While I understand this review is late, I hope it's still valuable and I wanted to give props to Andrey at Capitol Iron. I had my sliding gate motor installed a few years back, and Andrey was incredibly professional and attentive. He took the time to assess my property and recommend the best motor for my specific needs. The installation process was smooth and clean. Andrey arrived on time and worked hard to ensure everything was set up correctly. He even walked me through the features of the motor and how to operate it so that I felt confident about using it right from the start. What impressed me the most was his commitment to quality. In the next couple years a car broke the chain and another time a bag jammed up the gear mechanism and both times Andrey was quick to respond and repair the issue. And my motor is still running smoothly today. If you're considering a sliding gate install or repairs I highly recommend Andrey at Capitol Iron! read more

Andre delivers high quality, reliable service. He initially installed our system 6 years ago and it worked perfectly until the batteries finally gave out. He came out, isolated and confirmed the batteries needed replacing and was done within an hour, including servicing the gate hinges. He kept us fully informed as we had to coordinate schedules. We highly recommend him. read more

Andrey and his work is outstanding! Andrey and his crew are professional, courteous, on time and very reliable throughout the whole process. We had an old wood fence that was transformed into a beautiful metal RV gate and pedestrian gate with a coded handle. Andrey always returned our phone calls or texts. He worked with us and turned our vision into a gate beyond our expectations! pricing was fair for the value we received! Clean up was exceptional! if you need a metal gate Do not call anyone else...just call Andrey! read more

This is for after installation issues/ customer service. After about 3 years, our 2-door driveway gate started to misalign probably due to its large size and weight. Unfortunately, I tried contacting Andrey numerous times over months, patiently waiting for assistance in repairing the gate to no avail. Initially I was told they could fit me in after they were done with a job. I must have tried for nearly a year to get someone from Capitol Iron to assess the issue and see if we could try to fix the gate plus I wanted to install auto openers. My messages were never returned after the initial contact describing the issue and being told they would come out at a later time. The initial quality and service were really good. Wish I would have known more about the long-term customer service experience which would have changed my decision so I am sharing mine here. read more

Extremely professional. We called Capital Iron. They responded in a timely manner & provided a reasonable estimate which Andrey, the owner, put in extra time and kept to original estimate. Capital Iron poured cement , replaced wheels on gate with better quality wheels then installed an automatic gate opener. Andrey connected the hub to our wifi, synchronized it to my phone and garage. At all times masks were worn. It only took a few hours for completion of job. Great job. It looks nice and works well. Everything we wanted and more. read more

Andrey and his team of professionals were friendly and courteous. Not only was Andrey's quote competitive, he was the ONLY one out of the five companies I compared with that was knowledgeable enough to answered all of my questions in regards to the gate opener and make proper recommendations based on our needs. They fabricated a beautiful and secured gate for us, finished their installation in a timely manner, and took the time to help me with setting up my gate opener. Capitol Iron is truly a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them to fabricate your next project! read more

Andrey is the man. Fixed my driveway gate in record time. Fast & courteous service. worth the cost to fix in a hurry (value for dollar, but not "cheap"). After struggling to fix my glitchy gate, Andrey came out & fixed in two visits in less than 24 hours. Awesome! read more

Andrey at Capitol Iron is our choice for all iron work. We've used his services for 20 years. He installed a beautifully designed gate at our old property and now that we moved to another home Andrey did all of our railing for the new deck and most recent project- deck railing around our pool. Andrey knows his work, always professional and easy to work with. He does quality work, that is why we keep on coming back to Capitol Iron for all of our projects. We have two more projects coming up and we are happy to work with Andrey again! read more

Andrey and his crew did a fantastic job taking my backyard from an old run down wood picket fence, to a beautiful iron fence. They did it all in 1 day even with the weird slope i have and needing to slant some of the sections. Andrey kept me informed the whole time what was going on and why he was doing certain things. He even built a gate for me. The fence came out perfect! down to even the screws he made match the paint on the fence as to not stand out. The job they did is great. The price we paid for it, even better. He has the best work, with amazing prices. I will be using and recommending capital iron to anyone who needs any type of metal work down. read more

Andrey did a beautiful job on our gate!! It's gorgeous! On a side note, my daughter noticed a Killdeer had laid her eggs near the gate and Andrey had left water out there for he momma while she sat on her eggs! How sweet is that! Thank you Andrey for your great work and big heart! read more

