DC Handrails & Ironwork Parts Ltd was founded in 1997 by current managing director Dave Collins and has grown to be recognised as the UK's leading supplier of wrought iron and handrail components. A family run business, our reputation for excellent service and extremely competitive price has earned us a unique respect within our industry.

Our customers know how hard we work to bring them the best range of products at the best price. They also know that we are there to support them in a demanding industry. This close association and unique understanding of our customers needs forges strong bonds and a great team work.

Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, yet supplying the whole of the UK, we hold massive stocks ready for next day delivery. This dedication to outstanding customer support led to a significant investment in a huge warehouse on Whickham Industrial Estate, close to the A1 and Gateshead MetroCentre.

We were the first company to make ordering wrought iron components really easy. We introduced a really easy to understand product coding system that is now copied by a few other smaller competitors. Also, we started with a simple catalogue that has expanded over the years still keeping with the easy to understand theme.
