A wrought iron fence that looks as good as the house.
Wrought iron fencing is what you choose when you want the property to look finished and you still want to see through the fence. Superior Exterior Fencing builds custom ornamental iron fences and matching gates for pool enclosures, front entries and estate perimeters, finished in powder-coated black. Scrollwork and custom gate details are available on request.
If you searched for a wrought iron fence company near you, here is what to expect from us: a walk of the property, a design that suits the house, and gates built in our own fabrication shop, with the owner overseeing the fence, the gates and the finish from start to end.
Four places iron makes the most sense.
Iron is not the answer to every fence line, and we will say so if wood or chain link suits your goal better. These are the jobs where it earns its cost.
Pool enclosures
Iron lets you keep an eye on the water from the patio. Pool barriers have safety rules for height, picket spacing and gate latching that vary by city, so those details get settled before the design is final.
Front entries and courtyards
A low iron fence and a matching gate set the tone at the street without walling in the front yard.
Estate and acreage perimeters
Long, open fence lines with brick or stone columns give a large property a clear edge and keep the view.
Backyards that back to green space
Where there is something worth looking at beyond the property line, iron keeps the view that a solid wood fence would block.
Choices that shape the look and the cost.
Height, picket spacing, the style of the top rail, and how much scrollwork you want all change the look and the price. Tighter spacing keeps small pets in and adds material. Decorative finials and arched gates add labor. Gate hardware and any automation on the gate are a large part of the cost, which is why we quote them separately from the fence.
Caring for an iron fence
A good powder-coat finish holds up well, but no coating is permanent. Chips let moisture reach bare metal, so touch up scratches early instead of waiting for rust to show. Wash off dirt and pollen now and then, and keep sprinklers from soaking the base of the fence every day.
Iron, wood or chain link?
| Iron | Best for curb appeal and open views. Higher cost, low upkeep. |
| Wood | Best for privacy. See our wood fence installation page. |
| Chain link | Best for budget and function. See chain link fence installation. |
Iron often shows up next to gates, so if you want a matching entry, look at our driveway gate installation page too. Ornamental fencing is popular where lots are larger and HOA neighborhoods set a standard, such as Keller, Southlake and Westlake, and we install in all three.
