About V&M Ornamental Iron Works

We are a small business with only four years offering iron work in the Bay Area. However the owner and manager Mario Gomez has more than half his lifetime of experience in iron works.   V&M offers free estimates on-site, and e-mail estimates when the residence is more than 25 miles away from our location […]

Doors

  Every door we make is unique & one of a kind. V&M has done a variety of iron doors, screen doors, glass iron doors, and wooden iron doors. I have done forged doors, custom made for residential and commercial properties. The most popular design are usually scrolls,  some modern iron doors usually contain floral designs.  […]

Interior Ornamental Iron Work

This was work I did for a family in my area. My focus was on doing something a little more ornate and making the design bolder. Bolder means more iron, more time, and a lot more work, but it was worth it. You can see how the vines wrap around the frames organically, which is […]

Flames near Santana Row

I was excited to do this bit of iron work in San Jose, on Winchester and Olin. Flames needed a professional, sturdy barrier for their exterior tables, and I was only too happy to oblige. I wish I would have gotten pictures of how it looked before, to demonstrate the subtle differences that really improve […]

Balcony

Balcony railings add a lot to the feel of one’s home. They can give the impression of a more open space, as they do in the curved railing above; or they can make an open space feel enclosed.  The most inviting part of any balcony is the view, however, and our goal is always to […]

Stairs

V&M has done many decorative stair railings , we can do full iron stairs because it’s welded together, the one piece staircase adds a lot in terms of durability. We can make staircase railings, however, with a greater consideration of the rest of the house aesthetic. Outdoor iron works are particularly interesting because they need to be open […]

Railings

          These are the stair railings V&M  has done in San Jose, Palo Alto, Morgan Hill and other cities in the South Bay and Santa Clara County. The thumbnails don’t do the iron work justice, in the full size image you can see the railing has a pleasant woven aesthetic, with descending ornaments. We […]

Gates

  Gates are an especially large portion of the projects V&M does. We pay strict attention to the details, and V&M has been in this line of work long enough to make sure these otherwise distinct pieces of iron flow together. We have made sliding gates, motor gates, automatic gates, pedestrian gates, wooden iron gates, wrought […]

Tables

Custom tables make for a more finely tuned interior experience. V&M can make them to suit almost any need or decorative taste, and because they are more carefully built than mass produced tables, the quality will be superior, durable, and absolutely unique.  The pictures above demonstrate two separate tables I made for a larger iron works […]
