Metal goods are in row, perhaps (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ironware

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'metal goods' is the definition.
'ironware' can be an answer for 'goods' (I have seen 'Metallic goods ' mean 'ironware' so perhaps 'goods' could also mean 'ironware'). I am not certain of the 'metal' bit.

'are in row perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' is an anagram indicator.
'are'+'in'+'row'='areinrow'
'areinrow' is an anagram of 'IRONWARE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ironware that I've seen before include "For example, pans" , "Class of metal goods" , "heavy goods" , "weighty equipment" , "Category of metal goods" .)
