Who is Iron Sleek?

Iron Sleek, Inc. was founded by life long friends who love sports and recreational activities and happen to be engineers.  As natives and current residents of Chicago, we experience the four seasons every year and enjoy the unique beauty of each of them.  We are in awe of nature and love to participate in it to the fullest with our friends and families.  When winter rolls around, we are all about the backyard rink.  Backyard rinks bring communities together and provide an atmosphere for family fun.  We built our first rink the old fashioned way…without a liner or a tarp.  This resulted in endless nights of sprinkling water on the grass in the shivering Chicago cold, then watching it melt away on the first lake effect thaw in late December!  Back then, when rink internet postings were at a minimum, we learned the 3F method from a Canadian Periodical: Frame-Fill-Freeze.  We thought the local hardware store had all the answers, but we were wrong.  Building a rink frame turned out to be a very custom and labor intensive task.  Consequently,  we set ourselves on a mission to build an "Exact Bracket" for all the "rinkers" of the world.  Our design team set a goal to design a compact, versatile, strong steel bracket that stored and shipped efficiently, and eliminated the tripping hazard around the rink.  Thus, the Iron Sleek!!!  We started with our patented bracket and have continued to innovate.  We added several new components and Iron Sleek is now a one stop shop for the backyard rinker.  We are not simply resellers who repurpose and market existing products but are manufacturers and engineers of specifically designed products for outdoor rinks.

Why Build Your Backyard Ice Rink with an Iron Sleek Rink System?

• The brackets are made of steel and are strong enough to support the force of the water and ice.
• The contour of the bracket is designed to grab the earth, so the bracket stays in the ground.  Other brackets pull out easily.
• The elimination of the cross-member removes a tripping hazard.  People falling while they walk around the rink will be a thing of the past.
• The brackets are rigid yet compact.  They ship inexpensively to customers everywhere and fold down for storage in the off season.
• The accessories that are part of the Iron Sleek system allow you to build rinks up to a depth of 18" of water.  Allowing you to build rinks in locations with up to 15" of pitch.
• If you have trouble measuring your pitch, brackets can be installed after the rink is built.  Simply use our installation tool to add another bracket between two existing ones. Other brackets make this difficult or impossible.
• If your walls turn out a few inches short or you want to make them high enough to retain the puck, just add a few extension brackets and another board, and your walls get higher without a complete teardown.
