Metal estate railings and gates have long been synonymous with the picturesque landscapes of country parks and rural estates. Traditionally, these railings were crafted from flat bar iron, which, while charming, had its drawbacks. Today, The Fencing Bloke Metal Fencing Suppliers and Installers offer a modern solution that combines traditional aesthetics with contemporary durability.
The Evolution of Estate Fencing
Traditional Challenges
Originally, estate rails and posts were manufactured from flat bar iron. While this material provided a classic look, it was prone to bending under pressure and could be quite heavy. Additionally, painted flat bar iron required regular upkeep to remove flaking paint and apply new coats. This maintenance was not only time-consuming but also costly over the long term.
Modern Solutions
Our modern take on estate railings incorporates a tubular galvanised steel construction. This design is significantly stronger than the traditional flat bar iron, offering enhanced durability without compromising on style. The galvanised (silver) finish is supplied as standard, providing a sleek appearance that requires minimal maintenance.
For those who prefer coloured railings, we offer a premium polyester powder coating service. An elegant shade of black is highly popular among our customers. This coating does not chip or crack and eliminates the need for frequent repainting.
Specifications of Our Estate Fencing
Dimensions and Construction
Our estate fencing panels are designed with precision to ensure both functionality and aesthetic appeal:
- Fence Panel Height: 1.215m above finished ground level
- Fence Panel Width: 2m wide, featuring 3 uprights/posts per panel
- Uprights/Posts: 50 x 25 x 2mm RHS (end posts are drilled with 2 holes for bolting to the next panel)
- Rails: 5 x 19mm diameter CHS
The panels are bolted together using two M8 x 65 coach bolts (804100). If a panel needs reducing in size at the end of a run, a 50 x 50mm SHS end post is required (079801). The cut rails are then fed into the end post with uneven cuts hidden inside the post—no additional fixings required.
Adaptability for Sloping Ground
Please note that our panels cannot be raked; they can only be stepped to accommodate sloping ground. This ensures that your fencing remains level and secure regardless of terrain variations.
Metal Estate Railing Gates – Elegance Meets Functionality
