“The Falcon's Iron Design team did a great job replacing our wobbly wood stair railing with a new, super strong cable-rail system. They were punctual and did exactly the job we requested. I would highly recommend Falcon's Iron Design for this kind of work. I went looking for someone who just wasn't going to send over an unknown sub-contractor, and I was rewarded with a great job.”
Our story
A trade learned at the welding table.
Falcons Iron Design was founded by Filipe Oliveira, who grew up around his father's welding work. What started as local residential metalwork became a shop building architectural ironwork for homes, builders and commercial properties across Florida.

Our story
Built with experience. Made to last.
The story of Falcon's Iron Design started with Filipe Oliveira and a passion for metalwork handed down from father to son. That's where he learned that good work isn't only welds and steel — it's precision, accountability and pride in every detail.
What began as small projects grew through referrals, trust and results. Today, with more than 15 years of experience, Falcon's Iron Design designs and fabricates handrails, gates, fences, staircases, structural steel and custom projects for homes and businesses.
Every project is treated as its own. Our team combines hands-on craftsmanship, modern fabrication technique and attention to detail to deliver structures that are safe, strong and finished to a high standard.
From the first cut to the final installation we follow the same principle we started with: build it right, take no shortcuts, and make it to last.
“When someone trusts what we build, every detail matters.”

How we work
The people who measure it are the people who weld it.
There is no handoff between a salesperson, a shop and a third install crew. One team sees the project from the first measurement to the last weld — which is why the railing that shows up fits the stairs it was built for.
- Design that answers the house
Profile, spacing and finish are chosen against your architecture, not pulled off a catalog page.
- Material chosen for the exposure
Steel, stainless or aluminum — specified for where the piece actually lives, from a canal-front deck to an interior stair.
- Finished, not just installed
Welds ground, hardware set, site cleaned, and a walkthrough with you before we leave.
