Selecting A Fence Type

Fencing comes in a variety of materials and styles such as steel, aluminum. These materials have different applications, durability and price points, but the most obvious difference is their look.

Steel Fences

Steel Fences are the heaviest but most durable fencing available. Wrought iron fences were custom fabricated in Europe and the US out of solid steel. They featured ornate decorations, were extremely expensive, and there are very few fabricators of this type of fencing today.

The modern version of wrought iron is known as ornamental steel fencing. You’ve likely seen it in your neighborhood, around your child’s playground, or surrounding a local public storage.

Today’s fences feature hollow pickets and rails to reduce the weight, but utilize hot-rolled steel, zinc galvanization, and powder coat finishes to provide the most robust fence to endure the elements and time.

Aluminum Fences‌

Just like modern ornamental steel fence, ornamental aluminum fencing draws its design inspiration from historic wrought iron fencing. However, aluminum offers significant advantages over steel in terms of weight and corrosion resistance. ‌When compared to ornamental steel fences, aluminum fences are considerably lighter‌, making them easier to install and transport. The unique properties of aluminum also make it highly resistant to rust and corrosion, particularly in harsh environments.

Aluminum fences have gained popularity in coastal areas and near seawater, where the salty air can quickly corrode steel fencing. In these environments, ‌aluminum's corrosion resistance shines, as it maintains its appearance and structural integrity over time‌. While aluminum may not provide the same level of strength and durability as steel, its lightweight nature and corrosion resistance make it an excellent choice for applications where these qualities are prioritized.

Additionally, aluminum fences are often chosen for their aesthetic appeal. They can be designed to mimic the intricate patterns and styles of historic wrought iron fencing, while still offering the modern benefits of aluminum's light weight and durability. This combination of traditional design and modern materials makes aluminum fences a popular choice for a wide range of applications, from residential yards to commercial properties‌

Temporary fence:

The design of this guardrail is very practical, and its biggest feature is its temporary and movable nature. Unlike permanent building fences, it is not fixed, but can be installed and removed at any time as needed. This flexibility allows it to play an excellent role in various temporary occasions, such as construction sites, event venues or temporary exhibition areas.

‌Due to its easy movement and disassembly, the transportation and storage of this guardrail are also very convenient. When it is needed, it can be simply reassembled without a complicated installation process.

‌In addition, the reusability of this guardrail is also a highlight. It is not a one-time use product, but can maintain good performance after multiple uses and disassembly

‌Finally, this guardrail also has a certain market value. When it is not needed, it can be sold to other parties in need, thereby realizing the reuse of resources. This saleability not only increases the economic value of the guardrail, but also provides the possibility for its circulation in the market, further expanding its scope of application.
