite cities, #NewOrleans! ⚜️💜⚜️💛⚜️💚 We can’t thank our amazing sales representatives enough for bringing such valuable ideas, insights, and strategies to share and to the iconic @ThePontchartrain for hosting us all with such hospitality and charm. Throw in the incredible food, music, architecture, and history of #NOLA, and it couldn’t have been a better experience!

Incorporating a complimentary mix of materials, colors, and textures, this entryway is a stunner! We’re biased, but we especially like the addition of our #castiron 24” x 48” Regular Joe grate as a #walkoffmat.

Mixing materials and textures makes for more interesting and inviting landscaping, such as the repurposing of our #castiron Oblio drain grates into this beautiful transitional walkway between patio and garden.
