OUTDOOR STEEL DECOR
The options you haven’t considered yet
Today, metal panels and posts framing a front yard are most likely aluminum or steel that evokes the look of wrought iron—for far less. Here’s what you need to know to sort through the options
GARDEN BARRIERS OR DEVIDERS
Protect the finish and you can get 20 years or more from hollow steel. A solid-steel, cast-iron, or tubular-aluminum fence can last a lifetime.
UNIQUE GARDEN FEATURES
Your choice of metal depends on the level of detail you want and how much maintenance you can handle. The better the hollow-metal parts hide their fasteners, the more solid they look. All require posts set in concrete. Most metal features today are made of one of these.
outdoor pergolas & furniture
Solid Steel can feature tight curves and scrolls, rope-like twists, and pointed tops that mimic wrought iron. More intricate designs available than with tubular fencing. Also typically stronger and more secure than tubular steel.
landscaping and accessories
Proof that steel can be playful, custom designed, and combine various designs and shapes to suit any well landscaped garden. Foliage and flowers soften the hard lines of metal and steel so the combination is particularly complimentary to outdoor design and decor
Your landscape design plays a big part in the aesthetic value of your yard. However, it’s not just for looks. The function of your design also determines what type of style and steel you need. To make sure you get the right design goals met for your yard or garden, be clear about the purpose of your choice.
