Wrought iron fence set on an existing brick wall
- Scope
- Black wrought iron fence with pointed finials, core-drilled and mounted onto an existing brick garden wall along a sloping frontage.
- Materials
- Wrought iron panels and finials, galvanised anchors set in the brick, rust-inhibiting primer and finish coat.
- Site challenge
- Nearly every La Crescenta run changes elevation, and mounting new steel onto existing masonry leaves no room to hide a wandering top line.
- How we solved it
- We stepped the panels deliberately with the grade instead of raking them, and set each anchor into sound brick so the load goes into the wall rather than the mortar joints.
- Result
- An open fence line that adds height and security without closing off the frontage, on a wall the owner already had. This area is reviewed by Los Angeles County Public Works.
