Most gates are made of steel or wrought iron because of their outstanding strength and durability. The main difference between these two metals is that wrought iron is composed entirely of iron, while steel contains an alloy of iron and carbon. The carbon content makes steel doors stronger than wrought iron and can withstand the elements and resist damage. That said, wrought iron is durable, malleable, corrosion resistant, and easier to weld.
Wrought iron was first used in ancient Roman times, and the beautiful wrought iron gates of Westminster Cathedral were erected in the 13th century, showing the design possibilities that existed thousands of years ago. Ironwork is more than just a decorative feature. A quality set of gates will add value to your home, improve security, protect privacy and provide greater peace of mind for homeowners. If you need a metal gate full of character and showcasing detailed metalwork, then ironwork is a good choice. Here are some of the key benefits.
- Very durable
- Excellent rust resistance

- Highly malleable and can be used for many decorative designs
- Adds character and value to your home
