Morrison Construction





This interior guardrail was commissioned by Jim Morrison Construction for the Mitchell/Uphoff Residence in Martis Camp. The iron work in this home was provided by no less than 4 different blacksmith shops including lighting from one of our favorite's Steve Lopes, along with Hunter Metal and Mountain Forge. Here at Striker Forge we would like to thank Jim Morrison Construction for the opportunity to work on this project.
