One will not rust. The other takes ornamental work. The site usually decides.

Aluminum is the low-maintenance answer for long runs and exposed boundaries. Steel is what you want when the fence has real ornamental detail in it. Neither is the right answer everywhere, which is why the site gets looked at first.

Acreage boundaries run over ground that moves. Panels get racked or stepped to the grade so the top line stays deliberate instead of wandering.

Long driveways mean long runs, and every extra foot of run is another decision about power, voltage drop and control.

Also inside the HVHZ

Broward falls inside the same High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as Miami-Dade, so the wind rating carries across the county line unchanged. What does not carry across is the paperwork: permitting is administered locally, and the sensible order is to ask what Weston expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.

Will it match the gate?
The fence is drawn from the same detail as the gate, so the picket, the rail and the finish line up.
Aluminum or steel?
Aluminum will not rust and suits long boundary runs. Steel takes ornamental work. The site usually decides.
My ground is not level.
Panels are racked or stepped to the grade so the top line stays deliberate instead of wandering.
Can you match a fence that is already there?
Usually. Picket profile, rail height and spacing get measured off the existing run rather than guessed from a photograph.
