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.
