Owners Story
At Metalcad Iron Works, we're more than just a metal and iron works company—we're a family. Our journey began with the creative spark of Edson Almeida, a self-taught craftsman who discovered his love for handcrafted products at the young age of 14. Starting with a small reupholstery business in Brazil, Edson’s path led him to Greater Boston's bustling iron works scene.
Within a year, his knack for the craft saw him managing projects at a local iron works company, handling everything from ornamental gates to elaborate metal stairs. But Edson's dream didn’t stop there; driven by a vision to create a family-owned business, Metalcad Iron Works was born.
Our humble beginnings blossomed into a well-respected name in the Eastern Massachusetts region, known for our meticulous attention to detail and a heart that beats for turning design dreams into steel and iron realities.
