Metal Fences with Wood: The Best of Both Worlds with MetalGrain

When it comes to outdoor spaces, metal fences with wood have become one of the most sought-after designs for homeowners, contractors, and architects alike. This combination delivers the strength and durability of metal with the natural warmth and beauty of wood, creating a fence that is both functional and visually stunning.

At MetalGrain, we take this idea even further—offering wood-look metal fencing systems that capture the appearance of real wood without the headaches of ongoing maintenance.

What Are Metal Fences with Wood?

Traditionally, a metal fence with wood features a metal frame (posts and rails) paired with wood slats or panels. While this design offers a stylish contrast and added strength, the wood elements are still prone to warping, rotting, fading, and cracking over time.

MetalGrain’s solution? We manufacture fences entirely from metal, using advanced sublimation technology to apply realistic woodgrain finishes—like cedar, walnut, oak, and teak—onto powder-coated aluminum and steel components. The result is a metal fence that looks like wood, with all the durability, weather resistance, and longevity metal provides.
