About
Custom Ornamental Railings in Cle Elum
Mountain homes here are built from timber and stone, and forged ornamental metal belongs in that company in a way that machined parts never quite manage. A railing built from forged components reads as another natural, worked material in a lodge interior.
We source the forged components, then weld, assemble, and finish every piece in our Kent shop before bringing it over the Pass to install. That means the design can lean rustic, with hammered texture and blackened finishes, or go fully ornate for a grand lodge stair.
The range covers simple ornamental, a clean railing with a few forged details, through to luxury commissions with hand painted and leafed work that make the staircase the centerpiece of the great room.
Two Levels of Ornamental
Simple Ornamental or Luxury Ornamental
Two levels of ornamental work, both suited to a mountain interior in different ways.
Simple Ornamental Railings
Simple ornamental works beautifully in a cabin: a clean forged railing with hammered texture, forged collars, or a few shaped elements, blackened to sit naturally against timber and stone.
Luxury Ornamental Railings
Luxury ornamental is a full commission for a lodge stair or a Suncadia great room, with sculpted forged scrollwork, botanical or mountain motifs, and hand painted or gilded detail that makes the piece unrepeatable.
Where They Go
Ornamental Railings in a Mountain Home
Two settings account for the ornamental metal in a Cle Elum or Suncadia property.
Interior Railings
The main stair in a lodge style great room is the natural commission, forged work reading against exposed timber and a stone chimney, and the design carries along loft edges and gallery landings seen from below across a double height room.
Exterior Railings
Deck and porch railings take forged detail outdoors, built and finished for deep frost, snow load, and freeze thaw cycles on a property that may well sit empty through the season. Posts are set to handle frost depth so the run stays true season after season.

Materials
Steel and Aluminum, or Brass and Bronze
Two material routes, and mountain conditions bear on the choice as much as mountain aesthetics do.
Steel and Aluminum Railings
Forged steel is the natural material for a mountain home, with hammered texture and sculpted detail, and blackened finishes that suit timber and stone interiors perfectly. Ornamental aluminum resists the wet spring melt without corroding, a practical choice for exterior deck railings that weather unattended.
Brass and Bronze Accents Railings
Brass and bronze accents warm a blackened steel railing, catching firelight in a great room and adding richness on collars, florals, and cap rails. Against timber and stone the warm metal reads naturally, which is why it suits a mountain interior far better than a bright polished finish would.
Finishes
Powder Coating or Hand Painted Finishes
Finishing is a choice, and for a mountain property it can go durable and understated or rustic and hand worked.
Powder Coat Finishes
Powder coating gives a hard wearing, even finish that suits a mountain home, and blackened tones sit naturally against timber and stone. For exterior deck and porch railings facing snow and freeze thaw it is the practical specification.
Hand Painted, Leaf, and Patina
Hand applied finishing is the commissioned route. Individual forged elements are picked out in color by hand, often botanical motifs, pinecones, or mountain forms, and against dark timber a gilded or patinated highlight carries remarkably well in low mountain light.
Architects and New Builds
Working With Cle Elum Architects, Designers, and New Construction
Mountain commissions frequently come through an architect or a lodge designer, and we work from their drawings, issue shop drawings for approval, and coordinate finishes with the timber and stone package.
On new mountain construction we plan around the stair build and the season, coordinating delivery over the Pass with your builder so installation lands when access and schedule allow.

Customer Reviews for Custom Railings WA
See What Our Customers Are Saying
Posted on Google Kristina G.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We're so thrilled with our new stair railings! Custom Railings WA and Mike's team did a high quality job from start to finish. We got the black powder coat finish with hemlock handrail in natural stain, which looks so elegant (see attached photos). The powder coat finish is really attractive, and we like that it's durable and not easily scratched. We were a little nervous that the wood color/characteristics on the top rail might turn out to be inconsistent across such a long run of railing, but the hand rails on all of the railings match beautifully. Thank you, Mike and team for taking such great care of us! Our new stairs are the perfect touch for our new farmhouse.Posted on Google Adele FesanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used this company for the second time, and this was our first time ordering railing for an outdoor deck. The service was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Communication was excellent, the team was easy to work with, and everything was completed exactly on schedule. The installation crew was highly professional, respectful, and left the area clean after completing the job. It was truly a pleasure working with a company that operates with such care and professionalism. The quality of the railing is top-notch — a very high-end product that exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again in the future.Posted on Google Leyla HasanovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We ordered glass railings for our parents’ home in Seattle. We were choosing between two options, glass or modern metal railings, and in the end we decided to go with glass. We’re extremely happy with that choice. The team helped us understand the differences, guided us through the design, and completed the installation on time. The railings look amazing. Great experience overall!Posted on Google Zamina BabayevaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the first day, they were professional and easy to work with. Mike always replied quickly, and the team made sure every detail was just how I wanted. In the end, we got beautiful glass railings that fit perfectly with our modern home in Bellevue. Thank you, Custom Railings WA, for making the whole process smooth and enjoyable!Posted on Google J BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a good experience getting outdoor railings for my front concrete steps and for my stone steps in the back garden. I had put off doing this for so long and thought that railings might detract from the aesthetic look of my yard, but I was so wrong. I absolutely love my new railings, and loved working with all the guys who came out - to measure, to bend the metal and dig post holes, and finally to install the finished railings. Thank you!Posted on Google Jill SprattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful experience with Mike and his crew at Custom Railings WA. From design planning to installation they were knowledgeable, patient, helpful and professional.Posted on Google K CarrollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience. Could not be more thrilled with the work Custom Railings did. Start to finish top notch work, excellent communication, very professional crew, wish all companies operated with such integrity, truly a pleasure to work with!Posted on Google Hanaa Abou OufTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have beautiful new railings thanks to Custom Railings. Good communication, beautiful product, and they made sure everything was clean before they left. I will definitely use them again in the future!Posted on Google Cathy MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Custom Railings WA. They replaced our outdated railing with a new custom designed railing that fit our dreams and our budget. Communication was always clear and timely. They even worked around the chaotic schedule of other contractors working on our bigger remodeling project that impacted when the railing could be installed. Very Happy with our railing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel over the Pass for ornamental work?
CustomRailingsWA2026-09-09T11:14:52-07:00Yes. We serve Cle Elum, Roslyn, South Cle Elum, Suncadia, and the wider Kittitas County area from our shop in Kent. We come out to measure, build and finish the piece on the west side, then bring it over the Pass to install.
How do forged railings hold up to Cle Elum winters?
CustomRailingsWA2026-09-09T11:14:26-07:00Interior work is unaffected. For exterior deck and porch railings we build and finish for deep frost, snow load, and freeze thaw, using ornamental aluminum where its rust free advantage helps or steel finished through a multi-step process, so a railing on a home that sits empty through winter stays sound.
Can you incorporate mountain or botanical motifs?
CustomRailingsWA2026-09-09T11:13:59-07:00Yes, and it is some of our favorite work. Forged pinecones, leaves, branches, and mountain forms can all be worked into scrollwork and picked out with hand painting or leaf. Because assembly and finishing are both done in our own shop, the design can be developed specifically around your property and its setting.
Do ornamental railings suit a mountain or lodge interior?
CustomRailingsWA2026-09-09T11:13:23-07:00Very much so. Forged metal sits naturally alongside timber and stone because it is another worked, textured material rather than a machined one. For a mountain home we often use hammered texture and blackened finishes, and motifs drawn from the setting, so the railing feels native to the building rather than imported from a city house.
