The Iron Shop Featured on Home & Garden Television’s Renovations

BROOMALL, Pa., September 23, 2003— The Iron Shop, the leading manufacturer of spiral stair kits, was recently featured on an episode of the popular Home and Garden Television (HGTV) program Renovations. The show, which airs weekly for one-half-hour, is geared toward the intermediate to advanced home renovator and remodeler who understands the language of construction and is not afraid to tackle almost any project.

The Iron Shop was featured in the second part of a two-part episode in which a beach house was being renovated. During the first episode 25-foot wooden pilings were driven into the ground to support a new second story addition. The addition, including a roof deck, was framed and an existing second floor deck was extended. A new roof was completed and new cedar siding and textured cement board was put up on the exterior of the house.

The second episode, in which The Iron Shop was highlighted, showed work at the beach house coming to a close, with drywall and trim being installed in the master bedroom, while cement board and glass block went up in the mater bath. The railing for the second floor deck was completed and the exterior metal spiral stair kit from The Iron Shop was installed to provide access to all three floors.

Renovations host Barte Shadlow and Ron Cohen, one of The Iron Shop’s owners, took viewers on a tour through The Iron Shop during the program to show them how a spiral stair kit is created from start-to-finish – beginning with the production process and ending in the company’s shipping department. Later in the program Shadlow showed viewers the spiral stair being installed at the beach house.
