Wrought Iron

Wrought iron is the premier heavy duty option for most metalwork solutions and is the typical choice for high security areas due to the rigidity and weight of the medium. Wrought iron pieces can also be highly customizable, allowing for creative and decorative designs, which makes wrought iron a very prevalent type of medium in all types of applications. While powder coating provides a much longer lasting finish, the painted option will require some maintenance over the years.
