Iron Gates Boston, MA
As stated previously, a metal gate can be made from multiple metal materials.
Iron gates and iron fences go hand in hand. They aren't always coupled together but when they are, it's noticeable. A tall wrought iron fence and gate to match sends its own message. With our company, your iron gates can send whatever you want them to because we provide custom iron works in Boston, MA and surrounding areas. As an iron works and metal fabrication company, we are able to make custom structures out of many types of metal.
Aluminum is the most affordable but it is also the least robust structure you can make a metal fence from. This doesn't mean it isn't still a very strong material, its just that aluminum gates tend to not be single welded structures and are actually assembled piece by piece which makes the structure as a whole more forgiving.
Steel is an alloy metal; a combination of iron and carbon. This combination is what makes steel the strongest metal you can make your metal gate from.
The benefit of wrought iron is that it is pure iron and therefore can be heated and manipulated into more intricate designs easier than steel or cast iron.
Cast iron is pure iron that instead of being worked into a custom design, has been melted and poured into a cast or mold. It is then left to cool down and harden in the mold. It comes out with precise specifications but it is not as tempered as a wrought iron gate would be because it was only heated and cooled once instead of over and over again.
Steel, wrought iron and cast iron are fulled welded pieces of construction which make them a stronger overall structure than aluminum. The one thing aluminum does have in its favor over steel and iron is that it's naturally rust resistant. Iron and iron alloys are capable of rusting over a long time of exposure. This is why our iron gates are powder coated with a rust resistant powder coating that will slow down the process of becoming weathered.
