Wrought Iron Fences

Adding security, safety, and visual quality, fences are of considerable benefit to any commercial or residential property. Even so, there is a lot of choice when thinking about adding a fence to your property. Many fences are wooden, some vinyl, others stainless steel, and then there’s the old trusty wrought iron option. A long time favorite of homeowners in both Florida and further afield, wrought iron fencing has a variety of benefits. As far as metal, it's one of the original and oldest materials. Although the popularity is past its peak, it's no wonder these fences, gates and window bars or iron doors are still produced today. They can last a lifetime. They're easy to care for and they have a timeless look, plus can be fabricated in all kinds of unique patterns.

Tough Materials, Good Looks

When choosing a material for an outdoor fence, durability and toughness should always be high in your priority list. There’s no point in installing a fence that is only going to last a short period of time, after all. Luckily, wrought iron fencing offers best-in-class quality in this regard. This material is tough as nails, capable of withstanding both physical and environmental forces when properly installed. If you want an outdoor fence that will stay in a near-mint condition, a wrought iron fence is a fabulous option. The most common look across America is probably the gloss black, painted iron fence. We've seen fences that look like they have received 10 layers of paint before. Part of the reason for this is that it helps prevent rust. Although wrought iron can rust, it's more difficult than some metals and a protective coating, like paint, will do wonders to create a barrier that keeps moisture from reaching the metal and starting to rust. There is also the option of powder coating which (when done right) provides a perfectly smooth coat with no drips. It can be added in gloss or matte in a multitude of colors. Ask about the option of a powder coated wrought iron fence because the look is great and the protection and longevity that comes with it will be sure to please.

Low Maintenance

With wooden fences, you’re expected to apply varnishes and protective paints to the surface on a consistent basis. This can be a time intensive and expensive endeavor, which is the last thing most people want to deal with. As mentioned before, wrought iron is highly durable. That means not only does it not damage easily, but it also requires only light maintenance. Occasional hosing down to clean off any debris should be more than enough to keep your fence in a good condition, significant accidents notwithstanding. For those who want to have a fence installed and then forget about it, wrought iron fences are one of the top options.

Adding Perceived Value

Property value matters a great deal to property owners, which is no surprise. But when thinking about the value of a property, there are two metrics to consider: actual value and perceived value. Actual value is where changes to a property alter the characteristics of the building in a way that adds true value. Perceived value is more about how valuable people think a property is based on looks. While you want to raise actual value, perceived value is also important. Wrought iron fences add significant perceived value as well as actual value, making them a worthy investment. The lifespan of some wrought iron railings have outlasted the homes they were built for making them an investment you don't need to fret over.

Aesthetic Appeal

The reason that wrought iron fences add so much perceived value is largely due to the excellent aesthetic appeal they offer. Classy and elegant in nature, a wrought iron fence can considerably improve the curb appeal of a property.
