<H1>What are the different styles of metal railings available?</H1>
When it comes to the metal railing styles available for your commercial property, the choices range from options that prioritise aesthetics to high-security solutions.
Thanks to their natural strength and the variety of designs they come in, metal railings are a popular choice, whether you’re decorating the perimeter of your property with a low fence or putting up a high one to deter intruders.
Here, we’ve rounded up some common types of metal railings and their benefits to help you choose the best one for your requirements.
<H2>Palisade Railings</H2>
One of the most secure metal railing styles, palisade railings feature vertical steel panels with sharpened top edges, which serve as both a robust physical barrier thanks to their superior strength and as a visual deterrent with their intimidating looks.
This typeof metal railing is the preferred choice for high-security commercial environments where it’s paramount to keep valuables in and trespassers out. You can also enhance the finish of palisade railings to make them more resistant to the elements, so they last even longer.

<H2>Welded Mesh railings</H2>
Among the most popular metal railing styles you’ll also see welded mesh railings. Created using – you guessed it – welded steel mesh, these railings offer the same durability as their counterparts, while also allowing for a clear line of sight past the fencing.
This is an ideal solution for commercial or public premises which require a blend of security and visibility, like event venues, sports fields, or outdoor areas in schools. Plus, welded mesh is another tamper-proof type of metal railing, soyou can rest assured it will stand the test of time.
<H2>Vertical Bar railings</H2>
Another versatile metal railing style is the vertical bar fence. More stripped back in appearance than palisade fencing, the sturdy steel bars still pull their weight plenty when it comes to safeguarding the premises.
The added bonus is their minimalist look, which makes them more inobtrusive, and allows them to blend in with modern and more classic architecture alike.
Vertical Bar railings are a fantastic choice for commercial properties and public areas where a blend of style and security is needed, whether that’s a manicured garden or a building with more elevated aesthetics.
<H2>Bowtop railings</H2>
Also referred to as hoop top railings, this type of metal railings can be easily distinguished by its curved top edges. It offers similar levels of security to vertical bar railings, with the added child-safety feature of rounded instead of sharp top ends.
Parks,playgrounds, schools and any other public areas where children might run around and play can benefit from this metal railing style. It’s sturdy, aesthetically pleasing, and helps protect playful kids from accidental injury.
<H2>Estate Railings</H2>
Designed to give your property boundaries a traditional look, estate railings are typically made with wrought iron or steel horizontal bars, which blend effortlessly with the natural surroundings without compromising on sturdiness.
A type of metal railing most commonly used on large parks or gardens, estates, and rural properties, estate railings are an elegant way to keep the open views while defining your property perimeter.