To begin, I live on an acre and have a very large wooden swinging gate that leads to an RV pad and the backyard. As it was 15 years old, it had started to sag and was quite difficult to drag open and close.. I found Andrey and Capitol Iron on Yelp and liked the reviews and photos of his work. All I can say is that I'm ecstatic that I chose Capitol Iron!!! Andrey came up with a wonderful plan to replace the fence and gate and did fantastic work! Not only is it a beautiful gate- actually one small and one large swinging gate- but this thing will easily last the rest of my life- it's bombproof! Both gates have locks and they swing open so easily- I'm in heaven I'm sure my neighbors will be jealous and the only problem is that when driving past my house it makes the remaining fence on the other side of the house look so dingy!! Haha In addition, Andrey built it with the option of later adding an electric opener- pretty cool!! In conclusion, I think Andrey and Capitol Iron are fantastic and if you want a gorgeous fence or gate that will lastt a lifetime give him a call!! read more

Andrey and his team did a top notch job and made me a beautiful rock solid gate. Andrey is extremely available by cell phone and got the job done on time in the middle of the busy season. We are in the initial stages of a driveway and landscape remodel, so I'll update pics once the whole job is done and the house is painted. In the meantime attached is a pic of the gate. We absolutely love it. read more

Andrey does amazing work. He is one of the most skilled welders around and I highly recommend him for all work!!! read more

I'm late on this review, but last fall we had Capitol Iron build a custom iron gate for our front courtyard. Andrey was great to work with, even meeting me at Home Depot to pick out just the right lock. The gate is very attractive, solid and well constructed, and we've had many compliments. We highly recommend! read more

We researched and interviewed several companies before deciding to go with Capitol Iron. We could not be more pleased. We met with Andrey who was very easy to work with. He made great recommendations, was professional, timely, & respectful. The installation was smooth & the price was more than fair. Andrey even fixed a family heirloom for us that had been broken for over a decade! We didn't think it could be fixed but Andrey is truly a master of his craft. Don't hesitate to go with Capitol Iron! You won't be disappointed!!! Excellent people!!! read more

Tried to call these people multiple times. Left message, spoke with Andrey who said he would call me back in ten minutes but didn't. I get wary when people say they will do something and then don't follow through. Maybe they are so popular that they don't need new clients. Great reviews on yelp but too bad they won't be getting my business. read more

They created and installed a nice iron gate that opens electronically. The workmanship is amazing and the service was incredible. Andrey programmed my remote controls, my car, and installed software so I can open and close the gate from my smart phone. I know the latter sounds crazy, but you would be surprised how often I use it. I recently had a little "accident" with the gate and needed help to get it to work correctly. It had nothing to do with their work, it was just one of those dumb accidents, but Andrey came out the same day - a Friday - spent almost an hour fixing what was wrong, and then wouldn't let me pay him. Again, the repair was not at all his fault. Really amazing customer service. I don't write reviews on here much, but when you get this kind of craftsmanship and service, it is well deserved. read more

We have one of those homes with the garage in the back. We had a redwood fence on its last leg and knew we had to do something very soon. We wanted an iron gate that also offered privacy and opened automatically so we could park our car behind it. Our budget was slim, but we wanted our gate to last, so we did our research and called Capitol Iron. Andre showed up to help us out. He was so friendly, yet very professional and showed a lot of passion for his work...the true hallmarks of an artist/craftsman. He showed us photo examples of his work and gave us a detailed written quote later the same evening based on what we wanted. The quote was pricey, but it included all the bells and whistles down to electronic entry controls. We met again to finalize the details and he helped us to figure out how to work within our limited budget. We ended up with a manually operated, double door iron gate with redwood privacy slats that we could open and park our car behind. Andrey built it so we could add electronic openers to it at a later time if we want. The gate is beautiful and a definite upgrade that will likely outlast our house. It is that solid! We have received many compliments and noticed people slowing their cars as they drive by to take a look. I highly recommend Andre and Capitol Iron. I look forward to working on more projects with him as our budget allows. He does a lot of different decorative iron work to include hand rails, fences, security doors, post reinforcements, etc. just ask him! read more

We had Capitol Iron (found them on Yelp) install an electric gate opener on our older double wooden driveway gate in October. I am pleased to report that the experience and the work product rates 5-Stars! Andrey Zhdanov, the owner, was attentive and professional. He delivered at the quoted price which was reasonable, especially for the top quality of the product. They fit us in on our tight schedule and finished in less than a day. The products they chose for the opener, the ball-bearing hinges, and the automatic lock are top notch! I had an initial concern that the company had Iron in their name and we had wood gates, but they knew exactly want to do with our older wood gate. The gates are 7+ years old and were slightly sagging. Andrey and David came onsite and worked efficiently and with great quality. They consulted us if they had questions and implemented exactly what we expected. They used iron straps to brace-up the gates so they no longer sag. The openers and the gates are now almost silent (the manual gates probably woke the neighbors when they were opened or closed before the new openers!), and the lock is very secure. Opening and closing is all easy and user friendly. In summary we are very satisfied and highly recommend Capitol Iron. It is one of the very best experiences I have had with home improvement projects over 30 years. read more

