"Yolex Richardson did a very good job removing my running board on my pickup truck. The brackets on the running board were welded to the frame of the truck. He cut the metal off between the frame and running board so the running board could be removed. It was an eyesore with rust and my truck is almost mint condition. So happy to see it off and as I said he did a great job removing it. Also Yolex is a very nice guy with great personality and we got along very well. Highly recommend him for other jobs and I will surely recommend him if others have problems."

"After having to postpone my original installation appointment time (due to a delay caused by a previous job and impending nightfall), I was unsure of what level of professionalism to expect of Iron Kingdom; however, the next day, the workers that arrived to install my security bars allayed me of those concerns. They were punctual, professional, and worked in the rain to get the job done. They were thorough and were able to answer all questions and concerns I had regarding the work. Not only was I happy with the job they did on my windows, I was also very pleased with their repair of my security door. I am very pleased with the results."

Wrought Iron questions, answered by experts

A horizontal fence is typically more expensive to build than a vertical fence, often costing between 10% and 20% more. The higher cost is due to the need for a higher grade of lumber and more posts to prevent the boards from sagging, which increases both material and labor expenses. Despite the higher price, horizontal fences tend to be more durable and offer a more distinct, modern look compared to the more common vertical picket style. However, they may not be the best option for privacy, as there can be slight gaps between the horizontal rails.

The most durable metal for a fence is wrought iron. With proper care, a wrought iron fence can last for centuries. This means regular resealing to stave off rust and corrosion, especially in coastal climates with salty sea air. In these environments, chain link and corrugated fencing tend to stand up better to the elements with fewer maintenance needs.

You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing. 

Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.

The maximum recommended slope on which you can build a racked or stepped fence is 45 degrees. After that, construction becomes quite tricky and may require the use of retaining walls or terraces to make the fenced area flatter.

While many fence companies and fence material retailers refer to their metal fencing as wrought iron fencing, most of it is actually ornamental wrought iron fence. This means that the fence is made to look like traditional wrought iron but is actually made out of either steel or aluminum. Old wrought iron fences typically found at estate sales or on older properties are much heavier and much more prone to rust than the ornamental wrought iron that newer homes and fences use.
