Aluminum & Metal Fence
Lightweight, rust-resistant aluminum and steel fencing for residential and commercial properties.
Aluminum and metal fencing that delivers the look of wrought iron without the weight or ongoing rust maintenance.
Aluminum fence panels are popular for front yards, pool enclosures and commercial perimeters because they resist corrosion and never need painting. We use powder-coated posts and panels with reinforced rails so the fence stays rigid over time.
For heavier security or industrial sites, steel fencing and welded panels provide a stronger barrier and can be paired with automated gates and access control.
Where aluminum fits best
- You want a modern horizontal slat look at the street frontage
- Coastal or poolside exposure where steel would corrode faster
- A long run where a lighter panel means fewer, smaller footings
- Low-maintenance frontage — no staining, sealing or annual repainting
- A fence that has to colour-match an existing gate or window frames
How we set an aluminum fence
We lay out the run and check the fall across it first. On a sloping lot the panels either rack with the grade or step down it, and that decision changes how the line looks from the street.
Posts are set to depth for the panel height and local wind exposure, then aligned before any panel goes on.
Panels are set with consistent ground clearance so the fence reads as a straight line even where the ground is not.
Gate posts are treated differently to line posts — heavier and deeper, because they carry a swinging load rather than a static one.
Panel styles
- Horizontal slat
- Contemporary look, adjustable gap for partial or full privacy.
- Vertical picket
- Classic open fencing with clear sightlines.
- Privacy panel
- Closed face for screening — carries more wind load, so footings scale up.
- Steel security panel
- Where impact and forced-entry resistance matter more than weight.
- Powder-coated colours
- Matched to trim, gate or window frames.
What affects the scope and the price
- Linear footage, panel height and privacy versus open picket
- Grade change across the run — racking or stepping
- Number of gates and pedestrian openings
- Digging conditions: rock, roots, existing hardscape or utilities
- Wind exposure, which drives post depth on solid panels
What's included
- Powder-coated aluminum in black, bronze and white finishes
- Welded steel security and industrial fencing
- Rackable panels for sloped yards
- Matching gates, latches and self-closing hinges
Maintenance
Aluminum does not rust, but the powder coat still benefits from a rinse in coastal and dusty areas.
Check gate hinges and latches yearly — the panels outlast the moving hardware.
