Interview Q&A
What is your primary product or service?
Ornamental iron products, custom made with real steel. Our specialty is driveway gates and handrails. We also make many styles of fence, fire escapes, burglar bars, gazebos, doors, furniture, and any other custom iron need.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Ornamental iron runs in my blood. My father has a ornamental iron business in Texas, where I was raised. I've been welding since the young age of eight. Fabricating steel is my passion!
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
I do not order anything pre-fabricated. All of my products are high quality and 100% made by hand.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Artistic Ornamental Iron is located in Elk River and family owned. I prefer to fabricate everything myself or directly watch any employee to be sure that the quality is top of the line. When our boys are old enough to weld we may expand and have several locations.
Which areas do you service?
We proudly serve any area in Minnesota. Real wrought iron is hard to find and we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to improve their property with the high end look of ornamental iron.
Who owns your company or runs daily operations?
Artistic Ornamental Iron is owned and operated by Keith and Chelsey Rains, a husband and wife team.
What are your hours of operation?
We are open to any hours. Your business may need some improvements that are only possible when you are closed. We understand that your hours of operation may require no disturbances, including wrought iron installation.
