Wrought Iron Fencing

Wrought Iron Fencing

Ornamental metalwork that stands up to Texas storms.

Summit's wrought iron fences combine security with San Antonio's signature Spanish Colonial styling. We use 14-gauge steel with powder coating tested to last 15+ years in our UV-intensive climate - twice as long as standard paint.

For properties in flood-prone areas like near the River Walk, we elevate base rails 6" above grade to prevent water damage. All scrollwork is TIG-welded (not bolted) to withstand the occasional 50mph winds that sweep through Boerne's hilltops.

Popular in Alamo Heights and Terrell Hills, our designs often incorporate mission-style finials and custom monograms. Military families in Schertz frequently choose our reinforced spear-top designs for security without obstructing views of the surrounding hill country.

Our Process
