Business Profile

Mueller Ornamental Iron Works has been designing and fabricating custom ornamental metals in Elk Grove Village since 1933. This third-generation family business, started by Paul Mueller, specializes in iron, aluminum, stainless steel, and bronze. They create interior and exterior railings, fencing, gates, balconies, tables, and fireplace equipment, and also repair existing exterior railings. For Elk Grove Village residents, common issues like sagging gates and fence post movement from frost heave are addressed with custom repairs that realign hardware and reinforce posts against freeze-thaw cycles. Mueller’s team assesses soil conditions and uses durable materials to prevent future shifting. Located near the intersection of Arlington Heights Road and Devon Avenue, just minutes from Busse Woods and the Elk Grove Village Metra station, the shop serves homeowners and businesses throughout the area. Their hands-on approach ensures each piece fits the property’s specific needs, whether restoring a historic railing or building a new aluminum gate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of metal do you use for fences and gates?

We work with iron, aluminum, stainless steel, and bronze. Iron offers classic strength, aluminum is lightweight and rust-resistant, stainless steel provides modern durability, and bronze adds a distinctive look. Each material is chosen based on the project’s style, location, and maintenance needs.

How do you fix sagging gates and frost-heave fence posts in Elk Grove Village?

Sagging gates often need hinge adjustment or reinforcement. For frost heave, we dig down to below the frost line (about 42 inches in our area), set posts in concrete with gravel drainage, and sometimes use metal brackets to prevent shifting. This keeps your fence stable through Illinois winters.

Can you repair an old iron railing or do I need a full replacement?

We can repair most existing exterior railings, including iron, aluminum, and steel. Common repairs include welding broken joints, replacing loose balusters, and applying weatherproofing. We assess the railing’s condition and only recommend full replacement if the damage is extensive or the metal is severely rusted.
