How do you know wrought iron fencing is the best fit for your needs? While this form of fencing requires more of an initial investment than other forms of fencing, it also tends to be the least expensive kind of fence to install in the long run.

Here are four benefits of wrought iron fencing you may not have considered yet. 

#1) Security

Few fences are as secure as a wrought iron fence. They’re difficult to climb. They offer little in the way of handholds or footholds.

Certain styles can even make climbing a painful proposition.

If security is your number one reason for installing a fence, then you should give wrought iron your due consideration.

#2) Longevity

Few fasts last as long as a wrought iron fence. The fence itself can last for multiple lifetimes.

The finish on the fence won’t last as long. You’ll need to get the powder coating on your fence replaced every 20 years or so. Nevertheless, purchasing a wrought iron fence is the closest you’ll ever get to the fencing version of “fix it and forget it.”

#3) Convenience

Wrought iron fences don’t need much maintenance. 

They need to be cleaned every 6 months. While cleaning them, they need you to attend to a bit of rust removal if you find any. 

If your fence is painted instead of powder coated then you should paint it with a rust-inhibitive primer and paint at least once a year. 

After that, you can sit back, relax, and put your feet up. Not much damages or harms a wrought iron fence. They’re especially nice here in the Houston metro area, since mold and mildew don’t attack iron. 

#4) Beauty

It’s hard to overstate the classic elegance of a wrought iron fence. 

It’s the fencing choice for the White House, Buckingham Palace, the Eiffel Tower, and numerous estates around the world.

Adding a wrought iron fence to your property will instantly elevate it, increasing property values and adding prestige.
