Steel fences come in many shapes and forms that suit both heritage homes and the modern.

Common types of steel fences include:

• Colourbond steel fences, available in 14 colours and are as beautiful as they are practical;
• Tubular steel fences, that consist of vertical tubes that are strengthened by passing them through the top and bottom rails of the fence. This is a an easy to install and low-cost choice in steel fencing;
• Steel pickets fences, that make the ideal substitute for traditional timber pickets;
• Louvres steel fences, which provide as much privacy as a board fence due to boards that are mounted at an angle to the face of the fence;
• Large panel steel fences, which provide greater protection against vandalism than other welded wire mesh, and give a clean architectural look.

Benefits of steel fencing include:

• They are durable and provide a strong barrier;
• They are available in a wide range of designs and colours (as they are coated powder for protection);
• They are low maintenance.

Steele fences do have a tendency to scratch and rust more easily. Ensure you check the fence regularly to prevent an expensive problem developing at a later date.
