​
A wrought iron fence is a metal picket line with rails and optional rings or finials. It is not a privacy product. Most new jobs use steel or aluminum made to that look. True hand-forged iron is rare on a standard residential bid. We quote the metal that matches the look and the maintenance you will accept.
​
Aluminum is lighter and does not rust the way bare steel can. Steel is heavier and can take more bumping. Powder-coated finishes are the usual choice. Pool lots sometimes need this style for a barrier that still leaves a view.
​
We handle layout, posts, panels, and gates. Grade and post spacing matter. A wavy metal line looks worse than a wavy wood line because the eye expects metal to be straight.

​
What is a wrought iron fence?
​
Metal pickets on a rail. Open view. Strong edge. Decorative options if you want them. New work is usually steel or aluminum with that face.
​
Will it rust?
​
Bare steel will if the coating fails. Aluminum does not rust like steel. Finish still chalks and scratches. We talk coating and touch-up on the visit.
​
Is it a privacy fence?
​
No. If you need the yard hidden, pick wood, vinyl, or composite. Metal is for definition, security of a kind, and curb look.
​
Permits and pools?
​
Barrier rules and height rules apply. Pool code is specific. We do not guess that from a text thread. We look at the lot.
​
Install is posts, panels, gates, latch and closer hardware as required. Alignment is the job. A single racked panel shows.
​
Repair is usually bent pickets, a sagging gate, or a post that moved. Sections can often be swapped. A full redo is for when the finish and the posts are both gone.
​
Panel style should be picked standing in the yard. Rings and finials that look right on a website can look busy on a short city lot. Simple pickets are enough for a lot of fronts.
​
If you need more privacy later, metal will not become a wall. Planting or a second line behind it is a different project. Hear that before you buy an open product and hope leaves will fill it by June.
​
Sandy Springs Fencing will tell you straight whether you want metal or a privacy wall. Call the number above and walk the front with us.
Gate width on metal is easy to underestimate. A mower is wider than people think. Measure the machine, not the memory of the machine.
Powder coat touch-up is part of ownership if something chips. We can point you to a matching paint. Ignoring a chip on steel is how rust starts at the nick.
​
On slopes we rack or step panels. Ask to see which method we plan. It changes the look at the bottom rail.
​
For pool work, bring whatever the inspector or builder already gave you. We build to the rule in front of us, not to a story about what passed three streets over last year.
​
Metal shows welds, racks, and sloppy posts. That is the trade-off for a clean look. Hire the layout, not only the panel.
​
If you want a privacy screen on one side and metal on the front, we can plan a transition. It should look decided, with a post that belongs to both stories.
​
Dogs can bend low pickets if they hit the same spot every day. A lower rail or a different product on that stretch is a better fix than calling every spring.
​
Ask for the finish color by the name on the chart. “Black” is not one color. We order what you picked, not what the warehouse had in a close shade.
When the job is done we check every latch and every post cap. A missing cap is how water sits in a post. Small thing. Worth the last five minutes.
If you need a pedestrian gate and a vehicle opening, those are two specs. One latch style does not fit both. Write both on the quote.
​
We can sample a panel against brick and siding in daylight. Indoor lighting lies. Take the two minutes in the yard.
For HOA packets, metal often passes where a solid wall does not. That can be the whole reason to pick this product. Bring the packet so we design to it instead of arguing later.
