Metal fences for the grave. Metal fences and fences.

In cemeteries, it is customary to fence graves. You can make fencing yourself or order it by contacting a specialized company. Today, cemetery fences are made to suit any request: from the simplest (metal, painted with any paint) to the most prestigious (for example, forged). Customers can make sketches of fences themselves or also order them from a special service.

Such products protect graves from animals. And also to give a well-groomed look.

It will be much cheaper for the relatives of the deceased to make a fence with their own hands than to order it from professionals. On the other hand, it depends on how you approach this issue. The chosen material for the fences and what sketches are created for them play a very significant role. Much also depends on the person himself. After all, in order to build a fence yourself, you will need at least minimal experience and construction skills, as well as minimum set standard tools. And then, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to make beautiful forged or decorative stone fences.

However, if you have the same minimum experience, you can independently build simple fences near graves using materials such as concrete, plastic or metal. In this case, numerous photographs will be helpful, which are provided on almost every Internet site of companies providing funeral services. For example, you can choose both universal and specific options for fences around graves. In this case, the sketches are drawn up independently. In addition to the material, you also need to decide on your own what color of fence in the cemetery will look most appropriate in a given case.

There are several types of fences. But before you start reproducing products, it is important to find out exactly what types there are, as well as the manufacturing features and properties of each of them.

Grave fences can be made from a variety of materials. However, each of them has certain advantages. Samples of such products will differ in manufacturing technology, degree of wear resistance, as well as type and price level.

For self-made When fencing the grave, it will be important to prepare materials such as:

• metal rods;
• profile pipe;
• basic tools.

In addition, you will need at least minimal experience in welding.

The main types of fences for graves:

• forged,
• welded,
• granite,
• concrete.

If you need to install an inexpensive fence, and in the shortest possible time, you can install it from plastic. This option is very lightweight, and besides, its installation does not require any special tools.

You can also install temporary fences using chain-link mesh or PVC, with which you can even install a wicker version of the fence.

Made from concrete

Such structures are suitable for small cemeteries. The main advantage of installing such a fence over others is its low cost.

It cannot be classified as a type that can be lavishly decorated. The product is constructed using standard-sized concrete slabs, which are produced with standard patterns resembling brickwork or flowers.

There is also a drawback to this type of structure - its service life, which is relatively short. This fencing method will last the longest, about fifteen years, and then the fence will have to be redone again.

From granite

Granite fences are distinguished by their original appearance. They are heavy-duty and, accordingly, very durable in use.

Forged fences

Such options are used, as a rule, by those who value not only strength, reliability and durability, but also a chic aesthetic appearance. Forged fences are resistant to temperature changes and are completely unaffected by precipitation and other phenomena. In addition, for such fences to last a long time, they do not require constant or any special care. But such options have a fairly high price category.

Metal fences

The most popular options. The difference from the others is their high degree of wear resistance, as well as their low price. For their manufacture, a metal corner/rods and a profile pipe are used. In some cases, metal fencing is made from mesh as separate sections. It all depends on what sketches are agreed upon and approved.

Metal fences are strong and reliable, and behave quite resistant to temperature changes and atmospheric conditions. They can be made in absolutely any size, and they can always be painted with any paint, choosing the most suitable color that you like. In addition, such products can be “adjusted” to any height.

Plant fence

The living fence option always looks very original. To equip it, you will need to purchase special seedlings of plants intended for hedges. As a rule, such seedlings grow very quickly, but thanks to them you can save a lot of time on carrying out installation work hedges

How to make a concrete fence

To make this type of fence, you will need ready-made special concrete blocks intended for installation and construction of fences. The panels are made from a concrete solution, to which special components are added by pouring them into molds.

The manufacture of concrete fences has some features, namely:

1. Fences can only be of standard sizes.
2. The fence color can also only be standard.
3. The price of the products is one of the lowest, unlike other materials.

