Aluminum Fences
Elegant, maintenance-free fencing that combines classic wrought-iron looks with modern durability.
Aluminum fencing gives you the sophisticated look of wrought iron without the weight, rust, or maintenance headaches. These fences add elegance to any Tulare property while providing security and defining boundaries. If you want a fence that looks high-end but doesn't require constant care, aluminum is worth considering.
The Benefits of Aluminum Fencing
Aluminum has become increasingly popular with homeowners who appreciate quality and design. It offers a unique combination of benefits that few other materials can match:
- ✓Classic wrought-iron appearance at lower cost
- ✓Never rusts or corrodes, even in wet conditions
- ✓Requires zero maintenance beyond occasional washing
- ✓Powder-coated finish won't chip, peel, or fade
- ✓Lightweight yet surprisingly strong
- ✓Works on slopes and uneven ground
- ✓Lasts 30-40 years with no upkeep
Unlike wrought iron, aluminum won't rust even if the coating gets scratched. This makes it perfect for areas near sprinklers, pools, or anywhere moisture is present. The powder-coated finish is baked on at high temperatures, creating a bond that lasts for decades.
Where Aluminum Fencing Shines
Aluminum fencing works beautifully in specific situations where you want both function and style:
Pool Enclosures
Aluminum is the top choice for pool fencing because it doesn't rust from constant water exposure. It meets all safety codes while looking elegant around your pool area. The open design lets you see the pool from your house.
Front Yards
Create an impressive entrance to your property with aluminum's decorative appeal. It defines your space without blocking views, which is perfect for showcasing your landscaping and maintaining curb appeal.
Accent Fencing
Use aluminum to highlight specific areas like garden sections, patios, or walkways. It adds visual interest and structure to your outdoor spaces without overwhelming them.
Properties with Slopes
Aluminum panels can be racked to follow slopes and uneven terrain. This makes installation easier on hillside properties where other fence types might struggle.
Styles and Color Options
Aluminum fencing comes in a surprising variety of styles. From simple and clean to ornate and decorative, there's a design to match your home's architecture. Popular options include:
Traditional picket styles with spear-top or flat-top designs create classic appeal. Three-rail styles offer an open feel that works well for larger properties. Decorative panels with scrollwork or rings add Victorian-era elegance. Modern designs with horizontal rails give contemporary homes a sleek look.
Black is the most popular color choice because it mimics wrought iron and works with any home color. Bronze and dark green are also common for a softer appearance. White aluminum creates a clean, crisp look that pairs beautifully with traditional architecture.
Heights typically range from 3 to 6 feet for residential properties, though taller options exist for specific needs. We'll help you choose the height and style that fits your property best.
