6 Features Of Wrought Iron

Published by Webmaster

Have you ever given any thought to having wrought iron railings in Chicago at your home or place or business? Known for their beauty and durability, wrought iron fencing will add a touch of elegance to your property that lasts for years. And with our dedication to quality service and the use of only the finest materials, Top Line Fence is the company you need to contact.

We don’t want to get bogged down in details, but it might help to explain just what wrought iron is. Simply stated, wrought iron is a very low carbon iron alloy that is extremely strong but also very malleable. And that malleability makes wrought iron the material of choice in producing beautifully designed and shaped fences and gates.

For good measure, wrought iron has several other features which we want to point out.

  • Wrought iron is an extremely durable fencing that lasts for years, and unlike wood, it will not dry out, rot and warp or deteriorate quickly.
  • If you’re into gardening, your plants can wrap themselves around wrought iron fencing and it won’t rot and collapse. It also looks beautiful when paired with plants of any size, shape or color.
  • Wrought iron is much stronger than many other fencing materials, and that makes it an excellent choice for security purposes.
  • With its wide-spacing rails, wrought iron fencing provides a view of your beautiful home or place of business to visitors, clients or those simply passing by.
  • Wrought iron is pest resistant and invulnerable to rodents and other creatures that can damage a wood fence.
  • Finally, for sheer elegance and classic beauty, there is nothing else that matches a wrought iron fence which can be as simple or as ornate as you desire.

With those points, we hope we’ve convinced you of the need for wrought iron railings in Chicago to both beautify and protect your property. If so, please fill out the contact form on this page and let one of our professionals provide a free estimate of your fencing needs. We will then help you design your fence and stay at your side until the project is finished to your complete satisfaction.
