Frank Lloyd Wright Designed Boynton House!

Boynton House Fence and Gates Being Installed!

Stewart Iron Works has begun installing the fence and gates on the 1908 Edward E. Boynton House in Rochester, NY.  Stewart was proud to have been chosen to work with Mark H. Bayer, ASLA, Founder and Principal of Bayer Landscape Architecture, PLLC, Honeoye Falls, NY.

The Boynton House has the distinction as being the furthest East designed residence by the famed architect, Frank Lloyd Wright.

The two year restoration project has been taken on by Bayer Landscape and the owners with great care, adhering to the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship, and are staying true to Wright’s vision for the property.  The design team and contractors on the site have been meticulous in cataloging, identifying and photographing materials and components of the house as they are reviewed and reconstructed.

Stewart Iron Works is most proud to have been chosen to fabricate the fence and gates in true Frnk Lloyd Wright exacting design!

Drive Gates Bring Peace of Mind!

Drive Gates = Security!

There is an increasing demand for privacy and security among homeowners.  Today's customer has many options besides the design of the gate to insure peace of mind.  State of the art technology allows for the customer to incorporate facial recognition, internet-connected digital cameras, remote iPad controls and other security oriented features.

Grand and elaborate gates of yesteryear are often bypassed for less extravagant designs, so as not to draw attention to the residence.  Security technology is less expensive and less intrusive with each new generation, which allows gate design to be more modest in appearance, yet heavily fortified.  Security experts often recommend keeping the design simple and modest, so as to be overlooked.

Often times, visual security can play a role as well.  Besides the drive gate, landscape architects can design a plan with trees and landscaping, creating visual barriers, which provide the home owner with an added layer of security.  Visual barriers are limiting compared to the security a Stewart fence can provide.

Call us today if security and peace of mind is high on your priority list!
