Livers Bronze Announces Strategic Merger with DeAngelis Iron Work, Inc.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Livers Bronze, a Kansas City-based manufacturer of ornamental handrail systems, today announced a strategic merger with DeAngelis Iron Work, Inc., a South Easton, Massachusetts-based fabricator of architectural metals, steel stairs, handrails and restoration projects.

The merger creates a framework for the two companies to collaborate while maintaining the customer relationships, project teams and operating practices that have made each business successful. Livers Bronze and DeAngelis Iron Work will continue operating under their respective names, with existing leadership and personnel in place.

"This merger combines two companies with long histories, complementary capabilities and an unrelenting commitment to craftsmanship, quality and customer service," said John Livers, CEO of Livers Bronze.
