Our Wrought Iron Fence
In 1994 with the pending birth of our daughter approaching, we realized that we needed some way to keep a small child from venturing into the street in front of our house. The fence shown here was the result of our desire to keep with the Victorian theme of our home and create something of our own within our budget. Yes, we fabricated this period style wrought iron fence on our own. We bought the raw steel from a local supplier and ordered the cast parts from a catalog. It was quite a challenge but it saved over 50% of the cost per foot of either original antique fencing or new period style construction.
