Why Choose Vinyl Fencing Over an Aluminum Fence?

Why Choose Vinyl Fencing Over an Aluminum Fence?

Aluminum fencing simply isn’t as durable as vinyl. Aluminum fences are prone to kinking and bending, particularly when they come into contact with lawn mowers, shrubbery and trees limbs. And while aluminum fences, like vinyl, offer low maintenance, the style and color options for aluminum are very limited. If you’re looking for privacy, you’re not going to get it with an aluminum fence.

Bufftech vinyl fencing is an excellent alternative to aluminum fencing. Beautiful, durable, and built to last, a Bufftech vinyl fence is designed to provide years of worry-free enjoyment. Bufftech leads the industry in styles colors and textures, giving you unlimited options for fence design.

Here’s a closer look at why Bufftech vinyl fencing is a smarter investment than aluminum fencing:

Virtually maintenance free

A Bufftech vinyl fence requires less maintenance than an aluminum fence. Vinyl won’t rust, chip, peel, corrode or blister. It never needs sealing or painting. All it needs is an occasional washing with a garden hose to keep it looking its best.

Innovative styles, colors and textures

Bufftech leads the fence industry with the widest array of styles, colors and textures. CertaGrain and Select Cedar authentic woodgrain textures recreate the look of natural wood fencing, while the CertaStucco fence offers an innovative alternative to traditional stucco walls. The Bufftech color palette includes 9 solid colors and 4 blended colors.

Consistent color and fade protection

Bufftech is the only vinyl manufacturer to offer ColorLast dark color fade protection, an acrylic formulation that provides superior protection from the harsh rays of the sun.

Greater strength and flexibility

Bufftech vinyl fencing is stronger and more flexible than aluminum fencing, allowing it to absorb the impact from everyday run-ins with lawn mowers and tree limbs.

Steel reinforced railings

Bufftech vinyl fence products feature a steel reinforced bottom rail for a stronger, more rigid fence, which reduces the chances of sagging or bowing.

Routed rails and fence posts

Bufftech fence systems feature precision-routed rails for safe, secure picket attachment and easy assembly. Bufftech’s routed fence posts provide a secure connection that allows for thermal expansion season after season.
