SCL Metal Works
Custom iron doors and windows, drawn and forged in our Houston workshop. Designed, built, and installed by the same team.
Every iron door company has a catalog. Most don't have a welder. We're a Houston workshop — the same hands that draw your door forge it, finish it, and install it. No resellers. No subcontractors. One team, start to finish.
No middlemen. No surprise upcharges. The person you talk to is the person building it.
Showroom visits by appointment. Come see raw iron become a door.
Traditional wrought iron, single or double, any size.
Modern, geometric, minimal iron. Our contemporary line.
Oversized doors on a central pivot. Statement entries.
Full-width iron and glass for indoor-outdoor living.
Matching iron windows and door-window sets.
Climate-controlled enclosures with decorative ironwork.
Three phases. One team. No handoffs.
We start with a conversation — your home, your style, your measurements. Our designers draw it by hand before anything gets cut. You approve every detail.
Week 1–2Your door takes shape in our Houston shop. Heavy-gauge steel, hand-bent scrollwork, welded joints, powder-coated finish. We send you progress photos.
Week 3–8Our own crew delivers and installs. Same people who built it. We don't leave until the door is plumb, sealed, and you're satisfied.
Week 8–10Custom doors and windows, designed and installed by our team across the greater Houston area.

Iron WindowWood swells. Fiberglass fades. Iron does neither. A properly built iron door outlasts the roof above it.
Heavy-gauge frames and embedded multi-point locks hold against Gulf Coast wind and debris.
No summer swell. No winter shrink. The seal you get on day one is the seal you keep.
Backed by our written lifetime warranty on structural integrity. If something's wrong, we come back and fix it. Period.
Double-paned tempered glass, thermal breaks, and weather stripping. Lower your energy bill while upgrading your entry.
SCL Metal Works started in a rented bay on the northwest side of Houston. Ten years later, the shop is bigger, but the approach hasn't changed: every door is drawn by hand, forged in-house, and installed by the same crew that built it.
We're not a showroom selling someone else's doors. We're fabricators. The smell of hot iron and the sound of hammers — that's our day. If you visit, you'll see your door being made.

They drew it, forged it, and installed it themselves. No middlemen, no surprises. The door is the best detail on the house.— Houston Homeowner
We went through three quotes before finding SCL. They were the only ones who actually make the doors. The quality difference is obvious — our neighbors keep asking who did it.— Katy, TX Homeowner
From the first sketch to the final install, same team the whole way. They sent progress photos from the shop. The door survived its first hurricane season without a scratch.— Cypress, TX Homeowner
Most custom doors are designed, forged, and installed within 8–10 weeks. Complex designs or multi-unit orders may take 10–12 weeks. We'll give you a firm timeline after your consultation.
Pricing depends on size, design complexity, glass type, and installation requirements. We provide free, detailed estimates with no obligation. Call us or fill out the form below for a quote specific to your project.
Yes. Our installation crew works out of the same shop where your door is forged. The people who built it are the people who hang it. We don't subcontract installation.
Every door we make is custom. You choose the style, dimensions, glass, handle, and finish. We can modify any design in our catalog or work from your own sketches and references.
Our doors are built with heavy-gauge steel and multi-point locking systems. They're designed for Gulf Coast conditions. Iron doesn't warp, crack, or blow in.
Yes. Every door comes with a written lifetime warranty on structural integrity. If something's wrong with the build, we come back and fix it — no questions asked.
