Should you buy iron or aluminum fence for your project and what is the difference?
You can certainly use our experience as a testimonial as far as we’re concerned; your service was always quick, helpful and friendly. The youtube videos and the printed info was all helpful, and the product itself is really pretty splendid. The installers liked working with it, and it only took the two of them about a day and a half to do the whole job; they are, admittedly, very hard workers! The house (built in 1888) is right on the campus so that lots of people see it every day, and there has been nothing but enthusiastic praise, and lots of it, for the impact the fence has had on College Avenue. I’m so glad there is a place like yours that provides a product that can be confidently used to help restore historic neighborhoods in this way.

It’s no coincidence that many historical and high-end properties have wrought iron fences or gates. The timeless beauty and strength of wrought iron makes it a winning choice on both fronts. For strength, security and longevity, there is no better fence than iron.
In regards to strength, iron is going to take much more abuse than other fence materials before bending or breaking. An iron fence will also outlast anything made of wood, vinyl or composite.
The main benefits of an aluminum fence or gate are that they are lightweight, durable and virtually maintenance free. Unlike steel and iron that can rust if its protective powder coat is compromised, aluminum will not corrode further when exposed.
Aluminum fence panels are also more versatile since they can “rack” to follow yard grades. This eliminates the “stepping” look many fence types require and gives a continuous line that follows your yard’s contours.
Aluminum as a metal is very strong, but also lightweight. An aluminum fence will also outlast anything made of wood, vinyl or composite.
We offer our Stronghold Iron and Infinity Aluminum products in two grades to provide options on profile and strength within each style.
Traditional (standard-duty) grade is the smaller of both profiles with a 1/2” (iron) or 5/8” (aluminum) picket with a 4in tall finial tip on top. Our Traditional grade profile more closely represents pieces made 100 years ago with its smaller features. In terms of appearance, we recommend the Traditional grade when you want the fence or gate to blend in as part of the landscaping and not be a main focal point.
Our Signature (heavy-duty) grade is the larger of both profiles with a ¾” square picket and 6in tall finial tip on top for both Stronghold Iron and Infinity Aluminum. Our Signature grade is the more heavy-duty option as its larger profile and thicker components are stronger than its Traditional grade counterpart. In terms of appearance, we recommend the Signature grade when you want the product to stand out as a main element in your landscape.
This is largely a matter of preference and budget. We typically recommend taking the following into consideration:
There is no set rule on which grade to utilize. Discuss where you will be installing the fence or gate with your Iron Fence Shop Sales salesperson and they can help suggest which grade would work best for you.
