Secured Wrought Iron Fence
Having a wrought iron fence in your backyard, especially when you have young children, is a blessing. Maybe you have the wrought iron fence put in your backyard before having children though and did not need a lock. Now with toddlers who have the ability to open the wrought iron fence door, you need a way to secure the door from being opened. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
Securing a Wrought Iron Fence
1. Cut two to three feet of rope. Any thickness of rope you want can be purchased at a local hardware store. The rope being used here is approximately 1/2 inch thick.
2. Take the rope over to fence and weave it through two holes in the fence design.
3. Weave the rope into the wrought iron fence. This is what the rope looks like being weaved into two holes of the wrought iron fence design. Make sure that the rope is woven enough times that it is secure and it can't be easily removed.
4. With rope weaved into fence holes, tie the two pieces of rope together on the outside of the fence so your toddler(s) will not try and loosen it. Consider tying the rope in a knot that isn't easily removed by children. If it can be untied easily, it isn't a safe method of closure.
