Ornamental metal railings protect Vicarage Community Park

Solution

Just 30 miles away, our Chester branch was ideally positioned to provide a fencing solution for this important community development. The project required a combination of practicality, visual appeal, and long-term durability, which made our metal Ornamental Railings an ideal choice. These railings were selected to complement the look of the steel archway at the park entrance, creating a secure and visually attractive boundary around the park.

The installation included 59 metres of ornamental metal railings along with a five metre wide matching metal gate to allow access for maintenance vehicles and emergency services. The design not only met functional needs but also enhanced the overall appearance of the space, helping the park feel safe and welcoming.

Decorative metal railings such as our ornamental railings are a great fit for community parks for several reasons. They provide a secure perimeter to help prevent trespassing and discourage vandalism, but they also contribute to the park's visual identity. The right railing design can make public spaces feel more polished and well cared for, encouraging community use and creating a sense of pride in the area. Unlike plain or industrial fencing, ornamental railings offer character and charm, while still delivering the strength needed for public environments.

We manufacture three design variations of our metal ornamental railings: Standard, Style A, and Style B. Each is available with five finial design options. For this project, Style B was chosen. It features two rows of decorative metal rings and was paired here with J finials, a slim and discreet option that resembles those found on traditional wrought iron fencing. This combination helped achieve a timeless, classic look that complemented the surrounding architecture.

While they resemble traditional wrought iron, our ornamental railings are made from tubular steel. This material is lighter and easier to install, which helps reduce labour time and cost. Each metal railing system is hot dip galvanised to protect against rust and corrosion, making it highly suitable for outdoor use in all weather conditions. To finish, we offer a choice of polyester powder coating colours. In this case, black RAL 9005 was selected to provide a smart and elegant finish.

To ensure the installation is as secure as it is attractive, the panels are fitted with tamper proof, panel-to-post connectors. All fixings are concealed, which prevents unauthorised removal and helps the fencing maintain a clean, seamless appearance. This makes the system especially resistant to vandalism and tampering.

All of our metal railings come with a 25 year guarantee. This long lifespan reduces the need for frequent repairs or replacements, making them a cost-effective and sustainable solution for public spaces.

Decorative metal railings offer an ideal mix of function and style. They help create a safe and attractive environment for local residents, improve the overall look of community spaces, and provide long-term value with minimal upkeep.
