Center Plates
Center plates are the structural and decorative iron plates that support angled struts and the King strut to a horizontal beam in the center of a truss. These iron brackets are available in all our hammered textures and all our finishes. Fasteners are sold seperately. For structural applications with heavy loads we recommend through bolting with 1/2" diameter or larger fasteners. We do not recommend any of our overhead metal plates be installed with clavos.
Our Center Plates are available in sizes from 14" x 8" to 34" x 18" and all of our signature textures and finishes. Please reach out to us via office@oldwestiron.com for a quote on custom sizes, styles, and finishes.

United StatesA perfect match for an antique iron cart
The “rusty metal” acorn nuts look great on this antique, iron, factory cart, that has a new life as a coffee table in a brewery. I’ll definitely be placing more orders from Old West Iron.

United StatesThese are gorgeous, client absolutely loved them on her custom window shutters. Quality was even more apparent, the threaded stock used for the bolt is not cheap all thread. Ended up building a jig to cut them with an abrasive wheel on a chop saw. If you have more than a couple you aren't going to want to use a hacksaw or multitool, that is a good thing.

United StatesRestoring 60 year old front porch and carport metal supports
Amazing that all of your items are hand made. Our country was formed on hand made products. Now it's a dying trade that no one cares about. Good to know that companies like Old West Iron still take pride in making there items from hand. My hats off to this company for making outstanding products for us to buy from. Oh, and my lag screws will look awesome when I finish. Thank You, Tim

United States1/2 hammered nails
I like your products because of the natural look of old iron. I use these nails on some of my projects for myself and other friends to enhance a old/ antique look on furniture...mirrors... beds. Etc it also gives my newer projects a rustic look. The quality...customer service has been very good and I will be calling again thanks.

I purchase your pyramid head #10 wood screws. They go well with our antique corbels on our island bar. Worth the search and price. Thanks.

United StatesHigh Quality Unique Finishing Products
As someone who likes to remodel and build without contractor help, these products set my projects above the rest. People come over to my house and ask who did the work. I tell them I did but with the help of real black smiths out west.

Hey there, I am so glad we spoke on the phone and had the chance to explain our process and how everything is hand made. As a small family owned business, we make everything to order vs big corporations that have warehouses ready to go. We appreciate you for understanding and thank you for supporting a small American Business

United StatesBeautiful straps
I built a hickory door for our new cabin in Lake Tahoe, the distressed straps were the key element to make it outstanding. Also the bolts were perfect. Now I want to order a speakeasy to complete the project. Thank you. Jerry
