Where do you find wrought iron door toppers?

15 years ago

Can anyone tell me where I can purchase a wrought iron door topper, wall grille or whatever it is called? I really would love to be able to purchase it on line, as I don't have access to any great stores. Thanks!

Ours are Durango doors and we love them. Not sure the gauge, but they are heavy and require a firm closing to be really closed. No problems with seasonal changes, but we're in Texas and I think the coldest it got this year was 29. Maintenance is cleaning the dog snot off the inside and the red clay off the outside. As for getting roasting hot in the summer, I don't recall it getting that hot last year, but we have a covered entry so that makes a difference. It faces the east so every morning the sun shines through brightly and where the dog takes up occupancy, hence the dog snot. Ours are scrolled iron with glass that opens in for cleaning. We paid $6495 without hardware for them and honestly I don't know how difficult they were to install because we built from 1300 miles away and weren't here. The builder didn't mention them being a problem. One thing I do know about them is that when we first moved it they didn't close perfectly and Durango sent a rep out the very next day to adjust the door and the weatherstripping. We are very pleased. I'll try to post a picture tomorrow if you'd like, or you could go to the durango door website. The model we ordered is called shoals.

Do you like wrought iron doors?
Q

So when you say design and style, what exactly are you picturing? Honestly,I am not sure that I like all the swirls and the metal might be a little heavy looking. I think this kind of door probably fits a really big house, bigger than mine. My builder said for me to look at ThermaTru doors. Anyone used those? I found one that I like 81981p, I will have double 3x8, stained in a dark brown. Anyone have this door :) When I say I found one that I like, that means the one I like today and tomorrow I will be here asking everyone for advice on several other doors. Thank you as always.

Need new lamps to go with my new iron topper
Q
Comments (12)
When I first bought those lamps I thought it would look good to follow the shape of the posts and didnt look too bad without anything above the bed, but now with the iron topper, I agree they need to be a different shape and more weighty. lovesummer, sorry I missed your question about where I got the topper. I found it at HomeSense. Oopsie. I like your first lamp you posted, the idea of the black base never occurred to me, and yes the shade needs to be more of a creamy or gold color. Thanks for the idea. You need to join a photo site like photobucket, download your pictures there and then copy the HTML code into your message area not into the links portion. Would love to see some photos of your house.

Wrought-iron candelabra. Love it!

Savannah, Georgia, where I also work as a tour guide in the Historic District. Good thing my nightlife/partying days are behind me because now I spend my money in the antiques malls/consignment shops looking for treasures like this. Thing is, I need to find an appropriate place to display it. I also practice Feng Shui, (or as I call it "Interior Decorating for the Interior Decorating Challenged") so I usually put some thought into arrangements before I purchase something: Metal décor here, wood décor there, etc. This, on the other hand, was in impulse buy. But can you blame me? And for only $20?!?

Tues. Morning, HomeGoods & Pier1 often have metal wall decor.

Keep an eye on Iron Accents clearance. It's how I found a cast iron piece I'd been searching for. I ended up buying the last one they had and they haven't carried them since!

This is a fabulous resource for wrought iron antique pieces. Not sure what your budget is, but they also do reproduction pieces as well. The store itself is located in NJ, but most of their business is online. Great stuff!

betteratthelake, if you're near a Hobby Lobby,they have great pieces. I've got one I'm trying to decide where to hang - it was only $24.95, but is heavy, fairly wide, and would be perfect over a doorway.....
