From terrace railings which provide safety and rigidity on a shore home, to fencing, keeping wildlife from the beautiful landscape and burglars from valuable possessions. Iron can create gates for controlled access, too. With the correct finishing strategies for your unique design, iron can last a lifetime and beyond.
