Custom railings, pergolas, sunshades, trellises, fences, and more.
Our Story
Built by Ralph.Made in New Jersey.
Ralph Macaro founded Macaro Iron Works independently nearly 20 years ago with a simple belief: if you are going to put your name on something, it has to be built right. That belief still drives every railing, gate, and pergola that leaves the factory today.
Ralph Macaro founded, owns, and leads Macaro Iron Works. His parents and brothers work in the business alongside him. The business is built around direct communication, practical coordination, and a local New Jersey operation, not a call center or franchise.
Everything we make is custom. We don't sell catalog railings or off-the-shelf kits. Every section is measured, designed, and fabricated specifically for your home at our New Jersey factory.
Qualified subcontractors may perform field installation when needed, with direct Macaro oversight and inspection. Your project is never simply handed off and forgotten — it carries the Macaro name, and the team takes that seriously.
Our Factory
Every railing is fabricated at our New Jersey factory. Direct control of manufacturing supports clear communication, careful quality control, and custom work made for each home.
