Ornamental Wrought Iron Room Divider in Des Plaines

A room divider does the job of a wall without closing a room off. This one, for a Des Plaines home, is an ornamental wrought iron screen in round bar finished in gold, meant to separate two spaces while letting light and sightlines carry straight through.

An open floor plan is great until you want a little definition between, say, an entry and a living room, or a dining area and a stair. A metal divider draws that line without the weight of drywall: you still see through it, light still moves, and the spaces read as separate. Ornamental detailing turns it from a partition into a feature.

The gold finish is a deliberate warm note, and indoors it is painted rather than powder coated. Because a divider is a one-off by definition, it is drawn to your opening and ceiling height and built to fit that exact spot, the same way we approach a piece of custom metalwork for a home.

If you want to break up an open space without building a wall, a metal screen is a great option. Stop by the Signature Metal Works shop with your dimensions.
