History
Wright's Iron & Steel Works, Inc. became incorporated
in September 1985 with the state of Virginia. We are also
registered as a foreign corporation in Maryland and Washington
D.C.
As
a union employer Wright's is signatory with Ironworkers
Local #5 and Labors Union #40. Both unions represent the
Washington Metropolitan area.
Since 1985 we have worked at Ft. Meade, Petuxant Naval Base

at Ft. Myer, Ft. Belvoir, Quantico Marine Base and the Pentagon
in Virginia. Other Federal projects include Walter Reed Army
Hospital, Bethesda Naval Hospital, FBI Academy, Secret Service
Building, CIA Headquarter, and Goddard Space Flight Center.
Our largest recent projects include the renovation of the
AFL-CIO Headquarters in Washington D.C.. The work began in
1997 and was complete in the Summer of 2001. We fabricated
and installed all the structural, miscellaneous and ornamental
metals as well as all steel doors and windows.
At
renovation of the Redskins Stadium, Fed-Ex Field, we fabricated
and erected the structural steel supports and canopies for
the new escalators. This fast track project was completed
6 months after the award of the contract.
The Navy Federal Credit Union expansion and Renovation in
Vienna, Virginia included stainless steel, glass handrails
as well as all miscellaneous metals.
The WAMO Facility at Andrews Air Force Base was mostly structural
and took nine months to complete. We are currently involved
