Aluminum or Wrought Iron?
They can look similar from the street. Here's the honest difference.
Aluminum is lighter and doesn't rust, so it holds up well in humid weather with less upkeep. It's also usually less expensive to install.
Wrought iron is heavier and stronger, and it suits owners who want a more substantial fence. But iron can rust once its finish wears, so it needs more upkeep over time.
Neither is right for everyone. Tell us what the fence needs to do, and we'll give you a straight recommendation. Already have an iron fence? See wrought iron repair and painting.
