➜ Ornamental Metal Fencing
ORNAMENTAL METAL FENCING IN Decatur, GA.
Some boundaries should be seen through, not hidden behind. Lindley's Fencing installs ornamental aluminum and steel fencing across Decatur, GA, giving properties a crisp, architectural edge that keeps the view and asks almost nothing of you afterward.
STRUCTURE WITHOUT LOSING THE VIEW.
Ornamental metal solves a problem wood cannot. It defines the property, satisfies pool barrier requirements, and stands up to weather for decades, while still letting you see the garden, the street, and anyone approaching the house. The slim profile disappears against planting, so the eye reads the landscape rather than the fence.
Powder-coated finishes carry the durability. Applied over aluminum or galvanized steel, they hold color through years of sun and humidity without flaking.

➜ ORNAMENTAL METAL FENCING
A CLEAN LINE THAT ASKS NOTHING OF YOU.
The appeal of this fencing is what it removes from your year. No staining, no sealing, no replacing warped boards, no annual straightening. Panels arrive with the finish already baked on, posts are set in concrete to carry them, and the run then does its job quietly. Occasional washing keeps it looking new, and a chip touched in early is the extent of the upkeep most owners ever perform on it.
FRONT ELEVATIONS HERE DESERVE THE DETAIL.
Homes across Decatur, GA often present their best face to the street, and a heavy fence hides exactly what makes them worth looking at. Ornamental metal frames a front yard without competing with it, and the choice of picket spacing, rail configuration, and finial style lets us tune the character from formal to understated. Around pools it does double duty, meeting barrier requirements while keeping clear sight of the water from the house.
30 YEARS OF SETTING METAL THAT STAYS PLUMB.
Panels are only as good as what holds them. Posts carrying rigid metal have to be dead plumb and properly footed, because unlike timber there is no forgiveness in the material and a lean shows instantly along a straight rail. Installing since 1992 has made that precision routine for our crews, on flat ground and on grade alike. Would you like to see how a run would sit on your property?
WHAT ORNAMENTAL METAL DELIVERS
THE VIEW STAYS YOURS
Slim vertical pickets read almost as a line drawing across a garden. You gain a defined boundary and keep the outlook, the light, and the sense of space that solid fencing takes away.
UPKEEP CLOSE TO NOTHING
No sealing schedule, no rot, no insects, and no boards to replace. An occasional wash and the odd touch-up are all this fencing asks across a service life measured in decades.
STRENGTH IN A SLIM SECTION
Metal delivers rigidity that a comparable timber section cannot approach. Panels resist impact, hold their shape in wind, and stay straight without the bracing a wooden run of the same span would need.
POOL REQUIREMENTS HANDLED CLEANLY
Correct height, no footholds, and self-closing, self-latching gates are built into the specification rather than added afterward. The barrier satisfies code while keeping the water visible from the house.
COLOR THAT STAYS WHERE IT IS PUT
Powder coating bonds to the metal instead of sitting on top like paint, so it resists fading, chalking, and peeling. Black, bronze, and white all hold their tone through Georgia summers.
A PROPERTY THAT LOOKS FINISHED
Straight rails, even picket spacing, and consistent post caps give an immediate impression of order. It is the fencing equivalent of a well-cut edge on a lawn, noticed even when nobody comments.
➜ WHAT WE INSTALL
OUR ORNAMENTAL METAL WORK
Residential and commercial runs in a range of grades, heights, and picket styles, with matching gates and the option of decorative detail wherever you want it.
RUST-FREE
Aluminum Ornamental Fencing
Powder-coated aluminum that will not rust, in residential through commercial grades. The most popular choice here, combining a refined appearance with the lightest maintenance demand of any fencing we install.
HEAVIER GRADE
Ornamental Steel Fencing
Galvanized and coated steel for situations needing more strength than aluminum provides. Noticeably more substantial underfoot and in appearance, and well suited to commercial frontage and high-traffic boundaries.
WATER SAFE
Pool Enclosure Fencing
Barrier fencing meeting the height, spacing, and gate requirements pool codes set, installed so the enclosure looks like a design decision rather than a compliance exercise bolted around the water.