The width of concrete grave fences is standard size 2 meters, and their height is 0.5 meters. Their color can be white or light gray. The only difference between concrete fences is the patterns.

The patterns come in the form of stonework or flowers.

If you are still not satisfied with this option, you can install a plastic fence, which you can paint yourself with paint of a suitable color. It will look simple and inexpensive. A stronger version of fencing made of welded mesh"gitter". Modular fences are not only reliable, but also give an aesthetic appearance grave.

Forged fences - manufacturing

If we compare this type of fencing with others, it is the most difficult to manufacture. They are produced by professionals in their field - blacksmiths. Sketches are pre-created. Next, the craftsmen harden the iron so that they can create unique masterpieces of art from it.

In addition, fences in cemeteries made of forged metal can be supplemented with elements of design art, as well as artistic forging.

Forged fences also have their own subtleties and features during the manufacturing process:

1. Metal rods of a certain diameter are used.
2. Also of a certain diameter are used profile pipes.
3. Metal rods undergo special technological treatment.
4. The prepared parts are subjected to welding.
5. Finished structures are painted with a special paint or are gilded.

Metal rods, as a rule, are used with a diameter of 12 by 12 mm, or 16 by 16 mm for the manufacture of forged fences.

First, the metal rods are cut into pieces, after which they are forged by blacksmiths. Next, they are bent according to the prepared sketches. After technological processing of all parts, they are welded together into a single structure and only then can be gilded or painted. Using patina, the fence will have a very noble appearance. But you can also paint it with paint, and in absolutely any color.

Metal fences

Making this type of fencing is generally not too difficult, and it’s also effective. Fences made of metal or welded metal can be of two types.

One type is produced using metal corners and rods, and the other - from profile pipes. Such metal fences consist of support columns, fencing sections and a gate.

This type of fencing manufacturing has its own characteristics:

1. Metal corners and rods, profile pipe must be cut.
2. The parts are welded into one single section.
3. Assembled into a one-piece structure.

According to a previously prepared sketch, all parts are welded together after cutting.

All elements of such a fence are assembled directly near the grave using necessary fastenings or by welding. The main drawing of such a design is the elements of geometry. After the product is assembled, it is painted with previously selected and purchased paint. For a more economical arrangement, you can use a special metal picket fence for fences.

Metal corners are selected with a width of 25 mm. The metal rods are 6 mm in diameter, and the profile pipes are 25 by 25 mm. In addition, it can be either round or square in shape.

To choose the right type of posts needed for the fence, it is best to consult with specialists in the store. In addition, they will definitely tell you about the advantages of each type.

Installation work of a fence near the grave

You can install the fence yourself. There is absolutely no need to hire specialists. There are several options for installation:

1. The fence is installed in the base. To begin this installation method, you need to make a base, and then mount the fence itself. The base is usually made of concrete or granite. Finishing work it is produced using materials such as marble or ceramic slab.
2. When installing the fence, concrete pillars are poured. At the very beginning of such work, it is necessary to dig holes and directly pour concrete into them.
3. The structure is being dug in. In this case, the pillars of the structure are simply dug into the ground without any additions, after which it can be painted, which will add aesthetics to the fence.

Whatever fencing option you choose, absolutely any method for installing them will do.

In general, making fences in a cemetery yourself is not difficult. The main thing is to stock up on patience, materials and tools. You will also need experience in welding.

Before starting work, it is important to measure the area on the site where the work will be carried out, draw up sketches of the fences and prepare for the work.

Ritual frames can be made from different materials. Metal grave fences are the most popular. High level demand is due to the fact that such products are characterized by an optimal price-quality ratio.

Openwork designs look great. Exquisite compositions and designs will ideally complement almost any burial place and create the required atmosphere of calm and tranquility.

In addition, fences for graves made of metal are reliable and durable. The products last for many years without the need for repairs and are resistant to aggressive environments. Properly treated structures require virtually no maintenance.

