When you want a fence that looks timeless, stands up to daily life, and elevates the character of your property, wrought iron is the gold standard. At Stand Strong Fencing in Holly Springs, NC, we design and build custom iron fences and gates that deliver beauty, strength, and reliable security for homes, pools, and businesses throughout the area.
Why Homeowners in Holly Springs Choose Wrought Iron
- Classic curb appeal: Slim pickets, graceful finials, and clean sightlines complement traditional and modern architecture alike.
- Strength & security: Heavy-duty construction, welded panels, and solid gate hardware create a formidable perimeter without feeling closed in.
- Open view design: Enjoy an unobstructed look at your lawn, pool, wooded backdrop, or street—no “boxed-in” feeling.
- Low visual maintenance: Powder-coated finishes resist chipping and fading, so your fence looks refined season after season.
- Versatile applications: Front yards, pool enclosures, gardens, patios, driveways, and commercial storefronts.
Built for the Triangle’s Climate
Holly Springs sees humid summers, occasional coastal winds, and cool, damp winters. Your iron fence needs to handle all three. Our recommended specifications include:
- Powder-coated or e-coated finishes for long-term corrosion resistance
- Fully welded panels and gates at high-stress points
- Thoughtful drainage and gap design to discourage water intrusion
- Professional footings and post setting for stable performance on North Carolina clay soils
Custom Design Options
Every property is different. We tailor your fence to match your style, HOA guidelines, and functional needs.
Profiles & Picket Styles
- Flat-Top: Streamlined and contemporary
- Spear-Top: Traditional security aesthetic with optional safety-crimped tips
- Pressed-Ring or Quad-Ring Accents: Adds architectural interest between rails
- Alternating Heights or Arched Sections: Great for framing entries and garden focal points
Rails & Spacing
- Two-, three-, or four-rail configurations for varying security and pool code goals
- Narrow picket spacing for small-pet containment or decorative emphasis
Posts & Caps
- Standard, ball, pyramid, or decorative finial caps
- Heavier wall posts at gate locations for long-term alignment
Color & Finish
- Classic black is the neighborhood favorite, with bronze, charcoal, or matte options available to harmonize with trim, gutters, or windows.
Gates & Entry Solutions
A beautiful fence deserves a beautiful (and reliable) gate. We build:
- Pedestrian gates with self-closing hinges and magnetic latches
- Double-drive gates for vehicles, trailers, and lawn equipment
- Arched, scalloped, or framed-top designs to create a distinguished entry
- Smart access options (keypads, coded latches, and closer upgrades)
- Heavy-duty posts, hinges, and latch plates sized to the weight and width of your gate
Pool & Patio Enclosures
If you’re enclosing a pool or spa, safety and code compliance are top priorities. We’ll guide you on:
- Gate swing and self-closing hardware
- Latch height and placement
- Picket spacing and climb-resistance
- Clearances at grade for reliable function over time
(Requirements can vary by jurisdiction and HOA; we’ll help you match your design to the rules that apply to your property.)
Our Process
- On-Site Consultation & Measurement
We walk your property, learn your goals, confirm utilities, and note slopes, trees, and hardscapes. - Design & Proposal
You’ll receive a clear, itemized scope with drawings or layout notes, style selections, hardware, and finish. - HOA & Permitting Guidance
We provide the specs and visuals you’ll need for approvals and coordinate any required permits. - Professional Installation
Posts are set with proper depth and concrete, panels are leveled and aligned, and gates are hung and tested. - Final Walkthrough
We review the work with you, fine-tune gate tension and latches, and share care tips to keep everything running smoothly.
Pricing & What Affects Cost
- Linear footage & layout complexity (corners, turns, step-downs on slopes)
- Height & style (flat-top vs. spear-top, rings, decorative accents)
- Gates & hardware (number, width, and automation options)
- Site conditions (rocky soil, roots, tight access, removal of existing fencing)
We provide clear, line-by-line estimates so you know exactly where your investment goes.
Care & Maintenance
Wrought iron is engineered to work hard with minimal fuss. A few easy habits keep it at its best:
- Seasonal rinse-downs to remove pollen and dust
- Quick spot checks for chips or scratches—touch up as needed
- Gate tune-ups (hinge tension and latch alignment) if you notice changes after heavy weather or soil settling
Wrought Iron vs. Other Fence Types
- Wrought Iron vs. Wood: Iron offers longer service life, lower routine maintenance, and an open view. Wood delivers privacy but needs more frequent upkeep.
- Wrought Iron vs. Vinyl: Vinyl is low-maintenance and great for privacy; iron is stronger for security and provides a higher-end look with visibility.
- Wrought Iron vs. Aluminum: Aluminum is lighter and very corrosion-resistant; wrought iron feels more substantial and can handle greater impact loads, with a “heirloom” presence many homeowners prefer.
Perfect Fits for Holly Springs Neighborhoods
We frequently design iron fencing that complements the character of communities like 12 Oaks, Sunset Ridge, Holly Glen, Honeycutt Farm, Braxton Village, and Arbor Creek. Whether you’re framing a front garden, enclosing a side yard, or securing a pool, we’ll align the design with neighborhood aesthetics and typical HOA expectations.
Commercial Wrought Iron Solutions
For storefronts, offices, and community amenities, iron delivers a professional, secure perimeter without obscuring visibility. Options include:
- Perimeter and courtyard fencing
- Dumpster and service-area enclosures
- Pedestrian and vehicle access control gates
- Decorative railings for steps, ramps, and patios
Frequently Asked Questions
How tall should my wrought iron fence be?
Most front yards use 48–54 inches for proportion and visibility. Side and rear yards often range from 54–60 inches. Pool enclosures commonly require a specific minimum height; we’ll size your design accordingly.
Will an iron fence work on sloped yards?
Yes. We can rack panels to follow grade smoothly, or step sections for a crisp, terraced look. We’ll recommend the approach that best fits your slope and style.
Is wrought iron safe for pets?
With tighter picket spacing and strategic layout near grade, wrought iron can be a secure solution for many dogs. For very small pets, we can adjust spacing or add a discreet bottom barrier panel.
What if my HOA has strict rules?
We’ll help interpret style, height, and color guidelines and provide drawings and specs that meet common HOA requirements in Holly Springs communities.
How long does installation take?
Most residential projects install in a matter of days once materials are ready. Larger or more complex builds, multiple gates, or challenging terrain may add time—your proposal will include a realistic schedule.
