What Roy does
Roy owns the shop and the showroom in Porter. Every iron door, gate, railing and lantern Amador sells is designed and built 100% in house, and two full-time engineers work alongside the artisans.
He works with homeowners across Greater Houston and the Austin area, and with the home builders Amador holds contracts with.
What Roy writes about
Roy and Cynthia write Amador's buyer guides and blog together. Roy covers the shop side: how a door is built, what changes the price and how to care for iron.
