Aluminum & Ornamental Fences in Ocala
Aluminum ornamental fencing gives Marion County homeowners the classic look of wrought iron — clean vertical pickets, decorative finials, a finished powder-coat finish — without the rust and repainting that comes with real iron. It's the material of choice for pool enclosures, front yards, and any spot where you want a secure barrier that doesn't block the view of your landscaping, pool, or pasture.
We install aluminum fencing built to Florida's residential pool barrier code, with the correct height, picket spacing, and self-closing, self-latching gate hardware required for pool inspections in Marion County.

- Won't rust — no repainting or coating touch-ups needed
- Pool-code compliant styles with self-closing gate hardware
- Preserves sightlines for pools, landscaping, and curb appeal
- Wrought-iron look at a lower installed and lifetime cost

Frequently Asked Questions
Aluminum fencing generally runs $30 to $50 per linear foot installed, depending on style, height, and rail count. A 200 linear foot fence typically totals $6,000 to $10,000 — pool enclosures with self-closing gates run toward the higher end because of the added hardware.
Yes — we install aluminum pool fencing built to Florida's pool barrier requirements, including minimum height, maximum gap spacing between pickets, and self-closing, self-latching gate hardware. We can walk you through exactly what your specific pool enclosure needs to pass inspection.
Yes, every pool-code aluminum gate we install uses a self-closing hinge and a self-latching mechanism mounted out of a small child's reach, which is required around any Marion County residential pool. We test each gate to make sure it closes and latches fully on its own before we leave the job.
2-rail is the most economical and common for perimeter fencing, 3-rail adds a middle rail for extra strength and a slightly more finished look, and ornamental spear-top adds decorative finials to the top of each picket for a wrought-iron aesthetic. We can show you samples of each before you decide.
No — aluminum doesn't rust the way steel or wrought iron does, since it's naturally corrosion-resistant rather than relying only on a coating to prevent oxidation. That's a big part of why it's a popular low-maintenance choice around pools and irrigated lawns.
The powder-coat finish is baked on and resists chipping, fading, and peeling far better than standard paint, and it holds up well against sun, humidity, and sprinkler exposure. If a panel ever does get scratched, touch-up paint matched to the finish keeps it from becoming a rust point.
Aluminum costs noticeably less than true wrought iron to buy and install, and it needs far less upkeep since it won't rust and never needs repainting. Most homeowners get the same ornamental look at a lower total cost with aluminum.
The open picket design keeps sightlines clear for curb appeal and pool visibility while still providing a secure barrier, which is exactly what most HOAs and pool codes want in a front-yard or pool fence. It also won't block landscaping the way a solid privacy fence would.
We install pre-assembled panel systems for most residential jobs, which go up faster and keep spacing perfectly consistent, and we use post-and-picket construction on runs that need to follow tighter grade changes or custom spacing. We'll recommend the right method once we've walked your property.
Aluminum ornamental fencing is one of the most commonly HOA-approved fence types in upscale Marion County communities because of its finished, uniform appearance, and we can help confirm your specific community's approved colors and styles before ordering material.
Standard aluminum fence posts are set in concrete footings at least 24 inches deep, and on lots with shallow soil over limerock we core-drill or use surface-mount post bases to get a secure install without needing to blast through rock.
No — aluminum's open picket design is meant to preserve sightlines rather than block them, so it's the wrong choice if full privacy is the goal. For a yard that needs both privacy and an aluminum-style look on part of the property, we can combine it with a wood or vinyl privacy run.
