In high-profile venues such as stadiums, arenas and other athletic facilities, railings, staircases and miscellaneous metals must function flawlessly while contributing to the premium feel of the space.
Our work in sports venues often consists of decorative metal, decorative glass, and pipe and tube railing systems, as well as custom steel staircases. These are popular venues with heavy foot traffic, so superior quality is critical. A wobbly railing isn’t just a safety hazard; it’s a detriment to the visitor’s overall impression. From design through installation, we are committed to precision craftsmanship and attention to detail to ensure a final product that’s as exceptional as the experience within.
At one of racing’s most iconic venues, we installed a sleek custom glass railing system along staircases, across a mezzanine, and around museum exhibits to match the grandeur of the race cars on display. The curved features of this decorative glass made attention to detail a top priority. Working with radiused and raked glass is never simple, but our experts brought it together seamlessly with precision and real-time problem solving.
Working against a rigid schedule to accommodate an active college campus, we expertly navigated a tight construction site and other logistical challenges to deliver a series of custom railing systems for the University of Cincinnati’s new Sheakley Indoor Practice Facility and Athletics Performance Center. The decorative glass system, especially, required our team’s unmatched skill and attention to detail. We meticulously installed each panel to ensure a firm fit for a modern look that functions flawlessly.
In addition to installing a custom decorative glass railing system, Stewart Iron Works fabricated and installed custom cable railings and aluminum railings for Centre College’s new athletic facilities. Our work coincided with massive new construction of a football stadium, fieldhouse and natatorium, so we prioritized collaboration and coordination with stakeholders to ensure a safe, efficient job site.