FINE WORK
Decorative Finials and Scrollwork
Spear tops, rings, scrolls, and cast detail added where a run deserves more character. Ornament is placed deliberately, usually at gates and frontage, rather than scattered across every panel.
ENTRY MADE
Ornamental Gates
Matching pedestrian and drive gates on reinforced posts, hung with adjustable hinges and latches suited to daily use. Self-closing hardware is fitted wherever a code or a pool requires it.
BUSINESS FRONT
Commercial Ornamental Fencing
Perimeters for offices, medical practices, apartment grounds, and retail sites that need to look professional while still controlling access. Heavier grades and taller sections are specified where the site warrants them.
➜ THE WORD ON OUR WORK
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY.
Owners tell us the same thing a year or two on: they have not touched it. That is precisely the point of this material, and it is why so many pool and frontage projects come to us through referrals.
➜ Common Questions
frequently asked questions.
Questions here center on material choice, pool compliance, and how little maintenance is genuinely involved. Here is what we tell people.
What is the difference between aluminum and steel ornamental fencing?
Aluminum will not rust and is lighter, easier to install, and ideal for residential use. Steel is heavier and stronger, better suited to commercial or high-impact settings, and relies on its coating for corrosion protection.
Is powder coating better than paint on a metal fence?
Considerably. Powder coating is applied electrostatically and cured, forming a bonded finish that resists chipping and fading far better than liquid paint, which sits on the surface and eventually peels.
Does ornamental fencing meet pool barrier code?
It is the material most often chosen for exactly that reason. Lindley's Fencing installs pool enclosures across Decatur, GA to the required height, picket spacing, and self-latching gate specification.
Can ornamental fencing be installed on a slope?
Yes. Racked panels pivot at the rails to follow a grade smoothly, and steeper ground can be handled by stepping sections. We confirm which approach suits your slope before ordering the panels.
How much maintenance does an ornamental metal fence need?
Very little. Wash it when pollen or grime builds up, and touch in any deep scratch that reaches bare metal on a steel fence. Aluminum needs even less, since corrosion is not a concern.
Will an ornamental fence keep a dog in the yard?
For most dogs, yes, provided the height and picket spacing suit the animal. Small breeds need narrower spacing, and determined diggers need the same base treatment any fence style would require.
What heights does ornamental fencing come in?
Common residential heights run from 3 to 6 feet, with commercial sections going higher. Pool enclosures have a code-set minimum, and front yard runs are usually capped by local zoning rules.
How long does an ornamental aluminum fence last?
Decades, and often the life of the property. Aluminum does not rot or rust, so the powder coat is what ages. Lindley's Fencing still services aluminum runs installed around Decatur, GA many years ago.
➜ HOW WE WORK
FROM PANEL CHOICE TO PLUMB LINE, HERE IS HOW.
STEP 01
We Establish The Purpose Of The Run
Pool barrier, front boundary, pet containment, or commercial frontage each carry different requirements. Knowing which one you need decides grade, height, and picket spacing before anything else is discussed.
STEP 02
We Show You Styles And Finishes
Picket profiles, rail configurations, finial options, and coating colors all get compared. Samples make the choice straightforward, since these details read very differently in person than in a brochure.
STEP 03
We Verify Code And Boundaries
Pool requirements, zoning heights, and property lines are all checked against your address, and utility locates are arranged. Compliance is confirmed on paper before panels are ordered.
STEP 04
We Set Posts Dead Plumb
Every post is concreted at depth and checked in both directions. Rigid panels show any error immediately, so accuracy here is what separates a crisp line from an obviously wavy one.
STEP 05
We Hang Panels And Gates
Sections are fixed at consistent height, racked where the grade requires it, and gates are hung with adjustable hardware. Self-closing and self-latching mechanisms are set and tested where required.
STEP 06
We Inspect The Line And Clear Up
We sight down the completed run for alignment, check every gate through its full swing, touch in any transit marks, and remove all packaging and offcuts from the property.
