Lake Shore's craftsmanship begins with our people: their talent, dedication and experience. We have learned to make the finest cabinet-maker quality pieces for the outdoors by utilizing classical woodworking and boat building techniques, and adapting them to the manufacture of our products. And Lake Shore craftsmen combine old world quality with the new, working with up to the minute CAD design tools and the most state-of-the-art epoxies, glues and finishes.

Our ornamental iron fences gates and accessories utilize high quality design, workmanship and materials. All iron is carefully prime painted and finish coated with powder coating, electrostatic painting or standard high quality metal paint. Using new or historical designs, Lake Shore supplies iron products that add a classy or classical look to any home or business with unmatched durability.

Woods utilized by Lake Shore are primarily cedar or special hardwoods such as Ipe. Ipe (pronounced “ee-pay”) is used extensively by us for decking and other products because of its beauty and durability. This richly colored Brazilian hardwood looks and weathers like teak, is so hard you can’t drive a nail into it, is Class A fire rated (the same fire rating as concrete and steel) and if you toss it into water, don’t expect a life preserver—it sinks! On most rooftops, Ipe panels fasten to our proprietary LeveLoc™ framing system to assure a level deck despite the ups and downs of a typical high rise roof
