You’ve worked hard to design and beautify the outdoor living area of your home, be it a garden area in your backyard, inviting patio or deck, and you want to enjoy it – rain or shine, inside or outside.
Many of our patio design clients here at Big Easy Iron Works want patio doors for their New Orleans home that will give them the ability to enjoy the outdoors whether or not they’re actually outside, opening up their home to the fresh New Orleans air.

Some of our clients prefer double French doors to their patio: with a traditional look and a strong statement, these doors provide a focal point for a room as well as a beautiful view of your backyard.
Others choose sliding doors. A sliding door can open up your view to your backyard whether you’re on your way outside or relaxing with friends on the couch, allowing you to appreciate your beautiful yard (and watch any kids or pets playing outside) rain or shine.
We’re the team you need to get it done right, on time and on budget. With over 30 years’ service in the NOLA area, we’ve earned a top-rated reputation for our services, and we take pride in providing affordable, high-quality patio doors for the community.

“Great job on the iron gates! I can’t believe they finished installing the iron gate and repairing our fence. A lot of my neighbors recommended Big Easy Iron Works and I can see why they trust them so much. Very professional workers came and the owner checked up from time to time. Great experience.”
– Vanessa Johnson“You have my respect for Big Easy Iron Works! Thank you for staying true to your word about quality service. They helped install our new iron fence and it exceeded my expectations to be honest. They explained everything they would be doing every day of the job. I really recommend them for those living in New Orleans. Hire them for your fencing needs.”
– Billy Anderson“I contacted Big Easy Iron Works because most of my neighbors recommended them to me. I am satisfied with the time that they took to finish the work repairs with my wood fence. The fences they placed turned out nice and they looked like they would last longer. I would also recommend them to my friends in New Orleans.”
