Custom Metal Fence Fabrication in Warren, Michigan
A metal fence secures your property, defines your boundary, and says something about your taste. We fabricate and install custom steel and aluminum fencing for homes and businesses across Macomb County and Metro Detroit.
A metal fence does three things at once: it secures your property, defines your boundary, and makes a statement about your taste. HotFab Welding fabricates and installs custom metal fences for residential and commercial properties throughout Macomb County and Metro Detroit.
Every fence is built in our Warren shop and installed by our own crew, so the workmanship you see in the sample is the workmanship that ends up in your yard.
Steel vs. aluminum fencing
The most popular material we work with is mild steel. It is strong, affordable, and highly versatile — it can be shaped into flat panels, picket styles, or elaborate ornamental designs. Steel fences are primed and powder coated for long-term rust protection and, with basic maintenance, last decades in Michigan’s freeze-thaw climate.
Aluminum fencing is the low-maintenance alternative. It will not rust, weighs far less, and is well suited to pool enclosures and decorative perimeters where strength demands are lower. We help you weigh the trade-off between steel’s strength and aluminum’s maintenance-free finish based on how the fence will be used.
Styles and security
From timeless picket and spear-top designs to modern flat-panel privacy fencing, we fabricate to your design or develop one with you. For commercial clients, we build heavier-gauge security fencing that provides genuine perimeter protection without looking like a prison yard.
Built to last through Michigan weather
Posts set incorrectly are the number one reason fences fail. We set posts properly, weld connections for strength rather than relying on fasteners alone, and finish every component to resist the salt and moisture that destroy lesser fencing.

What affects the price
Every quote is written after we measure, but the drivers are the same on every job: total length or size, material (steel is most economical, aluminum and stainless cost more), design complexity such as ornamental work or glass infill, finish (powder coating adds cost and years of life), and whether the work is done in our shop or on site. For typical Michigan ranges see our welding & fabrication cost guide.

Common Questions
Is a steel or aluminum fence better for Michigan?
Both work well. Steel is stronger and takes ornamental detail beautifully, but needs its powder-coat finish maintained. Aluminum will never rust and is virtually maintenance-free, making it ideal for pool enclosures and decorative perimeters. HotFab Welding recommends the right material based on your security needs and how much maintenance you want.
Do you install the fence or just fabricate it?
We do both. HotFab Welding fabricates your fence in our Warren, MI shop and installs it with our own crew, including setting and welding posts on site.
Can you match or extend my existing metal fence?
Yes. We regularly extend existing fence lines and repair damaged sections, matching the original style and finish as closely as possible.
