Facts About Wrought Iron Fence

Wrought iron fence is a heavy fencing material made up of gauge square tubing for its vertical pickets and punched channel for its horizontal rails.  If you are looking for a heavy-duty fence, a wrought iron fence is the fence for you. This fencing is great for high security settings and a great fence to install if you expect much wear and tear. It is a very beautiful fence. Wrought iron fencing is best installed on level terrain or a retaining wall.  Typical wrought iron panels are 48” high X 96” wide, which means that its panels are wider than most aluminum fencing.  Panels also weigh about 47 pounds each, making it a heavy material to work with, but it also means a highly sturdy fence once installed.  Wrought iron comes only in a black powder coated finish. Wrought iron also requires a bit of maintenance, as it will eventually rust over the years when exposed to the outside environment.
