Metals are quickly becoming a very fashionable choice with a surge in popularity for both modern architecture and classic looks. Wasatch Steel has all the materials you need to create something amazing, whether you prefer more traditional looks or you want to go with something more modern. Here are five different ways you can add to your landscape with steel fences.
This type of steel, also known as COR-TEN or weathering steel, was developed for the purpose of avoiding the need to paint to prevent rust. In fact, it is exposed to weather to give it a “rusted” look. This type of steel has become popular for fence designs because it offers a rustic, natural brown color when using it as a partition between your home and your neighbor’s. It has long been used in outdoor metal sculptures and has a very artistic appearance that many homeowners enjoy.
Another popular trend in steel fences is the use of painted metal panels. Steel is a great material to use when you want colored metal because it holds paint very well. Originally steel was painted as a way to protect it from rusting or being exposed to weather, but today it is often for style as well. Instead of the boring, traditional colors of outdoor fencing (white, beige, and brown), a painted metal panel fence can give you a splash of color in your yard.
If you are looking for a truly unique and modern fence design, consider material like galvanized metal from Wasatch Steel. Whether you use it in horizontal or vertical sheets with wood or another material for balusters and rails, or you prefer to go with smaller sections designed to mimic the look of wood fencing, galvanized metal offers low cost, low maintenance, strength, and durability.
Another reason that metal fencing has become so popular is the widespread use of powder coating. Like paint, powder coating provides a protective layer for your steel fence, but using it in powder form reduces air pollution that comes from solvents in liquid paint.
Iron & Steel Spindles
Of course, many homeowners still love the classic look of steel spindles for a fence. Today there are so many different colors, shapes, sizes, and styles that you can create a truly custom fence design with materials from Wasatch Steel. At the steel supermarket you can even bring your ideas and we can create custom spindles to make the vision for your yard a reality.
