    Fence gate designed and installed by Distinctive Steel

    I am so happy with the fence and gate Distinctive Steel fabricated and installed for me. When I bought my house there was a brick wall around the property that was only about 3 feet high, and I needed something higher to keep my dogs safe. Rene was very quick to respond and give me a quote which was thousands less than the other two quotes I got. The installers finished the whole project - just under 200 linear feet - in one day. The fence looks great and I LOVE the gate they designed for me. I highly recommend Rene and Distinctive Steel.

    These guys are awesome! I needed a kind of special item : a wrought iron utility cover for the power meter in front of our house. I emailed them and Rene got back to me the next day and was able to come by that same week! We brainstormed how we wanted it to look and he drew out the idea. It only took a month to get done ( he had estimated 2 months) and the price was very reasonable. It turned out awesome! 10/10 would recommend!

    Finished!  Love everything about it.

    Rene was awesome to work with! I wanted to add a security door to a rental property and contacted him for info. He was very responsive to my contact and worked with me completely over the phone and through text. This was a huge deal for me as my time is so limited and I needed flexibility. I left a lot of design choices up to him, but made the final decision based on those recommendations. It turned out perfectly. Very happy with the completed job! Will definitely be using them for other work.

    The awesome wavy design gate to match the door.

    First off let me start by saying that rot iron fences and gates are very expensive nowadays. Are used to be that I could find a nice iron door for about $400. Nowadays you won't find one less than $700-$900. And even those are not that great. With all of that out of the way. Let me just say that I did do some shopping around and distinctive Steel was right under the competition. There steel work and coloring is second to none. I would highly recommend this place to anybody that wants a rot iron door and gate fence. I got both and would recommend them to any of my family or friends. Most places would charge for the screen upgrade or coloring upgrade. Distinctive steel does a little bit not even close to what those other places charge. Some places were also not from Tucson and we're subcontracted from Phoenix. I prefer local and give you my business to local. This company is very easy to work with and we're willing to do would it took to earn my business especially as a military member who was heading out on deployment. They really took care of me and my family! Trust them to do a great job! Because they will.

    Rene is a stand up guy with an amazing talent. I live in the Dove Mountain area and have a courtyard I wanted to enclose with a metal door. We drew up the plans together and negotiated price. He gave me a timeline and... voila!!! Rene... Thank You so much for the amazing work! The clear coat finish giving it the industrial look is exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely be calling you for a couple more jobs.

    Highly recommend this company!! From the beginning, the owner was amazing to deal with...we had planned to get several quotes for a front entry door, a double door for the patio, and a window covering. However, after meeting with the owner, getting his very reasonable quote and time frame, we felt so comfortable that we canceled our other visits for estimates from other companies. He is extremely professional, timely in his communication, reasonable in his prices, and genuinely cares that you get the product you expect! We cannot say enough about how much we love our doors and window covering!!! They are such heavy, quality doors, very well constructed, and beautifully artistic at the same time! Thank you, Distinctive Steel!! We are thrilled!!!

    Rene is amazing, and so are all of his workers and subcontractors. My family and I own two houses, side by side, with one entry driveway. After we used Rene and Distinctive Steel to put on new security doors and side gates at our homes, we hired Rene to do our front entry security gate - a beast of a project. But Rene made it look beautiful! He was thorough, honest, and came in ahead of schedule, knowing how excited we were to have this added security to our properties. He sends texts with photo updates throughout the process, so we are kept up to date. And he is always quick to respond with any questions, with great patience and professionalism. I can't thank him and his team enough for enhancing our properties, and more importantly securing the safety of our homes. Please support local Tucson business like Rene's!!

    They did a gorgeous job on a gate for our backyard. They were easy to work with, always showed up when they said they would, and did exactly what we wanted with no issues. Rene is a great communicator and they are fairly priced. I cannot wait to use them again!

    What an awesome company. As a business owner I'm keen on customer service and communication- that's what makes or breaks businesses and their reputation. Rene and his company has communication and customer service down to an art. His team was so kind, and professional- just good hearted people. We had 350 feet of steel fencing installed. It's absolutely beautiful. We are so pleased with our project. Thank you Rene, and Alberto and all your staff. You guys rock and we so grateful! This company is world class...

    Very pleased with the entire gate/design.

    Absolutely fantastic! Rene and his crew created the perfect gate for our backyard. From the moment he came by for a free quote to the time of installation, it was VERY quick. Very affordable. Highly recommend and would definitely use again.

    Wow! Amazing customer service! As a person who has relocated here, (thank you YELP) was not sure where to find what I was wanting... I called and spoke with Rene (the owner). He came to my home in a very timely manner- and gave me some ideas for exactly what I was wanting! I now have my new security screen doors installed and they are BEAUTIFUL!!! A huge thank you to Rene and his team! I LOVE them. (I also love supporting small business owners) wishing them great success

    We needed to replace our security bars, because they were rusted and lacked a safety release. Rene came out and gave us an estimate and worked with us on a design. I didn't want something generic and he showed us The Man in the Maze design. I really liked it and I think it turned out well. Rene and his staff are really friendly and professional. I definitely recommend him.

    Beautiful gate just installed today...love it!!

    Very professional and reasonably priced. The address in Yelp is wrong. 5656 S Joseph is the correct address.

    I am pretty particular about my experiences with contractors and I will state unequivocally that if…read moreI could give 6 stars if I would! First off, the service was excellent! Kase and his crew are polite, professional, timely and very customer-oriented. Kase initially helped us design the fence and then we thoroughly enjoyed having his crew at our house for the installation. Family affair with great people and easy to have around. Ashleigh in the office kept us appraised of progress and was very accomodating when we had delays on our end due to other contractors. They just rolled with it. Secondly, the finished product is absolutely stunning, with obvious pride of workmanship! It's kind of hard to get excited about a pool fence, but let me say that rather than an "industrial" looking standard type of black and straight fence, they custom made a rusted, architecturally sensitive fence that blends in with the elements of the yard beautifully. It looks like art in my backyard! Lastly, pricing was very reasonable, and more than competetive with other bids I received. Retrospectively, I think this was money very well spent and was so much more than even anticipated. I highly recommend this fabricator and would consider using them again. Can't go wrong with this company!

    I just love the wrought iron security screen door and 2 wrought iron backyard gates that Iron Wolf…read moremade for me! Kace came out to give me an estimate and he listened to what I wanted and what my needs were. He took measurements. The estimate was very reasonable and I paid a deposit. A few weeks later he was able to come a day ahead of schedule (I was thrilled!) to install. The workmanship on the door and gates is beautiful!!! I just love the craftsmanship. They were very careful with the installation--treating my house and property with respect and cleaning up before they left. I am thrilled with the door and gates! They look great and function perfectly. I'm so glad I used Iron Wolf Innovations. They're a top-notch company.
