The advantages of steel gates
Most gates in South Africa are made of steel or wrought iron due to its superior strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
The primary distinction between these two metals is that, while steel contains an alloy of iron and carbon, wrought iron is made solely of iron.
Steel gates contain more carbon than wrought iron, therefore they are more resilient to weather and other environmental factors.
