Upgrading to iron with regards to your doors and gates may seem like an odd thing to say. This is because iron is not typically looked upon as something that you would add to your home in order to make it more appealing. People have thoughts of the bars on the windows that you will see in high crime areas when they think of adding security aspects to their home. While these types of designs are certainly an option if you want them, then inclusion of iron doors and gates does not have to look like a prison. One of the best aspects about iron is that it is just as strong if it is presented in a more artistic layout as it is if it is presented in the typical "bars on your windows" fashion. This means that if the doors are designed in a way that also adds more flowing scrollwork or knuckles as ornamentation, the strength aspects are not compromised.
When you are designing a custom iron door, you can leave it plain or you can add to it in order to make it flow with the design of the house. When that door is then installed within the presentation, and it is the first thing that someone sees when they look at the front of the house, then the embellishments can make it or break it. If it is left plain then it will look far more like a security door than if it has some additions that are designed specifically for beauty. These beatifications are quite fashionable right now, and are generally used more extensively on higher end homes. This translates to improving the value of your existing home no matter what level it is, because the elements are associated with the higher end. It is literally "looking like rich people" because more wealthy people typically use these types of higher end doors. The beauty of iron as a security measure is that it is not exclusively used on lower end homes or in high crime areas. If it was, then the association would be more negative. Since it is commonly used on these higher end homes, it is considered an upgrade to almost any hours.
This gives you the ability to upgrade your home it it's appearance and it's value by adding iron security doors to the mix, as long as they are done correctly. If the company who manufactures your doors and gates has the ability to make them custom instead of them looking like they were purchased off the rack as part of your home security, then they can add both beauty and also prevent break ins as well. It would take a would-be thief hours to saw through iron, as opposed to simply kicking down your existing door or breaking the glass of your windows. This gives you an elegance that higher end homes specialize in, while also giving you the same levels of security that keeps those higher end homes intact.