Catalog of grave fences

One of the specializations of our workshop is the manufacture and installation of metal fences. In the catalog you will find a wide range of different models.

Products differ from each other in production method, design and price. There are both budget buildings and premium designs.

The catalog contains models of standard sizes (1.8*2 m). Height - 300, 400 or 500 mm.

From us you can also order a fence made according to an individual design; experienced craftsmen will qualitatively produce a beautiful, reliable and durable structure, and professional installers will install it on the grave.

The time spent on production directly depends on the complexity of the patterns and the size of the structure. The cost of production is determined individually.

Types of grave fences

The type of fence directly affects its cost. There are three main types of structures.

• Metal stamped fences. They are made quickly and quite simply. Products usually have a strict geometric shape. There are no elaborate designs or decorative elements.
• Forged metal fences. Such designs are more beautiful and reliable. The forged frame is covered with primer, blacksmith paint and decorative patina.

  After proper processing, the metal acquires increased resistance to aggressive environments. The structures do not deteriorate over time.

• Metal combined fences. Such projects involve the creation of a welded frame and its decoration with forged elements. The products belong to the middle price segment.

In the process of creating a fence, you can individualize each element. The scope for imagination is limitless. It is popular to create sections with compositions that would appeal to the deceased.

How to choose a grave fence

The choice of a particular fence may be influenced by the tastes or wishes of the deceased, as well as the size of the budget.

The administrations of Moscow and Moscow cemeteries do not impose any specific requirements for protective structures. When choosing or ordering a product, they are usually guided by several unwritten rules.

• The fence should not stand out against the background of the monument installed on the grave, since it is only an addition to the general ritual ensemble, and not the main element of the burial.
• Provocative design is not acceptable. The classic solution is an abstract or floral ornament.
• The common color is black. You can use other, but not too bright shades.

If the burial site has non-standard dimensions, you will have to order the implementation individual project. The models presented in the catalog will not fit.

Cost of metal fence

The cheapest option is to make a stamped grave fence. Such designs can be purchased from us at prices ranging from 11,200 to 25,600 rubles. Forged structures are more expensive (20,064–120,384 rubles). Premium fences are handcrafted by our specialists and are true works of art. We hope that in this section, we have a suitable price for a grave fence for you.

Manufacturing costs depend on the complexity of the project and the size of the structure. Experienced blacksmiths are able to forge truly unique creations. During the work process, all requirements and wishes of clients are taken into account. Prices for custom projects are determined on an individual basis.

If you choose a model present in the catalog, the cost of installing a fence on the grave will be 30% of the cost of the product.

Metal fences for graves are manufactured in standard and non-standard designs. Regardless of the type, they serve the same purposes: marking the boundaries of a place in a cemetery, giving it a finished look, protecting it from accidental or intentional influence of third parties (especially when creating adjacent graves).

There are two types of metal grave fences. Welded and forged structures are popular due to their performance qualities and high degree of decorativeness. Such fences are found everywhere in the cemetery.

Welded fences

Welded metal fences for graves are often preferred by those who want to optimize the costs of decorating a burial site. Such structures are cheaper than forged ones. You can buy a fence for a grave in the “Artistic Forging” workshop of both types. You can check the cost per linear meter of a welded structure with the managers of our company.

The welded fence at the cemetery looks traditional. The structures usually have a strict geometric shape. This is their main external feature. Typical welded fences in a cemetery are characterized by straight lines and a lack of decor. For those who want to install a non-standard design, we can recommend combined design options. Such projects involve making a fence for graves from a welded frame and decorating it with forged elements. The sketch is made to order. The shape and height of the structure can be any.

Forged fences

Burial places with forged fences in the cemetery they look status-conscious. Usually such designs are combined with monumental monuments. One common composition is a standard slab framed by an original fence; such ensembles are appearing more and more often in cemeteries. Moreover, the simpler the design of the grave, the more sophisticated the design of the fence usually is. Sculptural decor can be selected for the fence in the cemetery. Small architectural forms made of metal are a current trend in the design of burial sites.

