Expanded metal is commonly used to reinforce windows, gates, trailers, fencing, walkways, and grates. It is highly durable and robust. This material allows the flow of air, water and light, and the holes are usually relatively small; therefore, it is a great way to protect from larger objects and debris from falling through the holes of the protected area.
