When it comes to fencing, both aluminum and steel stand out for their impressive durability, especially when compared to traditional options like wood or chain link. But what advantages does steel fencing have?

Aluminum and steel are designed to endure harsh conditions. Aluminum, in particular, is resistant to the elements and won’t rust or corrode, making it a low-maintenance option. Steel, while capable of rusting, becomes nearly maintenance-free when coated with a protective layer—such as the treatment applied to Vantage’s ornamental steel fencing.

If security is a concern, or if you have active kids or pets, a steel fence might be a better choice. Although aluminum is strong, steel fences are made through a welded construction process, further reinforcing their already sturdy build.

For areas requiring extra protection, choosing a durable material like steel for your fencing material is highly recommended.
