The Rockport system is designed to accommodate two 48.3mm diameter rails, creating a strong and visually balanced cast iron post and rail fence.
Key specifications include:
• Cast iron post construction
• Designed to take 2 x 48.3mm diameter rails
• Two-rail configuration for clear boundary definition
• Root fixed or baseplate fixing options
As cast iron railings, the system delivers the weight, presence and durability associated with heritage metalwork.
The Rockport cast iron post and rail system is frequently specified in locations requiring defined pedestrian routes or boundary demarcation without introducing high visual obstruction.
Typical applications include:
• Public parks and gardens
• Town centre landscaping schemes
• Memorial gardens
• Educational campuses
• Residential developments
• Leisure and recreation grounds
As park railings, the two-rail configuration provides effective separation while maintaining open views across landscaped areas.
To accommodate varying site conditions, the system is available with:
• Root fixed installation for maximum ground stability
• Baseplate fixing for installation onto prepared concrete surfaces
These options allow contractors to tailor the cast iron post and rail installation to both new-build and refurbishment projects.
For areas located near the coast or exposed to saltwater conditions, a waterside paint specification can be provided. This enhanced coating system offers additional resistance to corrosion in challenging marine environments.
This makes the cast iron post and rail fence suitable for:
• Coastal promenades
• Harbour-side walkways
• Canal-side developments
• Waterfront regeneration projects
Selecting the appropriate finish ensures long-term durability in exposed locations.
The Rockport system can be paired with complementary heritage street furniture such as decorative bollards, traditional seating and cast iron lighting columns. Coordinated detailing supports cohesive design across civic and landscape schemes.
