Fencing comes in all sorts of varieties. Here’s an example of just a few.
This is a solid privacy fence with a Catalina lattice top. This fence was put in solely to create privacy for the residence while using their paver patio. Made of cedar and finished with a clear sealer this fence is both beautiful and admirably servicing its purpose by creating the privacy the owners were looking for while entertaining.
Here’s a good example of a solid privacy fence mixed with a screening fencing made with 2X2 pieces of cedar. This fence is topped with a Japanese type of cap for an added flair. These clients had a desire for privacy in their side yard but wanted a more open screened feel for the back piece as their yard backed up to a protected naturalized area with a beautiful view. This fence will keep your pets in while keeping other animals out and allowing for both privacy and access to the beautiful view!
This is an example of a “Good Neighbor” fence. This fence is typically found between two homes that are close in proximity. This fence provides privacy to a lesser degree than the solid fence due to its alternating fence boards. However, it’s importance is in delineating property lines as well as keeping children and pets in and unwanted animals out. This fence is called good neighbor because the same face can be seen from either side, this makes the fence attractive and appealing to both neighbors.
This fence is a modified version of a split rail fence. These types of fences are used primarily to delineate property lines, create barriers between yard usage areas and as decorative pieces. Simple in design these fences can be made of numerous different materials and configured many different variations to suit the client’s needs and aesthetics.
Fencing isn’t limited to just fence boards, many different types of materials can be used. For example this beautiful screen put in for privacy is made of mahogany lattice stained two tone to compliment the home owners style. Corrugated metal, logs and wire are just some of the materials that can be used to add flair and interest to a fence while also serving a purpose. Fences serve many purposes from privacy to keeping pets in and unwanted animals out to utilitarian chain link to delineate property lines.
The only limit is your imagination!
