Ornamental fence has enhanced architectural beauty of homes, buildings and churches for hundreds of years. Unlike the days of old when wrought iron was manufactured by blacksmiths, today's ornamental fence is manufactured using up to date standards, materials and processes. It is easy to select an ornamental fence for every kind of application and requirement.
The beauty of metal fencing is something to behold. It inspirss a feeling of sturdiness, elegance, safety and prosperity that other fencing materials cannot bring. While not inexpensive, a metal fence will literally last for generations with a little care and maintenance.
Metal also works well as a main gate or entrance and blends well with other types of fencing materials. The different styles and embellishments can truly only be matched by the customers imagination. Some property owners, either residential or commercial, may want more than “just a fence.”
Wrought iron is particularly appealing when used to enhance a front entrance to a relatively large property. When used in conunction with a variety of landscapes, a statement of elegance and formality can be achieved which never fails to draw the admiration of passersby.
Another popular application of wrought iron fences is to satisfy building code bylaws regarding swimming pools and safety, as this fencing is, for all intents and purposes, considered non-climbable. A wrought iron enclosure, with appropriate gate hardware, will fulfill all swimming pool enclosure requirements, and at the same time, allow the swimmers to appreciate the outdoor surroundings.
Wrought iron fence is available in a variety of colors and all work is powder coated. Some cities no longer allow chain link in front yards, and in come caes, not at all. Those that do, restrict chain link to a 4' high or less in the front yards and up to 6' high in the back yards. Many cities allow ornamental iron to be as high as 6' in the front also know as “estate fences”.
