812-3453-4344 Why Choose an Aluminum Fence?
Aluminum fencing is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking a durable, stylish, and low-maintenance option. It offers the look of wrought iron without the high cost and upkeep. Beyond its beauty, aluminum is resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring it can withstand the elements without losing its aesthetic appeal. This quality makes it an excellent choice for both backyard and pool fencing.
Benefits of an Aluminum Fence
Corrosion Resistance
Aluminum fences are resistant to rust, corrosion, and weathering, ensuring they maintain their appearance and structural integrity over time.
Low Maintenance
Unlike wood or wrought iron, aluminum fences require minimal maintenance. A simple wash with soap and water is usually sufficient to keep them looking new. This is because of the factory-applied powder coat provides color and weatherproofing.
Flexible Installation
Aluminium can be easily bent, shaped, and formed without losing its structural integrity or cross-sectional area. This allows for smooth maneuvering around obstacles and in complex layouts.

Cleaning Your Aluminum Fence is Simple
Mix vinegar with warm water and apply the mixture with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage your fence's finish. Start from the top and work your way down to avoid streaking. Once you've scrubbed away the dirt and grime, rinse the fence thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue.
We Recommend Inspecting your Fence Twice a Year
Look for signs of damage like loose screws, chipped paint, or corrosion. Catching these minor issues early on prevents them from becoming bigger headaches.
Cover Scratches with Exterior Paint
Minor scratches on the powder coating can expose the aluminum underneath. To protect the metal beneath, we recommend using exterior-grade semi-gloss paint to touch up these scratches. About 85% of aluminum fences are black, so finding a paint that matches should be easy.
