East Coast Railing Inc: Expert Privacy Fence Installation Serving Delray Beach, FL 33444
1865 SW 4th Ave Ste D 7, Delray Beach, FL 33444
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you protect metal fences from salt air corrosion in Delray Beach?
Salt air can quickly rust standard metal fences. We use marine-grade aluminum and stainless steel components, plus a multilayer weatherproofing process during installation. For existing fences, we offer thorough cleaning and corrosion-resistant painting or staining. This approach helps fences near the coast—like those around Atlantic Avenue or Lake Ida—stay solid for years.
What types of gates do you fabricate and install?
We custom-fabricate driveway gates, pool gates, garden gates, and dumpster gates. Each is built in our own shop to match your property's style and dimensions. We also install automatic gate openers and safety features. Whether you need a simple garden gate or a heavy-duty estate fencing gate, we handle the design, fabrication, and installation.
Can you repair a fence that was damaged in a storm?
Yes, we repair all types of fence damage, including panel blowouts, bent posts, and broken rails. After repair, we can reinforce the fence to better withstand high winds—common in Delray Beach. We'll assess the damage, replace or fix the affected sections, and re-secure the structure so it's safe and stable.
Our Story
East Coast Railing Inc has served Delray Beach and the surrounding south Florida area since 1988. Founded by Chris Ernsting, a lifelong local with 34 years of experience in the railing and gate business, the company started as an installation contractor before opening its own fabrication shop in 1998. Today, they handle everything from aluminum fences, pool fences, and estate fencing to ornamental railings, glass panel railings, driveway gates, garden gates, and dumpster gates. They also offer fence and gate installation, painting or staining, repair, and weatherproofing. Growing up and working in coastal Florida, Chris understands the unique challenges local homeowners face—especially salt air corrosion on metal fences and privacy fence panel blowouts from tropical storms. East Coast Railing uses marine-grade materials and proper sealing techniques to ensure fences and gates stand up to the humidity, salt, and strong winds common to Delray Beach neighborhoods near Atlantic Avenue, Veterans Park, and the Lake Ida area. Each job is fabricated and installed with durability in mind, backed by decades of hands-on experience.
