Your front entry or back on the patio can become much more comfortable by just adding a braided rug. If your have rustic garden decor you can pick country colors. If you have a more formal setting then you can choose a solid color to accent without overwhelming the space.  Manufacturers have come along way and now have introduced area rugs for the out doors. You can now add an area rug under your garden bench or outdoor furniture. These rugs are easy to maintain by just hosing them with the garden hose.  

Now you can coordinate your chair cushions and rugs to make a beautiful, comfortable seating area for your family and guests during the summertime barbecues. A Rustic Garden carries country braided examples that will cozy up your living space.

Planning a Garden Enclosure

Our vintage style rod  iron fencing that has no finish on it so it will rust just like the historical fencing you might see around century old homes.  The bars are solid steel not hollow tubing so it would take more than a lifetime before you could ever see any noticeable weaknesses so your investment will last. 

We have garden fencing that has been in front of our business for about 15 years and it is a bit darker colored but basically is still as strong as it was when we installed it.  The wrought iron fencing that we would be shipping to our customers today is just a few months old so it is still a rusty orange color.  At this stage the rust does come off on your hand if you rubbed it.  After it is a few years old it will darken and look like an old iron fence, which is what most of our customers are looking for. 

If you would like to send us a diagram or drawing of your fence project we can figure a quote.  We are using a lot more of our steel posts these days which add more stability at the ends and around the gateways.  Feel free to email or call us toll free with any other questions or concerns.

Great Fencing That Works for Everyone

Our solid steel fencing is what we sell the most of because it is very easy to work with. Many applications will not require any posts. Each section of fence has 4 stakes that extend down into the soil so the fencing will stake itself. After placing the first section in place you can hammer the stakes into the soil with a board on the top of the finial to cushion the blow. The next section will interlock or connect  then you work your way down your row of fencing. Wrought iron fencing is a great product and will last for generations.

If you would like to take some measurements of your fencing needs we can figure an exact quote. We will just need to know the length of each side and location of any gates. A drawing or diagram can be helpful as well. We can make several custom cut and sizes so we should be able to fit our sections to your fencing project.
