The most fundamental part of a wrought iron fence is the post. These vertical structures serve as the backbone of the fence, providing support and strength. Typically made from solid iron, the posts are installed deep into the ground to ensure stability. The height and thickness of the posts can vary based on the desired aesthetics and level of security. Additionally, decorative post caps can be added to enhance the overall look, giving each fence a unique character.

Moreover, the material features definitive cross-sections allowing an easier machining process, which increases flexibility.

we typically use one-inch square posts core drilled and set in hydraulic cement when we’re installing railings. For fencing, we use heavy duty steel posts that we galvanize, prime, and paint, set into concrete footings. The environment of your property may influence preparations as well: for instance, galvanizing is particularly important if the structure is near water.
