Aluminum Fences are Virtually Maintenance Free

Aluminum fencing can be expensive, but makes up for the investment with a number of attributes that can’t be found in other materials. One of the primary benefits is that its an almost maintenance free solution that’s stylish and highly durable.

Aluminum is a preferred fencing material in South Florida. It has the durability to withstand the ravages of hurricane winds due to the spaces between the pickets. It’s equally appropriate for residential locations, commercial enterprises and even small properties where elegance and aesthetic value is important.

Corrosion

One of the problems that impacts fencing in South Florida is corrosion due to the high humidity levels, frequent rain, and salt water. That’s not a problem with aluminum fencing. It doesn’t rust, rot or corrode. Aluminum doesn’t require painting, staining, or other types of treatments. The ability to withstand water and humidity means stains and dust can be removed by washing it down with warm water and any type of gentle dish washing soap.

Insects

Insects, especially termites, can cause considerable damage to wood fences and other types of insects can take up residence in other materials if there’s even the least bit of a crack where they can enter. Aluminum fencing doesn’t attract insects. There’s no need to worry about insects invading the fencing or adjacent homes and outbuildings.

Environmentally Friendly

The metal is 100 percent recyclable and one of the easiest of all metals to recycle. In addition, the carbon footprint to manufacture aluminum has been significantly reduced over the past 30 years.

Other Attributes

Aluminum fences have other benefits. The material can be fashioned into shapes that rival the finest wrought iron, but at much less cost. It’s available in multiple colors. It can be adapted to complement prevailing styles in a neighborhood and customized into virtually any desired decorative design.

Long-Lasting and Easy Maintenance SimTek® Fencing

Fencing beautifies and adds value to properties, but the myriad of choices can leave a homeowner’s head reeling. The good news is that there’s a single fencing choice for people in South Florida that combines beauty, durability and no maintenance requirements. That fencing is SimTek®.

Aesthetics

Ideal for any environment, the fencing is a wonder of modern technology. SimTek® is available in a myriad of styles, colors and textures. A unique manufacturing process creates fencing that emulates the appearance of real wood or stone.

Cost Effective

The fencing’s durability and longevity make it one of the most cost-effective purchases many people will ever make for their home. The fencing provides a variety of advantages all in a single fencing option.

Maintenance

SimTek® typically requires no maintenance to keep it looking like new. Deposits of calcium, moss and algae may stick to the surface of a SimTek® fence, but it’s easily removed with a pressure washer.

Graffiti resistant, SimTek® has been tested with multiple types of paint, all of which can be removed with a pressure washer. For the most resistant of paints, individuals can simply spray the graffiti with a little carburetor cleaner, leave for 2 minutes to allow the paint to soften, then power wash it off.

Heat and Wind

A SimTek® fence isn’t affected by water or salt spray, making it ideal for installation on coastal properties. It’s also an excellent sound barrier that blocks 98 percent of outside noise. Conversely, it impedes a majority of the sounds that could disturb neighbors.

The fencing provides superior performance in hot temperatures of up to 140 degrees. Treated with UV-12 inhibitors, it won’t fade or warp. It’s also able to withstand winds of 110 mph and gusts of up to 130 mph, making it particularly beneficial for hurricane-prone areas.

Impact Resistant

The fence is tough and won’t be significantly affected by impacts by objects such as golf balls, rocks and baseballs. Even repeated impacts by a weed eater won’t phase the fencing.

Insects and Soil

SimTek® fencing is unattractive to termites and other insect pests that damage materials. An added bonus is that the fencing isn’t impacted by acidic or alkaline soils that hasten the deterioration of many other fencing options.

Why we Love PVC Fencing

With a myriad of fencing materials from which to choose, it can be difficult to make a definitive selection. One of the options worth considering for a multiple range of needs is PVC fencing. It’s a type of vinyl with an extensive number of benefits and advantages.

Color, Style, Texture

PVC fencing is available in multiple hues to complement home colors. The fences are offered in lattice, picket, privacy, and post-and-rail styles, just to name a few. It can be customized in numerous ways to conform to local regulations or to create a truly individualized look. PVC fencing is available in textures that emulate natural wood and stucco.

Low Maintenance

If you want a fence that’s virtually maintenance free, PVC fits the bill. It won’t split, crack, rot, peel, or warp. It’s manufactured with UV inhibitors to prevent it from yellowing, fading or becoming brittle, even in our sun-soaked South Florida climate. You won’t have to spend your time painting or staining PVC fencing.

PVC fencing is unappealing to insects, so you won’t need to apply insecticides and there’s no need for preservatives to prevent rot. If algae, mold or mildew develops, it’s easy to clean with a minimum of effort.

Durable

Five times stronger than wood, PVC is highly durable and able to withstand strong winds and the material is resistant to saltwater. It’s earned the Dade County Product Approval Certification.

Versatility

The fencing can be designed with a variety of decorative tops and can be installed vertically or horizontally. It’s available in multiple heights. There’s an option whether you’re seeking fencing for privacy, security or safety.

Eco-friendly

PVC fencing is non-toxic and offers no danger to children or pets, nor does it compromise or pollute air or water quality. When the fence eventually comes to the end of its lifespan, it’s recyclable. It will be broken down to become part of another product. That means less material that will find its way into landfills. PVC fencing is one of the greenest materials available and requires very little resources or energy to produce.
