Marmion Engineering fabricates steel for new homes, extensions, renovations and finished residential properties from our Greenore workshop near Dundalk. That includes structural beams and support steel made to your engineer’s specification, bespoke stairs and access steelwork, railings, driveway gates, side gates and automated entrances.
One local fabrication team serving homeowners, builders, architects and engineers across Louth, Dundalk, Drogheda, Newry, Monaghan, Cavan, Dublin and the North East.

Some steel disappears into the house — supporting an opening, carrying a floor or forming part of an extension. Other steel becomes part of the finished home — the gate, railing, stair or handrail you use every day.
Marmion does both. We can fabricate structural steel to the drawings and specification provided by your structural engineer, then apply the same workshop capability to the visible residential metalwork around the property.
Support steel for house construction, renovations and larger structural openings.
Steelwork fabricated to the dimensions and details supplied by your engineer, architect or builder.
Gates, railings, stairs, handrails and one-off steelwork made around the actual property.
Opening up a kitchen, building an extension, removing a load-bearing wall or constructing a new home often means structural steel has to become part of the building. Marmion can fabricate RSJs / universal beams, columns, goalpost-style frames, support steel and connecting plates to the structural engineer’s design.
Because the work is fabricated locally in Greenore, builders and engineers have a nearby team to deal with when dimensions, plates, holes, connections or site conditions need clarified before manufacture.
Typical residential requirements:
• Steel beams over enlarged openings and open-plan renovations
• Support beams and columns for extensions
• Goalpost frames and structural support assemblies
• Steelwork for new-build houses
• Plates, brackets and connection steel detailed to project drawings
If you already have structural drawings, send the beam schedule, connection details or fabrication package directly to Marmion. We can review the fabrication requirement, clarify practical details and manufacture the steelwork from our Greenore workshop.
This page is aimed at residential work, but it is backed by the same EN1090 EX2 fabrication capability Marmion uses for larger structural and industrial projects.
Engineer, architect or builder drawings can form the basis of the fabrication package.
Cut, formed and welded in Greenore rather than passed through a chain of resellers.
Fabricated steel prepared for delivery and installation sequencing with the building programme.
The front gate gets the attention, but the side entrance often does more work. Marmion can fabricate driveway gates, side gates, pedestrian gates and matching railings around the exact opening and the style of the property.
Choose traditional open steelwork, modern slatted designs, more private solid panels or steel frames combined with timber. For vehicle entrances, see our dedicated Gates & Entrances, Electric Gates and Sliding Gates pages.
Side entrances rarely stay standard once walls, pillars, paving and extensions are finished. A made-to-measure steel side gate gives you a cleaner fit, better security and a design that can match the main entrance or railings.
Options can include open-bar steelwork, privacy-focused infill, steel-and-timber combinations, key-lockable pedestrian access and coordinated railings or boundary steelwork.
Steel is often the practical answer where a home needs durable external access, a new stair structure, a landing, steps or protective handrails. Marmion’s existing stair and platform fabrication capability can be applied to residential projects where the dimensions or site conditions call for something made to measure.
That can include external steel stairs, access steps, landings, handrails, guard railings and fabricated stair structures, produced around the property and the project drawings.
Useful for: raised entrances, garden level changes, side/rear access, extensions, secondary access routes, terraces and renovation projects where standard components do not fit.
Boundary railings, handrails and protective steelwork work best when they are designed as part of the property rather than added as an afterthought. Marmion can fabricate railings to follow walls, curves, entrance piers and changes in level, with finishes and detailing coordinated with the gate.
For renovation and new-build projects, the same approach can be used for practical handrails and guard railings around steps, landings and access areas.
Some residential entrances need more than a pair of manual swing gates. Marmion already has dedicated solutions for automation and difficult openings.
Swing and sliding automation engineered together with the gate, including safety devices, access control and manual release.
A strong option for short or sloping driveways where swing leaves would take up too much room.
Steel frames can be combined with timber, modern infill and custom laser-cut details for a gate specific to the property.
Residential fabrication often includes smaller jobs that do not justify their own product page. If it needs cut, folded, welded or made to fit around the house, send a photo or drawing and Marmion can advise whether it suits our workshop.
Secure access at the side or rear of the home, made to the actual opening.
Boundary railings, stair handrails and guard railings for changes in level.
Made-to-measure steel access where off-the-shelf stairs or steps will not work.
Fabricated structural or support components made to the project drawings.
Custom connection plates, supports and practical fabricated components for building work.
Steel fabricated from drawings for extensions, renovations and house-building projects.
Photos and dimensions for gates or railings; engineer’s drawings for structural house steel.
Where needed, site conditions, openings, interfaces and practical fabrication details are confirmed.
Steel is cut, formed, welded and finished by the Marmion team in Co. Louth.
The final route depends on the job — builder steel, fitted gates or installed access steelwork.
Marmion Engineering is based at Millgrange, Greenore, close to Dundalk. For residential projects that means homeowners and builders in Louth, Dundalk, Drogheda, Newry, Monaghan and Cavan have a fabrication workshop within practical reach, while suitable gate and specialist projects can extend into Dublin and wider Ireland.
Whether you are searching for steel beams for a house extension in Dundalk, residential structural steel in Louth, a side gate near Newry or bespoke railings for a new home, the enquiry can start with the drawing, photo or measurement you already have.
Residential fabrication base in Co. Louth.
Gates, access steelwork and made-to-measure residential fabrication.
Structural steel fabricated to supplied drawings and specifications.
For structural house steel, the best starting point is the engineer’s drawing. For gates, railings and access steelwork, photographs and approximate dimensions are enough to begin.
Yes. Marmion can fabricate RSJs, universal beams, columns, support frames, plates and related structural steel to the drawings and specification supplied by your structural engineer.
Structural design should be provided or approved by the project's qualified structural engineer. Marmion's role is to fabricate the steelwork accurately to the agreed structural drawings and details.
Yes. The same bespoke gate fabrication capability can be used for side entrances and pedestrian access, with the gate made to the actual opening and coordinated with railings or the main entrance where required.
Yes, where a residential project needs made-to-measure steel access, Marmion can fabricate stairs, steps, landings, handrails and related access steelwork around the site and project requirements.
Yes. Marmion fabricates residential railings, handrails and protective steelwork, including matching railings for gates and made-to-measure steelwork around steps, walls and changes in level.
Yes. Builders, architects and engineers can send structural drawings or fabrication details directly to Marmion for review and manufacture.
Marmion is based in Greenore near Dundalk and is well placed for residential work across Louth, the North East and the border region, with suitable projects also undertaken further afield.
Structural drawings for a build. A photograph of a side entrance. Measurements for railings. A gate idea you cannot buy off the shelf. Send what you have and we can work from there.
