Echelon II Aluminum Ornamental Fence System – Internally Secured A revolutionary fence system of aluminum posts, framework and mounting accessories that is easily assembled to form an attractive "good neighbor" appearance with no exposed fasteners. Any truly great product must have a defining feature that sets it apart from all others; Ameristar's Echelon II® fence has the revolutionary ForeRunner™ rail. Post Strength & SecurityA comparison of the Echelon II® reinforced post with standard punched posts used by other aluminum fence manufacturers shows several Echelon II® advantages. The Echelon II® post is made stronger by the reinforcing web; the conventional post is weakened by removing material from its cross-section. Echelon II® requires only one non-punched post; the punched system requires four different posts (line, end, corner and gate). Punched holes allow moisture build-up and potential freeze expansion. Echelon II® boulevard brackets allow for the fine tuning of fence alignment. The wrap-around bracket, secured to the rail with Ameristar's tamperproof fastener, ensures far greater security than the single screw in punched posts. See Structural comparison for Echelon II Strength in CAD Library.Superior Finish Ameristar's production facilities include a state-of-the-art polyester powder coating system providing Echelon II™ fences with a finish that is far superior to other coatings in durability and scratch-resistance. Powder coating has become the fastest growing form of finishing technology. It does not emit hazardous volatile organic compounds as is the case with wet paints. The Echelon II™ fence components can endure over 1,000 hours of salt spray testing; proving the claim of long-lasting durability. With Echelon II™ Industrial Aluminum, a maintenance-free, environmentally-friendly fence is guaranteed.Styles & Colors Echelon II™ is available in the following colors: Black, Bronze, White and Desert Sand; and styles: Classic™, Majestic™, Genesis™ and Invincible™.Classic™: Extended spear-pointed pickets provide the traditional look of Ameristar's popular Classic™ style. The upward continuation of the vertical pickets through the top rail culminates in an attractive spear formed with a rounded tip, blending a subtle hint of warning into the Classic's solidly impressive look. Majestic™: Ameristar's Majestic™ style is the optimum choice for complementing buildings, facilities, and landscape plans of contemporary architectural design. The Majestic's flush top rail give a smooth stately look that is compatible with today's modern and efficient architectural styling. Genesis™: The Genesis™ style offers a stately foreground with its flat-topped extended picket that does not detract from the view of encompassed landscape and architecture. The plain end atop the Genesis™ can be used as a "beginning" for the generation of different and more ornate looks by attaching an attractive finial, such as the Quad-Flare™ or Triad™. Invincible: Invincible™ means 'incapable of being overcome'. The gradual outward curve of the picket makes this style a superior alternative to the chain link and barbed wire fences of the past. Classic™, Majestic™ & Genesis™ styles are available in 2-rail, 3-rail and 4-rail designs. Invincible™ style is available in 3-rail and 4-rail designs. AMERISTAR® 1555 N.
