Garden Fencing

The old saying tells us that good garden fencing tends to make good neighbours. With all the different options of garden fencing offered, it is easy to get security, privacy, and also have good neighbours, at the same time.

There are a lot of reasons for putting in garden fencing - the main function may be for seclusion or, the reason may possibly be containment - either keeping your youngsters and dogs inside, or conversely, keeping others people's kids and dogs outside!

Sometimes, it's simply a matter of etiquette - needing to establish a boundary between yours and your neighbour's property.

For both personal privacy as well as containment, wood fence panels are the most popular choice. These kinds of fences most often come in 1.8 metre sections either 1.2 metre or 1.8 metres tall.

The major advantages of the wood fencing panels are the fact that they fully block the view into next door's property. They also have a really natural appearance with the sections either being allowed to naturally weather or they can easily be stained or colored to match the surrounding landscape.

Another typical timber fencing system is the post and rail fencing. This kind of fence has a very rustic and historic appearance. Post and rail fences were used on farms and ranches in the past to keep bigger animals contained.

When used in home garden fencing situations, the main purpose is to mark property boundaries and add to the visual charm of the grounds. They don't offer much of a barrier to pets and do not offer a level of privacy either. Despite this, they're very widespread in country properties.

Some of the other common types of garden fencing material is chain link. Chain link fencing is generally the top option when containment is the most significant consideration - deters the most determined of creatures (including the tough little 5 yr old who lives next door!).

You can also make use of chicken wire or welded wire fence as an alterative - it's very inexpensive in comparison - but chain link, with it's plastic coated surface is much more visually attractive.

And, if you feel that chain link fencing has a rather severe appearance to it, it is possible to soften it's look by growing plants next to it, or allowing climbers, rose bushes etc to interweave their way in as well as out of the links - delightful!

So, there it is - garden fencing for all tastes!
