Properly installed and maintained powder-coated ornamental iron fence is the most permanent residential fence type available. Unlike cedar, iron does not rot, warp, or need replacement every 10–15 years. Unlike vinyl, iron does not fade, crack, or become brittle in UV exposure. The maintenance requirement for iron fencing is modest: inspect annually for coating damage, touch up any chips or scratches promptly to prevent rust, and inspect gate hinges and hardware yearly for adjustment. A quality powder-coated iron fence installed by Griffin Fence should look excellent for 20–30+ years with basic maintenance.
