“Wrought iron is forged and hammered, bent and shaped while hot”, describes Mac McCarthy of Welded Sculptures by Mac.

Aluminium Extrusion Profiles and Their Applications in the Windows and Doors Segment

In the case of residential construction, so-called ‘warm’ aluminium profiles are becoming increasingly popular. This means that the profile construction consists of two metal sections, joined by a thermal plastic insert, such as glass fibre-reinforced polyamide. Such a profile generally has three or four chambers, with additional polymer foam filling in the middle chamber.

When it comes to choosing the perfect fencing for your property, there are a lot of materials to choose from and a lot of options to weigh. How much privacy do you want? What aesthetic are you going for? What sort of fence will simultaneously protect your property while enhancing the landscape and highlighting its beauty?

Here are some more ideas on what you can do with your old wrought iron fences:

2. Clean the Track Before adjusting the rollers, it’s essential to clean the track thoroughly. Use a vacuum cleaner or a soft brush to remove dirt, dust, and debris. This will help the rollers slide smoothly across the track.

Once the door is removed, inspect the rollers. Look for signs of wear and tear, such as cracks, warping, or broken parts. If the rollers appear damaged, they will need to be replaced. If they are simply dirty or misaligned, a good cleaning or adjustment may suffice.

With pickets spaced about 4 inches apart along the fence panel, welds affix each one to both the top and bottom railings, keeping everything sturdy and completing the unit. A standard panel usually contains about 20 pickets apiece for an overall length of 8 feet. The full height of a finished iron safety fence panel mostly tops out at 5 feet, though 4-foot panels aren’t uncommon either. Local building codes tend to dictate the height required, so your experience may vary. Finally, at either end of a fence panel is a post.

Tilt-and-turn windows won’t be for everyone. The more complex gearing means window frames are thicker than side-hung or top-hung versions. The main advantage of tilt-and-turn is that they come in significantly larger sizes. In fact, it’s possible to get tilt-and-turn windows that are virtually the size of a door. As a result, they’re ideal for windows leading to a flat roof or a Juliet balcony.
