This one isn’t as exciting or as fun as looking at completed fence project photos, but its probably the most important and overlooked item that can make the difference between being an informed shopper and regretting your purchase.  Cutting corners on component sizes, thicknesses and finishes is a time honored tradition of lower-end companies that try to undercut higher quality pieces with a lower price.  Don’t get me wrong.  Price is important, but if you are saving $20 and getting a piece that is half the thickness, weight and will rust in 3 years; are you really getting a good deal?  Any fence and gate maker worth their salt will have the ability to provide you specifications (specs) on the pieces you are buying.  You can find and download both our abbreviated ‘quick specs’ and our full specs on our specifications page.  Look for something fully versed and thought out like our specs versus some simple bullet points or a short blurb on a web page.

Common decorative elements include ornamental scrollwork, floral motifs, and geometric patterns. The addition of embellishments such as finials, leaves, and other natural forms adds character and flair to the pieces. Blacksmiths often incorporate techniques like forging, welding, and casting to achieve their desired outcomes, resulting in a wide array of textures and finishes.
