Iron Is Durable

Iron Fencing is known as the "100-year fencing" because it is extremely durable. It can handle storms and temperature changes. Iron is a strong material that can withstand day-to-day wear and harsh weather. While wooden fences rot and warp with time, iron fences are durable and stand the test of time. Also, iron fences are not vulnerable to termite damage as other materials risk.

Curb Appeal

Iron Fencing is one of the most attractive fencing. It just looks good. It will aid any porch or yard look aesthetically pleasing. Although iron fencing can be used as a boundary and for security, many people use iron fencing around their gardens to create an attractive environment. Iron fences are very open and act as an accent, it allows viewers to enjoy the sights past the fence.

Pool Fencing

I definitely recommend iron fencing as decorative accent around a pool and in a garden. Flat/Flush top and bottom iron fencing is desired for hotels, water parks and around a pool because they are the safest. You don't have to worry about scratching your foot on the bottom or getting caught on wire. We will install the iron real clean.

Additionally iron fencing is hard to climb if you are using it to keep children out of the pool area.

Low Maintenance

Iron Fencing is low maintenance. Upkeep of iron is fairly simple. We recommend you repaint the fence every two or three years to prevent rust and keep the fence looking attractive. Since Iron is strong, it doesn't require regular repairs compared to other types of fences.

Due to the fact that Iron fencing requires little maintenance it adds value to your home. Iron fencing will provide your home with an upscale and timeless look that stands out in your neighborhood.

Security

Most homeowners fence their homes and properties for security. Whether your security intentions are to keep an intruder out or keep children and pets safe in your yard, iron fencing will not disappoint you. An Iron fence does a good job securing your property and serves as a deterrent to intruders. Iron fences can be built to be hard to climb or have pickets on the top for a hidden area. Iron is strong, so this makes it hard to break with tools.