My electric gate stopped functioning and I called Andrey because of his great Yelp reviews. He responded immediately and told me he would come by my house after he finished two jobs, and that he would text me when he was on his way so I could be home. I appreciated this because it saved me taking time off work and waiting a long time for him. He was extremely helpful, diagnosed and fixed the gate problem, and bent over backwards to help me understand how it operates and what to do to avoid future problems. I definitely recommend him! read more

Andre and Team made up steel gates for my side yards that are powder coated and built to last. Good quality steel and look great, adding curb appeal to the home. The Capital Iron team came out and took the measurements, along with a custom description on what I wanted, and fabricated the gates. After construction and powder coating, they came out and installed the gates for me, and ensured the clearances were good. These gates will last for years, providing great looks and additional security to my yard. read more

We had Capitol Iron replace our automatic gate opener and add a few accessories. I can't say enough about Andrey and his crew. The finished product was even better than I expected and the price was very reasonable. Andrey is truly skilled at his craft and provides the type of professionalism and good old fashioned customer service that is so very hard to find these days. I highly recommend Capitol Iron. read more

Professional service and work. Andrey and his team are the best source for custom iron gates, & openers, doors, fences, rails, etc. Andrey installed beautiful brown powder coated railing for our home's patio as well as our entire front yard fencing and back yard side gate. Several years later both the fence and railing still look great! I especially like the textured powder coated finish of the patio railing because it looks so vintage (much more character and appeal in my opinion than the traditional gloss finish..which most people like). Would definitely recommend them. read more

Thank you for the good recommendation. Vlade did a great job on our fence and he was able to start right away!

Awesome work! Andrey, the owner is easy to work with and delivers the product on time. very honest. We had a gate to build for our RV pad. The gate is rock solid. I will use Capitol Iron again!! You will not be disappointed. read more

The winter storms blew down our dual swing gates plus 40' of wood fence. I got bids from 3 companies. Andrey was the only one who not only explained in detail what products he uses, but why. He uses quality components because they will last and look the best. We got a motorized iron single arm swing gate, with wood panels. I custom ordered an arch top with leaves, and loved it. It was wonderful working with Capital Iron as Andrey is a timely and clear communicator. He came out twice just to make sure he understood the design I wanted. Their prices are slightly higher, but the iron was powdered instead of painted, and the wood was kiln dried and tongue and groove so there wouldn't be any gaps between the boards. I would definitely recommend Capital Iron when you want quality and great customer service. Great iron work and design Andrey, thank you! It feels like we are driving into a vineyard each time we come home! read more

Five years ago, I used Capitol Iron to turn my iron gate into a electric one, for ease of access down our drive way and security. I wasn't sure that a 90+ year old gate could be so easy to update to current times. We got a keep pad, and wireless system added to make the gates open by push of a button, or keying in a preprogrammed code. We have never had a problem, it works perfectly. Recently we bought a new car and tried to program the buttons in the car to open the gate, and in doing that I deprogrammed the codes in both cars, and the key pad. I tried everything, you tube, I read the paperwork that was left - and could've fix my mistake. Thankfully, I found Andrey' s business card and called him at 10:40 p.m. just to leave a message to see if he could help - he called me right back and the very next day came over to reset the car and program the new car! That is service, I was also able to buy two new remotes (which I had lost) I can't say enough about Capitol Iron = great product, great service, great pricing!!! read more

I had tried installing an opener I bought at Home Depot and it had all kinds of problems and let's face it, it wasn't installed professionally. I called a few different companies to come out and let me know what it would cost to fix it and after I had met some guys and saw what their estimates were, I trusted my instinct and decided to go with Andrey at Capitol Iron. I am SO glad that I did! They do amazing work and exceeded every expectation I had. Andrey and his 3 man crew installed a new opener and and fixed what I had made mistakes on and I don't feel like I paid more for them to fix what I messed up. I feel I got real value for the quality of work and speed at which they completed the job. If you are in need of any work related to a gate or fence, look no further. This is the company you want working on your project! Thanks Andrey and team! Hopefully others will read my review of your work and make the decision to call you. read more
