Winterizing Your Deck and Fence
Ornamental Steel Fences
Ornamental steel fences are the new craze in the fencing industry. These types of fences have a similar look to wrought iron but are lighter & more durable without all of the maintenance required with wrought iron. Steel fences are heavy duty and resistant to damage and wind. You do not have to worry about staining or painting a steel fence. Most steel fences are galvanized* and treated with a powder coating to prevent rusting. Due to their strength and durability, steel fences are often used for security purposes. If you’re looking for a fence to last many years without showing much wear & tear then steel fencing is the way to go.
Pros of Steel Fencing:

*The term galvanized means that the steel has been coated with a protective layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion.
