iron fence

Wrought perimeter enclosure

An iron fence is a barrier made of iron bars or rods, typically vertical pickets joined by horizontal rails.

Iron fences range from ornamental designs around gardens and historic properties to utilitarian barriers around industrial sites.

They're durable but require maintenance against rust: The old iron fence had begun to flake and corrode.
