Company Profile
DSantos IronWorks is a welder-owned and operated business serving New York, NY since 2017. With over 20 years of welding experience, the team specializes in metal fabrication, custom fences and gates, and deck construction and repair. They offer free estimates and pride themselves on being just a call or text away for their clients. As a family-run company built on generations of metalworking know-how, they bring a practical, hands-on approach to every project—from manual and automatic gate installation to fence weatherproofing and deck replacement. For New Yorkers, sagging gates and corroded hardware are common headaches thanks to the city's humidity, road salt, and age of existing structures. DSantos IronWorks addresses these issues by using marine-grade stainless steel hardware, rust-inhibiting primers, and adjusting gate tension to compensate for shifting soil common in older neighborhoods like the Upper East Side or Park Slope. They also offer preventative weatherproofing and corrosion-resistant coatings tailored to the local climate. Whether you need a sturdy fence for a townhouse near Central Park or a custom deck for a brownstone in Brooklyn Heights, the team provides practical, lasting solutions without unnecessary upselling.
Frequently Asked Questions
My gate in New York has started sagging and the hardware looks rusty. Can you fix that?
Yes, sagging gates and corroded hardware are very common in New York due to humidity, road salt, and freeze-thaw cycles. We address this by replacing old hinges with heavy-duty welded brackets, using stainless steel bolts, and installing rust-inhibiting primers on all new metal parts. We also adjust the gate's tension to account for any settling of your walkway or post—something we see a lot in older neighborhoods like Greenwich Village or the Upper West Side. If you want, we can also apply a full weatherproofing treatment to prevent future corrosion.
How long does a typical deck replacement take for a New York City home?
For most standard roofs, balconies, or backyard decks in NYC (like those found in brownstones or co-ops), a full replacement usually takes 3 to 5 days. This includes demo, new framing, decking boards, and railings. We work closely with your building's schedule and noise regulations. Because we handle both the deck structure and the metal railings in-house, we can coordinate the project more smoothly than hiring separate contractors.
Do you install automatic gates for residential driveways in New York?
Absolutely. We install automatic gate openers for residential properties, including those with limited space or unique configurations typical of New York rowhouses or private parking areas. We handle the entire installation—from the gate itself (wrought iron, aluminum, or steel) to the motor, sensors, and keypads. We also offer manual gate installation and repair if you prefer a simpler, lower-maintenance option. All work includes a warranty and a clear explanation of how to operate and maintain your system.
