Superior Fence and Ornamental Iron | Reliable Privacy Fence Installation in Alton, IL

Business Background

Superior Fence and Ornamental Iron, based in Cottage Hills near Alton, IL, has provided licensed ornamental metalwork since 1962. We design, fabricate, and install fences, gates, railings, and decorative metal for homes and businesses. Our materials include steel, aluminum, bronze, and stainless steel. We also specialize in antique iron replication, repair, and restoration—work that earned us recognition in the restoration category at an international competition. Whether you need a custom iron railing, a wooden privacy fence, or decorative ornamental iron, we handle everything from initial design to final installation. We also consult for competitive bids. For Alton residents, we understand local challenges like frost heave that can shift fence posts and snow damage that stresses structures. We address these by setting posts deeper (below the frost line), using concrete footings designed for our freeze-thaw climate, and choosing materials and finishes that withstand snow load and moisture. Located just a short drive from downtown Alton, the historic district, and the Great River Road, we serve neighborhoods near the riverfront, Gordon Moore Park, and areas around Alton High School.
