Landscaping with Steel

The landscaping that you do at your home or business can really change the way your building looks, by adding color, texture, and excitement to the space surrounding your building. If you have never considered the ways you can use steel in your yard, here are just a few ideas to get you started. There are so many different looks and feels for steel that this is just a starting list—the true possibilities are endless when you use your imagination for landscape steel.

Steel Edging
When you want to dress up your plant bed, or have areas that you want to set apart from the rest of the yard, steel edging is a great way to make those spots stand out. You can get a wide variety of different steel colors and shades to highlight the best parts of your landscaping. Since it’s a very durable and strong material (one of the highest strength-to-weight ratios of any metal), steel from Wasatch Steel can withstand years of abuse out in the yard without wearing out. It is much more durable than plastic, wood, or even concrete or brick, which can crack and get damaged over time. In addition, it requires very little maintenance (if any at all), making it ideal for anyone who wants to maximize enjoyment of the yard while minimizing work required to keep it looking great.

Steel Railings
You can also use steel as a great decorative piece for your deck railing. One of the benefits of steel railings, including balusters, spindles, and other parts of your deck railing, is that it will not only look great when you install it right at first, but it will remain looking great for many, many years to come. There are dozens of different designs, shapes, and sizes that you can choose for your deck railing, and Wasatch Steel has all the variety you need at our Utah steel supermarket. We can even create custom designs for your railings, or you can choose from a huge selection of unique designs from our steel designers.

Steel Yard Art & Garden Ornaments
Another place where you can really let your personality shine through in your yard is with steel yard art or garden ornaments. These objects come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, from pre-made artwork that you can simply install, to the odds and ends you’ll find at the steel supermarket of Wasatch Steel. We collect all kinds of interesting shapes and sizes of steel pieces so you can have the freedom to create your own artwork. We have everything from small pieces that you can make wind ornaments or place in your flower garden to larger pieces you can use to make a unique fire pit or chairs and benches for the yard.

The beauty of using steel in your yard is that it is limited only by your imagination. If you can think of a way to use steel, Wasatch Steel can help you find just the right pieces to make your vision come to life.
