We work with galvanized steel, aluminum, vinyl-coated chain link, welded wire mesh, galvalume, composite materials, and wood. All materials are commercial grade and sourced from established manufacturers like Wallace Perimeters, Iron Eagle, Omega, and Shield. Material selection depends on the application, site requirements, and your project budget.
