Another advantage of cast iron fence panels is their versatility. These panels can be used for a variety of purposes, from defining property lines to adding security to a garden or pool area. With the ability to be customized to fit any space, cast iron fence panels are a flexible option for any fencing project.
Incredible Strength To Weight Ratio
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.
Conclusion
Think of the cast iron frying pan you probably have in your kitchen. Unlike a stainless steel saute pan which likely has a handle made of a separate piece that had to be attached to the main body of the pan, your cast iron is all one continuous piece that was formed together in a mold.
