Fence Construction
There are several methods of installation for an aluminum fence. Construction details not obvious on casual observation can make a big difference in both the appearance and structural integrity of the fence over time.
At Streamline Fence of North Carolina, Inc., we are committed to providing you with fencing that will meet your needs for safety, structural integrity, and an attractive appearance. A fence represents a significant investment in your property and should provide value for years to come.
Our fences are built with the following construction features for added value:
- Concrete Post Footings: All of our fence posts are set in concrete 18" to 24" deep, with wet mixed concrete (not a dry mix), to ensure stability for an extended life.
- Anodized Aluminum Components: To guarantee against corrosion, we select only the highest grade aluminum products for every component of our fence:
- Posts
- Rails
- Pickets
- Fasteners
- Gates: All of our gate frames are designed with a welded U-frame to ensure against sagging and realignment. In addition, we install heavy-walled gate posts for extra stability.
- Reinforced Rails: The rails on our fence panels have been constructed with a high strength rib at the top. This allows for an additional 300 pounds of downward force on the rails, further increasing its structural integrity.
- Premium Gate Hardware: Our gate hinges and latches are fabricated from heavy stainless steel spring closures and are powder coated for resistance to corrosion.
- Installation Techniques: To ensure the highest quality appearance and strength, Streamline Aluminum Fence, Inc., demands only the highest installation standards, including, but not limited to:
- Alignment of all posts and rails
- Each post set in concrete and plumb
- Gates set and adjusted properly
- All fasteners securely set
* In addition for meeting your needs for safety, security, and appearance, we know that every fence we build becomes a testament to the quality of our work. At Streamline Fence of North Carolina, Inc. we are committed to doing it right the first time.
