Aluminum Fences

Many people think aluminum fences are only for commercial installations. Expensive homes in South Florida are using aluminum today as the number one preferred material because it withstands weathering in ways steel and iron won't. 

When I say "aluminum fence" to many of my friends, they instantly think of the large panel fences that surround a junk yard. But today, aluminum fencing can be similar in design to wrought iron fences, wood fences, and other attractive materials. They can be ornamental, gated, and classy. And aluminum fences can be as strong as steel. Some manufacturers use an alloy that provides additional rigidity and durability to an otherwise "soft" metal.

Installation of an aluminum fence is substantially the same as for any other fence, and because of the flexibility of the material, aluminum allows for plenty of variety in design. Determining the right height, the proper spacing for bars, and compliance with state and local laws is an essential part of picking the right contractor for the job. You'll want to look at many fence designs to determine which one fits your home best. Some fence companies can take a picture of your home and superimpose the fence on the picture, giving you a "real-time" view of what the finished job will look like.

One of the greatest benefits of aluminum is its projected (or expected) lifespan. The most reputable companies will offer a long-term or lifetime warranty on the materials. Some companies offer many products other than fencing, but those who are only fence manufacturers, or installers, certainly have the edge on experience. And when it comes to doing it right, experience is where the best quality construction comes about.  And if aluminum fences aren't for you, then you can always rely on other great styles, such as composite, wood, ornamental, and chain link fences.

Given the flexibility of styles, the strength of aluminum alloys, and the rust-free life expectancy of aluminum fencing, you may want to consider making a purchase that is well-worth your money, and that also gives your home that great look you’ve always wanted.
