What do iron fencing services include?

Iron fencing service includes all the tasks necessary to do an expert iron fence installation on your property. This service can handle common types of iron fence installations, such as rod iron fence installation and wrought iron fence installation. Your hired iron fence installer can take measurements, mark off spots for post placement, dig the needed holes, install the posts, rails and gate.

Taking measurements

Before your hired wrought iron fence contractors install your fence, prepare the necessary permits. Some Taskers can procure these for you upon request. Once the permits are ready and you have your council's approval, your Tasker takes measurements. They can mark the exact spots for post-placement and help you choose the right location for gate placement as well.

Note that the site must be clear of any obstructions or debris. However, you may want to consider hiring another expert to clear these before work begins. After you've approved their plan for each post and the gate position, they can go to the next step.

Preparing tools and materials

If you don't have the iron fence yet, some Taskers can buy it for you upon request. They can make sure to have all the appropriate tools for the job and get the needed materials. Should there be any excess materials left over after the project, your Tasker can turn these over to you.

Digging holes for posts

With all the materials and tools ready, your Tasker starts digging the holes. They can dig as many holes as needed for all the posts and make sure they are deep enough and uniform, so the posts are level.

Installing posts

After each hole is dug, your Tasker places a post. They can attach a plumb line to ensure that all the posts are level and of the correct height once they're in their holes. Your Tasker can make the necessary adjustments if they aren't level. 

Your Tasker can fill each hole ¾ of its depth with concrete to stabilise each post. Depending on the weather and how it affects the concrete mixture, this can dry after a day or two.

Attaching rails 

After the concrete is dry and the posts are firmly in place, your Tasker attaches the rails to each post. Depending on the iron fence design, they can connect the rails with brackets or do spot welding. Your Tasker can make sure the rails are of the right length and cut them to size if necessary. They can also ensure that the rails have a consistent level of ground clearance.

Installing the gate

Your Tasker can install the gate, and if the iron fence has a drop-down bolt, they can bore a hole on the ground and attach the drop-down bolt gate. With your fence finished, why not hire someone to help you get the most out of your lawn?

Looking to install supplied iron gate in garden as entry to my hen house. Gate is 190cm high, 86cm wide and tallest hinge is set at 150cm. You will: 1. install two timber posts (dug in but no concrete please), 2. hang the gate on one of the posts (original hinges supplied by me) 3. drill a hole on the other post for the latch (which is already attached to the gate) I can supply the posts (thinking 100mmx100mm square) or you can supply for reimbursement. Optional depending on budget is to install a top panel on the gate posts to act as an arbour. Picture of supplied gate is attached (black iron arch), as well as install concept/ideas.

Wrought Iron Fence Installation

$2,500

Coburg VIC, Australia

2nd Mar 2021

Hi, I have purchased an existing wrought iron fence and I am looking at getting this installed. It is currently in sections and in storage in Altona North and I live in Coburg. I currently have a picket fence and looking at replacing the pickets with the wrought Iron sections. If possible keep the wooden posts etc as they are or replace if need be. Would need the wrought iron fence cut to size etc. I have attached a picture of what the fence looked like when up as well as existing fence. It was originally attached to wooden posts with a wood base. Would need to view the fence in storage in Altona North and then come out to my place to view and measure for costing. Will need someone able to move and work with Wrought Iron and fence installation experience. Thanks
