Recycling is a preferred method for disposing of wrought iron due to its sustainability and economic benefits. First, confirm that the fence is indeed made of wrought iron, which is highly recyclable. Modern items labeled as “wrought iron” are often made of mild steel and should be processed accordingly.
Corner guards can come in various sizes, depending on the homeowner’s preference, for example. They may prefer shorter corner guards as a way of protecting just a small portion of a wall corner. On the other hand, they can also make use of an aluminum corner guard with thicker dimensions to retain the quality of the wall material used.
Additionally, aluminium is highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring longevity and durability, even in harsh environmental conditions. This makes it an excellent choice for windows and doors that are constantly exposed to the elements. Aluminium extrusion profiles are also low-maintenance, requiring minimal upkeep and eliminating the need for frequent painting or staining.
Also known as Hardcoat, it is relatively thick and denser than both chromic and sulfuric acid anodize.
Ultimately, you get what you pay for. If you’re on a tight budget and are forced to settle for less, so be it. But just know that wrought iron fences are worth their weight in gold (and they’re pretty heavy, so that’s saying something!).
