When it comes to building something solid, the small things carry more weight than most folks realize. Handrail brackets may not steal the show, but they’re the reason your railing stays secure day in and day out. And at Old West Iron, we don’t believe in cutting corners—especially on hardware that keeps your family safe.

These brackets don’t just hold up your rail. They hold up tradition, craftsmanship, and the kind of integrity you can’t fake with stamped steel or big-box shortcuts.

Built for Grit and Grace

We forge each of our handrail brackets to deliver both form and function. Whether you're installing a sleek modern rail or restoring a century-old staircase, we’ve got the hardware to match your vision.

Our brackets are available in a variety of finishes—raw iron, black powder coat, oil-rubbed bronze—so you can blend them seamlessly into your design or make them a bold statement against timber, stone, or plaster walls.

Why Our Brackets Make the Difference

• Hand-Forged Options: These aren’t mass-produced castings. Our brackets show real hammer marks, real texture, and real human effort.

• Solid Strength: Designed for heavy-duty support—indoors or out. Whether it’s for a rustic ranch home or a mountain cabin, they’re built to last through generations of wear.

• Style with Substance: Choose from sleek curves, bold lines, or old-world flourishes that pair perfectly with wrought iron handrails or wood dowels.

• Made in America: Just like the homes they’re installed in, our products are made with pride, not shortcuts.

Where They Work Best

• Stair railings in homes, lodges, and log cabins

• Porch and deck rails exposed to the elements

• Barn loft ladders or bunkhouse stairs

• Interior accents for rustic or industrial design styles

Anywhere you’ve got a rail, we’ve got the bracket to back it up.

Easy to Install. Hard to Miss.

Each bracket comes with pre-drilled holes and mounting hardware, so even if you're not a master carpenter, you can get the job done right. And once it’s in place, it won’t just work—it’ll look like it belongs there, like it always has.

Because at Old West Iron, we don’t believe hardware should be hidden. It should be part of the story your home tells.
