AGS Stainless Inc. was founded over two decades ago on a singular principle: that custom railing should be as precise as it is beautiful. Our company began by combining Gary’s expertise in custom fabrication and stainless steel finishing with Angelo’s deep experience in designing and fabricating railing systems and stairs. This synergy of craft and engineering moved the complexity of custom fabrication from the jobsite to our state-of-the-art facility on Bainbridge Island, Washington.

There are no shortcuts to quality. We believe if you’re going to build something, you have an obligation to build it the right way.

What began as a specialized partnership between two craftsmen has blossomed into an industry leader, rooted in the most meaningful kind of growth: the word-of-mouth referrals of our customers.

To us, a recommendation isn’t just a lead; it’s the highest compliment we can receive. It’s a sign that the structural integrity and aesthetic beauty Gary and Angelo obsessed over from day one are truly making a difference in the homes and lives of our clients. Two decades later, we still treat every new project with the same quiet care and personal attention that launched this company.

At the center of our process is an “all-under-one-roof” philosophy that we guard fiercely. We work exclusively with 316 marine-grade stainless steel because we believe a railing should be a permanent fixture of your home’s story, built for a lifetime of resilience rather than just a few seasons. On our shop floor, we’ve found the perfect synchronicity of human and machine— pairing the mathematical precision of CNC lasers with the steady, patient hands of master craftsmen.

Every post is custom-cut, hand-finished, and carefully numbered for its specific place in your home. When that system arrives at your door, you aren’t looking at a collection of parts; you’re looking at a structural match for your architectural vision, ready to stand the test of time.

The distance between a dream on paper and a finished installation can feel daunting. At AGS, we step into that space as your technical partner, bridging the gap with clear, honest communication.

Our estimators and designers don’t just “process orders”—they work alongside homeowners and builders to make the complex simple. We believe that true expertise is the ability to take the tangled requirements of building codes and site geometry and distill them into a seamless, elegant solution. By providing a full ecosystem of support⁠—from detailed AutoCAD drawings to intuitive, step-by-step guides⁠—we ensure your installer has the roadmap and the confidence to achieve an awesomely simple, world-class result.

The AGS shop floor is more than just a place where we manufacture metal; it’s a community where innovation meets tradition. Walk through our facility and you’ll see veteran fabricators mentoring the next generation, collaborating daily to refine the “AGS way.” It’s this collective pride and quiet dedication to the “little things” that keeps us the premier choice for homeowners, architects and builders who refuse to settle for anything less than excellence.
