About us

A Vermont Craftsman Dedicated to Quality Work

Vermont Custom Handrails & Metalwork was established in 2021 by James Lambert, a master fabricator with over two decades of dedicated expertise. We specialize in the synthesis of structural integrity and aesthetic elegance, collaborating intimately with homeowners and architects to elevate functional requirements into sculptural centerpieces.

Hand-forged and precision-engineered in our Hyde Park studio, each system is a testament to the artisan’s touch. By merging heavy-duty metallurgy with minimalist, contemporary lines, we ensure a rock-solid, silent ascent that complements the grandest lakefront retreats and mountain estates. This is more than metalwork; it is a permanent contribution to the character of your home.

How Our Stair Railing Installation Process Works

In-Home Consultation and Measurements

We visit your home to take accurate measurements, look at your staircase layout, and talk through the styles you like. This is where we help you choose the right materials, rail shape, and overall look that will fit your home. You will get clear guidance, simple explanations, and a friendly walk through of your options.

Custom Fabrication in Our Vermont Shop

Once the design is confirmed, your stair railing is handcrafted in our Morrisville workshop. James uses more than fifteen years of welding and fabrication experience to shape, weld, and finish your stair rail with precision. Every piece is made to fit your home perfectly, using strong, long lasting materials chosen for daily use in Vermont homes.

Clean, Careful Installation

When it is time for installation, we work neatly and respectfully in your home. We protect surrounding surfaces, maintain a clean workspace, and install your new stair rail with careful attention to detail. Our goal is simple: a strong, secure, beautiful result with as little disruption to your day as possible.

Final Check & Ongoing Support

After installation, we do a full safety check to make sure everything is secure and aligned correctly. We walk you through the finished project, answer any questions, and confirm that everything feels right in your space. We also offer long term support for our fabrication work, so if you ever need adjustments or help, we are here for you.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Our reputation is built on high-quality craftsmanship and professional, reliable installation.

 We love the result which is a stainless steel multi section arched/ curved railing at our property. I absolutely recommend these guys and can’t wait to do another project with them.