When it comes to making fences for graves, the process is always individual. At the stage of ordering an exclusive design, the master creates a sketch, which is approved by the client. The fence is then forged in a forge. Ferrous metal is used in the manufacture of grave fences. It needs anti-corrosion treatment. In our workshop we use special blacksmith paints for this purpose. You can buy a fence for a grave with a protective and decorative coating, the service life of which is 10 years. The company's craftsmen also install metal structures by pouring them into the ground, into a concrete base, or using anchors to granite pillars.

Buy a grave fence made using artistic forging technology, and you will get a decent design memorial complex, installed at the burial place of loved ones.

It is important to understand that no matter how the manufacturing is carried out metal fencing, quality will be associated not only with this process, but also directly with the installation of the structure.

Therefore, if you do not have confidence in your own abilities or there is no opportunity to get a normal tool for the work, then it is better to entrust the assembly of the fence on site to professionals.

So, what manufacturing methods and fencing can be used?

Wrought iron fences

The products are beautiful, interesting design, very good strength and relatively long service life.

Pay attention! In order for the fence to last for a really long time, its entire surface must be very carefully treated with a special primer, and then painted every couple of years. Otherwise, corrosion will do its insidious work. Forged products, by virtue of their internal structure less susceptible to rust.

Standard welded fences are made approximately according to the following scheme:

1. the perimeter of the future fence is determined;
2. pillars are installed in the corners;
3. a thread is stretched between the corner supports, and the points at which holes need to be made for the intermediate supports are determined;
4. all intermediate pillars are installed.

After this, the distance between each support is measured and in the workshop, or directly on the spot (depending on the specifics of the project), pipes or fittings are cut, from which sections of the required sizes are welded.

Well, after all the sections are ready, they are placed in the right places and connected to the supports by welding. Then the frame is cleaned, primed and painted and, if necessary, sheathed with sheets.

These are the manufacturing instructions.

There is another technology.

Stainless steel fences

Stainless steel is a lightweight and usually hollow pipe that is primarily used for railings and decorative fencing inside (and sometimes outside) buildings.

In fact, making such a fence is reminiscent of assembling a construction set. All connections are sold ready-made; there is no need to bend or melt anything yourself. You just need to buy the necessary angles and adapters, cut the pipes to the required size and connect everything.

Please note that stainless steel products do not have high strength and they need to be installed with the utmost care - perhaps at some sites this type of fencing simply will not work and it would be better to use a welded structure.

How do metal fences differ from wooden structures?

Of course, in fact, wood can also be used and in many cases is even necessary, since it all depends on the tasks, technical features the fenced area, a specific budget and your own experience in this matter.

For example, if you need to make a temporary fence for a site in a short time, then what is the point of starting to manufacture a metal structure? After all, it will cost a little more, and in most cases it will be more difficult to make.

Or another example.

If you have a tight deadline and a limited budget, but want to make something really massive and beautiful, then wood is the perfect choice. Durable timber, wide boards, paint of the desired color - from such materials you can create a real masterpiece.

Moreover, installing a wooden fence with your own hands is easier to implement than a metal one.

If we talk about weight, then, in principle, in this regard, structures made of wood and metal are not very different - in both cases you will need a foundation of approximately the same strength.

But if we ignore these facts and the fact that the price of a metal fence is slightly higher, then metal fences still have certain advantages over wooden ones.

In particular, we are talking about the following points:

• metal is not afraid of temperature changes;
• metal fences are in most cases stronger than wooden ones;
• metal, unlike wood, is not afraid of fire;
• wood is easier to deform;
• If metal supports properly processed, they will last an order of magnitude longer than their wooden counterparts.

As you can see, it turns out that both options are good, but in context - under certain conditions. But in general, whatever one may say, if the budget or capabilities allow, and there is no clear connection to the design or style of the house, then it is still more advisable to make a metal fence.

Let's summarize.
