You Want Security Without a Solid Wall
Ornamental fence is the one you'll see from the street every day. Spacing, post alignment and a straight top line matter more here than anywhere.
Metal Fencing Designed Around Your View
Powder-coated finishes with 15-year to lifetime warranties. Posts core-drilled or set in concrete below frost line and racked to follow grade.
2-rail flat-top aluminum
Residential-grade aluminum, 4 or 5 feet, flat or spear top. Never rusts, never needs paint.
3-rail puppy-picket aluminum
Extra rail with tighter picket spacing on the bottom 18 inches. Meets pool code and keeps small dogs in.
Steel with finials & accents
Heavier welded steel panels with finials, rings or scrolls, matched to estate or driveway gates.
Aluminum is right for most homes. Steel is for heavier gates and a more traditional look. Request a free estimate.

What to Ask Before Aluminum Goes In
How much does aluminum fence installation cost?
Residential aluminum runs $45–$75 per linear foot installed; steel $60–$100. A 120-foot front yard with a walk gate is typically $6,000–$9,000.
Aluminum or steel — which is better in Iowa?
Aluminum for most residential jobs: it never rusts and costs less. Steel for heavy gates, commercial and estate looks, as long as it's galvanized under the powder coat.
Does it meet pool fence code?
Yes, with our puppy-picket or standard 4-foot panel, a self-closing self-latching gate and the correct latch height. We build to your city's pool barrier ordinance.
Can it follow a sloped yard?
Yes. Rackable panels follow grade up to about 25 degrees without stepping, so the top line stays parallel to the ground.
Workmanship warranty
If a post we set heaves or a gate we hung sags, we come back and fix it. Materials carry the manufacturer's warranty on top.
Why not wait?
Every winter a leaning fence leans more. Lumber and labor don't get cheaper, and the dog isn't getting slower. Build it now and have the yard this season.
Rust and Loose Posts Spoil the Look Fast
Leaning posts pull neighboring panels out of line until whole sections need replacing
Rotted rails and pickets turn a cheap repair into a full rebuild
Shallow-set posts heave more every winter — the fix costs more each year you wait
A failing fence means escaped pets, disputes with neighbors, and a hit to your home's value
