Wood and metal combinations are an elegant way to add both warmth and strength to your Thornhill property. From privacy fences and railings to gates, screens, and architectural accents, Art Metal Workshop designs and builds custom wood-and-metal features that complement your home’s style while improving everyday comfort and security. Each project is tailored to your property, your aesthetic, and your functional needs, resulting in a finished product that looks integrated rather than “added on.”
Thornhill homeowners appreciate the balance of natural wood textures with the clean, modern lines of metal. This combination pairs beautifully with the area’s mix of traditional and contemporary homes, offering excellent durability against Canadian weather while maintaining a refined appearance. At Art Metal, we manage the entire process—from on-site measurement and design to fabrication and installation—ensuring precise fit, smooth operation where applicable, and a long-lasting finish.
Every wood and metal solution we install in Thornhill is backed by our lifetime warranty on workmanship, giving you peace of mind that your investment is protected for years to come. With award-winning craftsmanship and a focus on structural integrity as well as design, we deliver pieces that look exceptional and perform reliably in all seasons.
Wood-and-metal features offer a powerful combination of performance and style for your home or business.
Enhanced security: Rigid steel or aluminum framing with properly anchored posts creates strong barriers for property lines, entrances, and outdoor living areas.
Long-term durability: Powder-coated metal components and properly treated wood are designed to withstand moisture, snow, and temperature changes common in Thornhill.
Improved curb appeal: The contrast of natural wood grain against sleek metal frames adds architectural interest and elevates the overall look of your façade.
Greater safety: Sturdy railings, guards, and partition systems provide reliable support and help reduce fall or access hazards on stairs, balconies, and decks.
Practical convenience: Custom dimensions, hardware, and layouts ensure doors, gates, and access points operate smoothly and fit your everyday use.

We typically recommend durable, exterior-grade woods such as cedar or pressure-treated lumber for most wood-and-metal projects. These species handle moisture and temperature changes well, and when properly finished, they offer excellent longevity in Thornhill’s climate.
Metal components with quality powder coating require minimal upkeep, usually just occasional cleaning. Wood surfaces should be inspected periodically and re-stained or sealed as needed to maintain their appearance and protect against moisture and UV exposure.
Yes. Our team will review your home’s architecture, existing materials, and colour palette to create a design that feels integrated. We can coordinate wood stains, metal finishes, and profiles so your new installation complements what you already have.
All railing and guard systems are designed and fabricated to meet or exceed local building codes for height, spacing, and load requirements. During the consultation, we confirm the applicable standards for your property to ensure full compliance and safety.
Timelines vary based on project size and complexity, but most residential installations in Thornhill are completed within a few weeks after final design approval. We provide a clear schedule during the quoting process so you know when to expect fabrication and installation.
