Our Story

As far back as the early 1600s the Turners were providing iron works to the community in and around Dublin. Learn about our rich past, from the 17th to the 21st century!

What is our history?

The first recorded client work was in the 1670s and Turner’s descendants carried on the business, delivering works into the 1700s.

Our Managing Director’s ancestor, Richard Turner, took over the business at Hammersmith Dublin in the early 1800s and projected the company forwards with his deep understanding of metalwork and iron in particular. This continued as a family run business until the end of the 19th century.

As recent authors have attested, Turner was undoubtedly a good salesman and proud of his knowledge and skill in handling the materials of which he was a craftsman. It seems that he was unafraid to put his opinions across to clients and fight for designs that he knew to be good and innovate solutions. Most of all he cared about delivering good service to his clients and the legacy that it would represent.

How has this shaped Hammersmith Works today?

It is on this traditional concept that we have created a very modern company. Assembling the expertise of access specialists, master craftsmen and dedicated staff, we have forged a team capable of delivering complex projects and maintenance works for clients.

We have taken the model of fully understanding our clients’ needs and developing a service that fits their exact requirements. The company is focused on ensuring that our team is fundamentally safe and happy in the workplace, confident in the knowledge that their work is valued and represents the understanding of the privilege they have to work on some of the most iconic sites in the capital.
