Understanding Our Wrought Iron Range

Finding the Perfect Fit for Your Sign or Plaque

When choosing how to display your plaque or sign, it’s important to select the right support — one that complements the design, fits the location, and stands the test of time. That’s where our wrought iron range comes in.

Each piece in our collection is hand-crafted by our local blacksmith using traditional forging methods, combining skill, care, and years of experience. Once shaped, every item is hot-dip galvanised for long-lasting protection against the elements, before being painted in your chosen colour for a flawless finish.

Our wrought iron range includes a variety of styles and sizes to suit different needs — from simple spikes for wooden plaques to elegant lecterns for information displays. Below, we’ll help you understand what each option offers and which might be best for your project.

 Wrought Iron Spikes

 Our wrought iron spikes are ideal for wooden backing boards or plaques, and are particularly popular for memorial installations. The top of each stake has two screw holes to secure directly into the back of the wood, providing a simple, sturdy, and discreet mounting solution.

 Wrought Iron Spikes with Plates 

These spikes come with a flat mounting plate, perfect for plaques that need to be fixed using industrial double-sided tape or CT1 adhesive. Available in various sizes to suit your plaque, larger versions are made with two spikes for added stability and strength.

 Wrought Iron Plaque Holders

For a more substantial presence, our plaque holders feature four legs and stand taller than the spike options. These can hold Corian or wooden plaques, offering a graceful, durable, and long-lasting display that’s ideal for gardens, parks, and memorial areas.

 Wrought Iron Lecterns

 Standing at around 1.5 metres high with a two-legged design, our wrought iron lecterns are perfect for larger plaques or information boards. Often used in heritage sites or outdoor spaces, they combine robust construction with a timeless aesthetic.

 Wrought Iron Brackets

 Our wrought iron brackets come in an extensive range of styles and sizes, offering something to suit every setting. Choose from:

  • Ball end brackets – a traditional, timeless look.

     
  • Scroll end brackets – for a touch of decorative detail.

     
  • Double scroll brackets – intricate and eye-catching.

     
  • Sun ray or medieval brackets – bold and distinctive options for something unique.

     Each bracket can include wrought iron rings or hooks, available as open or closed, allowing your sign to hang beautifully and securely.

 Wrought Iron Post and Arm

For those who love the appearance of a hanging sign on a post but want a low-maintenance alternative to wood, our wrought iron post and arm is the perfect choice. Standing at 2.5 metres high, it can be finished with either a ball end or spear end arm — a sleek and elegant solution built to last.

 Built to Last, Designed to Impress

 Every piece in our wrought iron range is made with the same dedication to craftsmanship, durability, and style. Whether you’re displaying a memorial plaque, business sign, or heritage board, our handcrafted wrought iron supports ensure your sign is presented beautifully — and built to stand the test of time.

If you’re unsure which style best suits your plaque or location, our team is always happy to help you find the perfect fit.
