When a space needs modern design paired with secure measures, architectural metal fencing is a unique way to do just that. This type of modern design offers a blend of harmonious and customized details with aesthetic appeal and added security for any type of perimeter.
At Metalco, we have pioneered the integration of artistry into sturdy and reliable metal fencing. The concept has transformed traditional and boring barriers into something far more captivating thanks to design elements. And these solutions can be used in many different spaces as a whole. In this guide, we will take a closer look at architectural metal fencing and some of the best uses that you might find for the materials.
Architectural Metal Fencing Explained
This is no standard fence design. The name itself tells you that it’s something more. It’s incredibly unique and 100% customized to any branding or design preferences the client may have. Architectural metal fencing is certainly a modern solution, and one that offers the best of security, strength, and aesthetic appeal.
While traditional fencing solutions, even those from MFR Corp, are designed primarily for functionality, this type of fencing solution is designed to offer that functionality while also providing a visually striking finish. Why not get the best of both worlds in the places that it fits?
These metal fences incorporate custom patterns, artistic designs, and various finishes that will enhance the look of any property while also serving as a strong and long-lasting barrier for that same property. We craft these fences using quality materials like steel, aluminum, and more. This means they can provide you with strength, weather and corrosion resistance, and defense against physical impact, too.
No matter your property, you can work closely with our skilled design teams to create a range of customizable or branded options that perfectly meet your unique property needs.
Now, let’s look at some common application options. Keep in mind this is not an all-inclusive overview, but it gives some great ideas for potential use.
Commercial and Public Spaces
Urban environments are hustling and bustling, but they also need protective barriers that can make a statement. Think about areas like parks, commercial properties in busy areas, and more. From business properties to municipal properties, a fence of this nature will delineate space, guide foot traffic, and provide an appealing visual for those public areas. It’s less intimidating, but still offers the necessary security and protection for these spaces.
Architectural metal doesn’t always have to be used for fencing. We can help you design structures, signs, and more using these concepts.
Educational Institutions
Colleges, schools, universities, and every education space has the responsibility to protect staff and students. However, they also typically want to provide a space that looks nice and caters to the needs of the property.
Fencing solutions on education property must provide safety for everyone on that property. But most of these locations prefer not to create a space that is intimidating or makes people feel like they are imprisoned inside those barriers. That’s where architectural fencing comes in. It creates that safety and protective barrier, but it looks nice and doesn’t have an imprisoning effect.
The fencing will secure the perimeter without feeling overly restrictive to the space, offering airflow and visibility on both sides. It fosters a welcoming and open atmosphere while still protecting. These designs can be customized to various heights and styles that fit the institution’s needs and preferences. It will complement the campus when complete.
Parks and Recreational Areas
Much like educational facilities, parks and recreational areas want to feel an element of protection without feeling imprisoned in the space. When the fence balances safety with aesthetics in the natural surroundings, it has an entirely different effect.
Think of the ability to add artistic elements that reflect the fenced environment. A park might have flowers or even kids playing in the design. Recreational areas might add sports elements, families, or something completely unique. The ability to create custom designs with Metalco gives you the upper hand when it comes to creating the right fence for each scenario.
Residential Applications
Home can benefit from these designs too. Just like anywhere else, we want to feel safe and protected at home. However, things like wooden privacy fences or chain link fences (the most common options at homes) offer limited protection, and they are often bland or unwelcoming as well.
At a residential space, you can create the perfect compilation that provides a secure perimeter while having a visually appealing design that feels warm and homey. Think of what it does for the curb appeal!
Residential neighborhoods and gated communities can also benefit from these options, providing style and perimeter protection in a whole different way than traditional gating or fencing systems. Plus, these offer rigidity and strength paired with elegance, bringing a sleek design to the property boundaries.
Custom Artistic Installation
While this guide focuses primarily on fencing solutions, architectural metal designs can offer so much more. In our gallery, you can find various fencing structures, railings, signs, statues, and even benches made with this masterpiece approach. Our engineers and designers can work closely with you to develop and custom artistic installations that will meet your needs effectively.
The idea behind the custom designs is to captivate people, tell a story, reflect identity, and contribute to safety and protection, too. With our expert designs and solutions, you can specialty builds that simply are not available from commercial fencing providers out there.
