Old West Iron: Forging Tradition Into Every Project
In an era of shortcuts and mass production, Old West Iron stands apart by preserving the lost art of traditional blacksmithing. Nestled in the heart of Idaho’s Teton Valley, this American-made brand is dedicated to creating heirloom-quality iron hardware and architectural accents that combine strength, beauty, and craftsmanship.
From hand-forged hinges and clavos to oversized barn door hardware and custom wrought signage, Old West Iron’s rustic iron offerings are as bold and durable as the structures they support.
A Modern-Day Blacksmith Shop Rooted in Tradition
Old West Iron isn't just a storefront — it's a living, working blacksmith shop that carries forward the legacy of fire-forged craftsmanship. Every piece of hardware is made or finished by hand, reflecting the precision and pride of generations past. Unlike hardware stores or big-box brands, this team believes that functional pieces should be both durable and beautiful.
Whether you're building a timber-frame home, outfitting a Spanish Revival kitchen, or restoring a centuries-old barn, you’ll find hardware here that fits the project and the story behind it.
Explore True Rustic Iron Works
The company’s rustic iron works span every category of home and architectural detail, including:
Hinge straps and pintle hinges for historic or custom doors
Slide bolts, latches, and door knockers that add weight and function
Decorative clavos, corbels, and wrought iron accents
Pizza oven doors, signs, and personalized home features
Oversized gate hardware and industrial-style fasteners
Each product is crafted with character — hammered by hand, textured with purpose, and finished in patinas ranging from flat black to antique pewter or oil-rubbed bronze.
Built to Order: Custom Iron Works for One-of-a-Kind Projects
No two builds are exactly the same — and your hardware shouldn’t be either. Old West Iron specializes in custom iron works, offering tailored solutions for clients who want precision fit, unique finishes, or completely original designs.
Need a hinge strap 37 inches long? A vented pizza oven door with a scrollwork grille? A hand-lettered iron sign with your family name? The team works with homeowners, builders, and designers to bring forged ideas to life.
Whether you're trying to match century-old wrought detail or create a custom piece from scratch, Old West Iron will build it the right way — with hammer, fire, and grit.
Wrought Iron That Holds Its Weight
There’s something unmistakable about real wrought iron. You can feel it in the weight of a forged handle, see it in the texture of a hammered surface, and hear it in the solid swing of a hand-hung gate. It’s hardware with history — the kind that doesn’t just fill a function, but becomes part of the home itself.
Old West Iron creates pieces that aren’t just accessories — they’re investments. Built to withstand the elements, to age with beauty, and to last for generations.
