Cast iron fences are also more affordable. Some ornate cast iron fences may have accents such as arches, gates, or seats in addition to their already stunning look. The purpose of these additions is to enhance further the aesthetic appeal of the area that surrounds the fence.
- In some cultures, decorative spears were also used as a form of currency or wealth. In societies where metal was scarce, spears made from materials such as wood, bone, or stone were highly valued and could be exchanged for goods or services. The more elaborate the decoration on the spear, the higher its value and prestige.
Repaint Your Fence
Before you start painting, it might be a good idea to add a primer to your fence. Make sure you’re buying a primer that’s specifically made for metal, as these can be purchased with rust inhibiting qualities. Once you’ve applied your primer, choose your paint colour and use a small paint brush to cover all areas of your fence with a thin coat of paint. Allow the paint to dry fully before applying a second coat. We recommend a paint such as hammerite to re-coat paintwork when necessary.Beyond their visual appeal, ornamental cast iron panels offer several practical benefits. They are robust and withstand the test of time, making them ideal for outdoor applications. Unlike materials such as wood or vinyl, cast iron is impervious to rot, pests, and the wear and tear of the elements. This longevity makes it a wise investment for homeowners and developers.
