Genuine Adelaide Wrought Iron Gates & Fences
If you’re looking for a wrought iron gate or fence in Adelaide it’s important you know the difference between a genuine wrought iron product which will last a lifetime and a cheap and inferior product which will never look the same or last as long.

It’s surprising how few people recognise the difference between genuine wrought iron gates & fence panels and cheaper tubular products labelled as ‘wrought iron’.

Garden arch, Eden Hills, South Australia
I had my heart set on a sturdy, well built arch for my much loved garden but was not able to find anything in the shops that even came vaguely near my expectations. Then I contacted Tricia at Farmweld. I sent through a photo and description and Tricia promptly came back with confirmation that they could build the arch and a quote. The arch now takes pride of place in the middle of my garden with a passionfruit growing up one side and a Jasmin the other. I can’t wait till they smoother the arch with heavenly fruit and perfumed flowers.
