Diablo Iron is "top-notch" all the way around. They were pleasant to deal with, did up front visits to our site, and installed a great product in the form of two iron gates. They provide excellent value along with their customer Service. We would highly recommend them.

Critical: Professionalism
If you are a Privately owned HOA and looking for a reputable professional vendor to do iron work on your property DO NOT waste your time contacting Diablo Iron Inc. For some unexplainable rationale or short sighted logic they are simply not interested in engaging. Granted that is their business prerogative.

Without a doubt Diablo Iron, has a exquisite artistic and fabrication abilities. Their craftsmanship is second to no one. Their employees were very respectful to our property and as well as to my family. To say I highly recommend Diablo Iron, would be a understatement.
My wife and I confidently feel it was a good investment and added more than a touch of class and value to the exterior of our home. Diablo Iron, will not disappoint!

Diablo Iron just installed some elaborate outdoor railings for us, and they look great. Very easy dealing with their estimator Sam Hewett, followed by careful measurements and clean installation. They originally quoted painted, but I suggest powder coated for longer reliability. Not cheap but definitely first class.

The team at Diablo Iron is A-MAZING!

From the first call through the installation and afterwards. John specifically kept me in the loop on everything. The finished product has exceeded our expectations. A true class act. Such a pleasure to do business with.

Highly recommend.

I found Diablo Iron after calling around as I needed a courtyard gate. They were the most reactive to my calls which was a good start. I had requirements which Karen asked for and she came up with a perfect design to go with the rest of my door and windows. After some time, they were finally able to get to my project and it went like a breeze. The gate was gorgeous and I love it! Very professional company and I would recommend them to anyone.

We wanted to put a gate in at the end of our long driveway but we were having trouble finding a reliable gate manufacturer who was responsive. After noticing a neighbor having a gate installed in our Piedmont neighborhood, we asked about the source - it was Diablo Iron. With the help of John we designed a gate that is spectacularly beautiful. The service was dependable and outstanding. John and Karen were extremely pleasant to work with.

Diablo iron designed and installed a gate for my front patio. Karen came by first to show options and measure in order to design the gate and quote the estimate. Then they came out to get more detailed measurement. Installation followed without a hitch. Final invoice matched the estimate. Very pleased with my new gate.

After moving, we decided to add an automated security gate for driveway and pedestrian walkway gate. We were concerned that our new home not look like a fortress or a prison so must report how incredibly happy we are with the results. Karen in the office managed the schedule and communication really efficiently. John oversaw and helped with design and color. We used Gray from Benjamin Moore and got the softer look we were trying to achieve. They tied the gate into existing deer fencing and they were very careful w our plants and walkways. Perhaps the very best part was their gate electrical specialist

Diablo Iron did a quality job designing, building and installing hand-rails on our stairs. They were easy to contact, fast to respond and understanding with delays on our end. Throughout the process they were focused on delivering a quality job that met our needs. I recommend them for high-end, custom iron work.

Karen was extremely helpful. I found Diablo Iron through a Google search and sent an email regarding my request for a driveway gate. She wrote back asking where I was located to determine if my area was in their scope. When I called she let me know that my city is outside of their service area, but she allowed me to tell her about the job and get some advice over the phone. I told Karen which companies I had spoken with and she gave me a recommendation for which company she thought would be able to handle our job the best. Even though her company was not going to get my business she still took

These folks are not always easy to get on the phone -- It would be better if they were more readily available via a published cell phone number. However, if you are persistent, you'll get their full attention to your project.

With toddler grandkids moving to the Bay Area on short notice, we called Diablo Iron in desperate need of an attractive iron fence installed around our pool, and installed quickly. Karen and John are the owners, and Karen couldn't have been more understanding, accommodating, and helpful. She moved her schedule around for us and in less than 10 days, husband John and son Sam were at our house to install everything. But that was just the beginning of our great experience. They are a family business with family values. When John and Sam saw the drop off between our concrete patio and dirt

We hired Diablo Iron to put in our new automatic driveway gates and some matching iron fencing and pedestrian gates. The craftsmanship and service were excellent! The design of the gates turned out so nice. There are so many decisions to be made for automatic gates. It seemed overwhelming at first but with their help we got through the process and everything turned out great. John was able to coordinate his work with the other subs that were working on our new landscaping so everything went smoothly. We couldn't be happier and get many compliments from our neighbors!

I had a rocky time getting a quote from Diablo Iron for a handrail. I had a railing with some custom mounting needs they seemed a really good match for. In the end I finally got through, Karen & John visited, and I have a competitive bid in hand.

Karen and John do BEAUTIFUL work! They recently created a pool gate and new stair railing for our home and they look amazing. The pool gate is elegant and unobtrusive. They fit it with Magna-safe pool locks to keep the kiddos safe. The work on the new stair railing and balcony rail is intricate and gorgeous!

I really appreciated their willingness and ability to achieve the design I wanted while staying within my budget.

In addition, their installation team was professional, friendly, and highly skilled.
