Fencing in Florida: The benefits of aluminum for your residential fence

Aluminum fencing has become more popular over the years thanks to advancing technology in the fencing industry. Where once you would only see expensive wrought iron or wooden fencing for residential areas, now aluminum is becoming our clients’ go-to for affordable and distinguished fencing options. However, choosing a fencing material is one of the most important steps in installing a new fence. You should understand both the pros and cons of aluminum before investing.

The Benefits of Aluminum Fencing for Residential Areas

1. Aluminum is more affordable than wrought iron. When most people think of metal fencing, they think of wrought iron. However, aluminum is quickly replacing this expensive option not only for its comparable strength but because of its lower price tag. Clients who were once considering wrought iron typically choose aluminum specifically for this reason.
2. Aluminum won’t rust over time. Unlike iron fencing, aluminum won’t rust over time. This is especially important for Florida homeowners that need fencing which will last through the rainy season. 
3. It’s fully customizable. FloriFence offers fully-customizable aluminum fencing options for our residential clients. You can choose from a variety of colors, designs, and fence toppers to make your fencing stand out from the crowd.
4. Powder coating is available with FloriFence. Among our customizable options, powder coating for aluminum is one of our most popular. This gives an even, striking appearance that won’t fade over time. Contact us to learn about our powder coating options for aluminum.

While aluminum fencing is one of our most attractive options, it is not the choice for homeowners looking for privacy. Like wrought iron fencing, aluminum fencing is not solid and therefore will not completely block the view from the street. On the other hand, it is the ideal solution for residents who want fencing only for decorative purposes, rather than for complete privacy.
