Our Story
Built on Craft. Driven by Possibility.
Ross Metal Works is a family-owned custom metal fabrication and design company based in Houston. The family's metalworking heritage reaches back to 1910, and that trade knowledge still shapes how every piece leaves the shop today.
We combine generations of metalworking experience with custom design and problem-solving — quality craftsmanship, innovation and sincere customer service on every project, large or small.
Barry Ross — President and Owner
Innovation
When the piece doesn't exist yet, we design it.
A large part of our work starts as a problem no catalog solves — an unusual opening, a difficult site, a piece of hardware that has to be made.
Custom-designed hardware
Pulls, hinges and latches made when nothing off the shelf fits.
Innovative gate systems
Gates engineered around the driveway, slope and site.
Trackless gates
Clean operation without a track cut into the drive.
Bi-fold doors
Wide openings that fold and clear the space.
Unique architectural solutions
Details worked out with your architect or builder.
One-of-a-kind pieces
Built around the exact dimensions of your space.
