Can I match a specific color?
We offer ornamental fencing in several popular colors. Each
powder-coat finish has been specifically formulated for durability, with
ultra-violet inhibitors to withstand the elements. It's possible to
specially formulate a powder to coat your ornamental fence, but this
option may prove to be cost prohibitive on smaller projects.

Can I install your ornamental products myself?
Generally, our ornamental products are shipped unassembled to save
freight. The fencing contractor assembles the product, then installs the
finished panels on your project. Each fencing contractor has the
necessary equipment and experience to assemble and install the
ornamental fencing to our specifications. While a consumer could do
this, we strongly recommend that you rely on the expertise of a skilled
fence installer. |

Will your ornamental fencing meet local pool
codes?
We have many products that will meet pool codes. However, pool
codes vary and you should check your local regulations and codes prior
to ordering or installing any fence. Your local fencing contractor can
check the codes in your area and offer a variety of products to meet
your needs. |

Are pointed pickets safe around children?
The classic look of a spear picket has been a traditional design for
ornamental picket fencing. While we offer these styles, you should take
care to ensure they are correctly installed and children are warned of
the dangers that exist. To avoid injuries, we recommend that fences less
than 6' tall not use these pickets. |

There are quite a few ornamental fences, and they
all tout their own types of picket attachment. What's the best method?
Our special ornamental fencing products each use a different method for
attaching the pickets. Use of each particular method was engineered into
the design and performance characteristics for the product. One thing
they all have in common is that they are not welded. Welding steel burns
off any protective coating, and subject the panel to red rust. Whether
rivets, retaining rods, or self-tapping screws are used, you can be
assured of a fastener that was designed to offer ornamental fencing with
the durability and security you desire. |

Is your aluminum fencing, Echelon Plus™, strong
enough for use around my home?
Yes. It was designed to combine an attractive, durable appearance with
virtually no maintenance for the residential homeowner. Special aluminum
alloys were used to provide the strength needed to protect the safety
and welfare of your family.

Should I be concerned about the gates for my
ornamental fencing?
Definitely. Your gate is the only moving part of your fence, therefore,
it's subject to the most abuse. We've designed each gate to withstand
punishment from pedestrians, pets or vehicles. When installed with our
specially designed gate hardware, each of our gates is engineered for
years of virtually maintenance-free use, and warranted against defects
in materials and workmanship. |

My property isn't flat and slopes up and down.
Will your ornamental fencing leave big gaps under each panel?
No. Grade changes are usually handled in one of two ways. One attractive
option is to stair-step each panel. A second option is to rack or bias
the panels, allowing the fence to follow the contour of the ground.
Certain styles and systems are more capable of following ground
contours, and should be considered for conditions with significant
slope. |

Can I put a gate operator on my ornamental fence?
Yes. You can add a gate operator to any of our ornamental gates. Whether
you have a swing or cantilever gate, we have a gate operator
that will provide the ease of use and safety needed in your application.
We also can deliver all the access controls to supply the security
features you require. |
