“Neumann Custom Woodworking has done several projects with MIgala Metal. They are always a pleasure to work with. Pricing is great and timing is always as promised. Each project that we have done is a little unique. Michael, the owner, takes the time to completely think through each project including the installation. It is great to have a supplier that helps make your job easier. His attention to detail and great work really shows in his finished projects.”

Blacksmith or Wrought Iron Worker FAQs
To care for wrought iron gates, first, clean the gate with mild soap and warm water, then remove any rust using a wire brush or sandpaper, then apply a primer and repaint to protect the iron. Lubricate movable parts such as hinges using oil. Conduct periodic inspections of your iron gate to monitor any signs of wear and tear to prevent future rust buildups.
