Metal fence installation Vaughan, ON
Our metal fencing contractors will install your aluminum, steel or wrought iron fencing with care and precision. We consider the space and the function when we do the install so that you can enjoy your enclosure worry-free. Let’s dive into the different classes of metal fencing.
We install: Wrought iron fencing: this is the premium metal option that will last decades and through generations. It does have to be maintained regularly, however, to prevent rust and corrosion, but if taken care of well, your property value will remain high and it will have the unparalleled curb appeal that very few fencing materials can rival. Steel fencing: steel is very strong and durable and is a great choice for residential and commercial properties, particularly for security fencing use. Steel fence options usually include solid and tubular steel. Solid steel is heavy and will effectively detract intruders. Because of its weight, the shipping and transport cost to deliver this material adds to the ticket price of steel fence installation. |

Furthermore, it is also high maintenance to prevent rusting. If you don’t need such a heavy duty fence, a great alternative is tubular steel. As the name implies, the interior is hollow which allows the weight to be lightened, thus reducing the overall cost. The drawback is that even though it will be galvanized to offer corrosion resistance, deep scratches and some superficial ones can penetrate the galvanized coating leaving it susceptible to rust. Think of rust as the infection and the coating as skin that’s been compromised. Despite all this, steel is a great metal option for security, aesthetics and durability.
Aluminum fencing: one of the most affordable metal fencing options, aluminum can mimic the look of steel. It’s hard to duplicate the look of wrought iron with aluminum, but when you come across metal fencing, you might be hard pressed to tell if it’s steel or aluminum. But if you know your fencing and you know your metals, a tell-tale sign that it’s aluminum is that you’ll probably see the screws that attach the posts and rails together. If you’re not an expert, you probably wouldn’t even notice it.
So which metal fencing option should you choose?
Given the features of each metal we talked about, ask yourselves these questions:

So which metal fencing option should you choose?
Given the features of each metal we talked about, ask yourselves these questions:
- “What’s my budget?” If you’re working with a big budget, go for wrought iron or steel fencing. If your short term budget is lower, go for tubular steel or aluminum fencing as the upfront costs are much lower.
- “Do I want this fence to last generations, or do I want a fence that serves a specific purpose while adding an aesthetic appeal while I’m living here?” If it’s the former, go for wrought iron or solid steel. If it’s the latter where you don’t know how long this property will be under your hands, go for tubular steel or aluminum.
- “I want my metal fence to look nice, but my main concern is security.” If security is the priority, you’ll want wrought iron or steel. Aluminum has the advantage of being lightweight, but with that comes the ability to more easily trespass.
