Regardless of whether you’ve had a fence constructed or are researching your options in terms of adding a new fence, you may have heard of terms like spires, pickets, posts and rails. But what about finials, cover flanges and escutcheons? Let us enlighten you! Here is a rundown of some of the main components of a wrought iron fence.
One of the main structural components of a fence are what are called members or rails. These horizontal elements essentially help hold a fence together, and they are an important part of a fence’s overall structure. They are located at the top of a wrought iron fence, they run parallel to the ground and they are where fence panels connect to the posts. Additional horizontal members are often added to create ‘housings’ for decorative elements like internal scrolling.

What truly sets rošty apart is its role in bringing people together. Traditionally, it has been a dish shared among family and friends during gatherings, celebrating togetherness. The process of making rošty is often communal, where family members gather in the kitchen, share stories, and collaborate to create this beloved dish. This communal aspect of cooking ties back to many food traditions—food not only sustains us but also nourishes our relationships.

Wrought iron, derived from the Old English term 'work,' refers to the process of forging iron by hand, shaping it into various forms. The material's malleability allows artisans to create intricate patterns, making each railing panel a unique piece of art. The panels often feature ornate scrolls, floral motifs, or geometric shapes, reflecting the creativity and skill of the craftsmen who shaped them.

In interior design, wrought iron is often used for railings, chandeliers, and furniture pieces. Wrought iron coffee tables, bed frames, and chairs combine durability with artistic flair, making them timeless additions to any home. The contrast of wrought iron against warm wood or vibrant fabrics creates a striking visual appeal.

This one isn’t as exciting or as fun as looking at completed fence project photos, but its probably the most important and overlooked item that can make the difference between being an informed shopper and regretting your purchase.  Cutting corners on component sizes, thicknesses and finishes is a time honored tradition of lower-end companies that try to undercut higher quality pieces with a lower price.  Don’t get me wrong.  Price is important, but if you are saving $20 and getting a piece that is half the thickness, weight and will rust in 3 years; are you really getting a good deal?  Any fence and gate maker worth their salt will have the ability to provide you specifications (specs) on the pieces you are buying.  You can find and download both our abbreviated ‘quick specs’ and our full specs on our specifications page.  Look for something fully versed and thought out like our specs versus some simple bullet points or a short blurb on a web page.
