Chatterton Lacework advises buyers of wrought iron components and
wrought iron accessories to inspect carefully to ensure they are getting a durable
product.
When inspecting wrought iron components and accessories, check that the
various components have a robust structure, the welding of the end product is
tidy and, in the case of heritage-style wrought iron, there is symmetry to the
scroll work. Compliance with Australian building code regulations is also
important.
Security elements can be incorporated into wrought iron fencing made
from wrought iron components and wrought iron accessories, even in
heritage style products. For instance, spears can be added on top of the heritage
wrought iron fence for extra security.
Wrought iron fencing can cost money; therefore, it is important to
consider various corrosion treatment options to ensure long-term durability. It
would also help to look at some of the manufacturer’s previous work for product
quality assurance.
