A visit to Mid-South Welding Ornamental Fabricators, Inc. (MSW) at their Memphis, TN location gives customers a unique view of a family owned and operated ornamental metal fabrication shop. On one side of the building you find a showroom that welcomes customers to visit, view, and select elements related to their individual projects. On the other side is a working fabrication and blacksmith shop where customers can view their work-in-progress as talented employees form and weld metal into various architectural elements.
From simply creating a security barrier for an entry to grandiose entrance gates, MSW has designed and fabricated a countless number of the Mid-South's iron gates over the past thirty years. Customers have the option of choosing from our economically priced traditional styles or custom designing a one-of-a kind gate to meet their own particular taste and needs. MSW can assist in the building of your complete fence and gate package, including masonry service or gate automation. The process begins with the customer outlining their desires and expectations for an iron gate to secure their residence or business.
For the past thirty years MSW has worked with contractors, architects, and individuals assisting in the design and fabrication of architectural elements for businesses and residences throughout the Mid-South. Spiral stairs, balconies, curved stairs, custom made pergolas, and ornate bracket supports are some of the items we fabricate for both commercial and residential application. All of these architectural elements are fabricated in our shop of steel construction with all welded connections. Our Design Service and fabrication team will work with you to ensure a product that will meet your needs and offer complete customer satisfaction.
From working drawings through fabrication and installation, our team of craftsmen will work together to create an iron railing that will perfectly accessorize your home. We custom fabricate iron railings of all sizes, shapes, and forms in our shop using both standard stock pieces and hot-forged scrollwork. Whether you are trying to make a design statement by replicating a period in history or need a simple handrail for security, MSW has over thirty years of experience in fabricating and installing iron railings in the Mid-South.
Offering Design Service is one element that distinguishes MSW from local competition. While the forge is heating up and the metal is being bent in our adjoining shop, you will often find Roberta Pledge sitting in the front showroom working with a client in designing an upcoming project. With a background in interior design and twenty-five years of experience in designing custom gates, interior and exterior staircase railings, furniture, and accessories, Roberta will assist you with any design needs you may have.
For security, beauty, and endurance, iron fencing cannot be surpassed. As you look around the Mid-South, you will definitely notice that there are many degrees of quality in the iron fencing you see surrounding local businesses and residences. What makes some fences look durable and strong, while others look inferior in craftsmanship? Is there really a difference in the endurance and stability of some fencing over others? We take pride in and stand behind our fences as being some of the most durable and beautiful in the Mid-South.
I love the historic richness of our trade. While it is challenging to find talented blacksmiths or even trained fabricators, the beauty they create is priceless and, I’m afraid, a dying art. We will continue trying to replicate the past, as well as add new, enduring products for security and design...
The “in production” furniture from two weeks ago is now in the client’s outdoor living area and “Thanksgiving Ready”! Happy Thanksgiving to all as we count our many blessings!
A month ago we posted a “work in progress” that is finally complete! Months of working drawings, the challenge of keeping the architect’s design correct and the building codes adhered to were all very real on this job, but the finished product is definitely worth all the effort! #landscapedesign #...
Love spying our metal shelving units for @cityhilldesign at @vestahomeshow
Just hung this garden gate that is a perfect blend of privacy and security. #landscapedesign #landscapearchit ecture #irongate #irongates
