The main function of a garden fence is to delimit your property in relation to the public domain, and to prevent any external intrusion, thus ensuring respect for your privacy.

But we must also consider other aspects when it is time to choose one, such as differentiating several areas internal to your property, creating an area for the kitchen garden for example, separate from your dining area, or protect access to the pool if you have young children.

The role of a garden fence is obviously decorative too, its aesthetic appearance is crucial, since you have probably put a lot of effort to create a pleasant outdoor environment and your taste. It would be a shame to mismatch it by installing a lousy fence or whose mix of styles would be shocking, or that would give you the impression of living in a jail. We will summarize the different aspects to take into account when you decide to close your property.

Any type of fence, both a natural hedge and a prefab fence, has very different characteristics. The choice of a garden fence should be such that its integration is harmonious with the surroundings, and thereby increases the value of the property. It is important that your fence does not turn into an invasive element, that it is well grounded in the middle and does not swear in the surrounding landscape.

Depending on your needs, you will have the choice between different types of fences. If you are looking for an element that will protect your property and protect your property, you could opt for a hard construction, such as a wall of concrete blocks or blocks. Or what is very trendy, a gabion wall, which comes from Italian gabbia,literally meaning a cage. Gabions are metal-frame containers, in which medium-sized stones are introduced, and the mixture of stones can even create decorative patterns. For internal compartmentalisation of your garden, you can extend the style of the outdoor fence, but by building lower walls, such as stone, or using half of the gabion modules in relation to the outer wall.

Sometimes fences and walls are used to demarcate certain areas of the garden, or to hide them from the general view. This is the case for example service areas, or aisles for the passage of your vehicle, or still undeveloped areas. A garden fence can sometimes be used to guide your guests along the path they can follow inside the garden, such as small alleys, and at the same time prevent them from having access to areas where you not want them to go, while redirecting them to appropriate places.

Fences also serve as protection against vis-à-vis, they keep you away from the eyes of passersby or neighbors. In this context, it is also quite possible that the side speakers are higher than your front speaker. If this is the goal you are looking for, you can imagine a tall wooden fence, dotted with vegetation and shrubs, medium to tall, for an efficient and harmonious. This is an uncompromising way to ensure visual opacity at your fence, you can plant lavender paths on the ground, for a delicate landscape transition.

If you intend to install internal fences, they can of course be less massive than those you install on the outskirts of your property, and which keep you away from any unwanted incursion. If you live in the countryside and prefer a more rustic solution, it sells relatively inexpensive wooden modules, to distinguish the kitchen garden from the rest of the garden, or to delimit any area according to your needs. A simple, economical and green idea for an internal partitioning of your garden is to reuse wooden pallets, their main advantage being that they let in the light, just like a grid garden fence by the way. A fence is ideal if you have to manage animals, and prevent them from going where they do not have the right. Low hedges are also a very practical and elegant way of compartmentalizing the interior of a garden. If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, a live wicker fence is quite easy to make, eco-friendly and cheap, with an effect that will surprise your friends when they admire your plaiting ability.

An important point in the proper selection of a fence, is to determine the material in which you want it. This choice must be made on the criterion of the style of your home, its color must enter the palette of tones of the rest of the garden, until the choice of accessories that should follow the general line of your outdoor design. All fences are not necessarily colored, but you should know that if it is the case, the light tones are those that will attract the most attention of your guests, and that will stop their eyes on your type of pregnant. While dark colors are not perceived so clearly. If you choose light green, a natural color, your enclosure will blend perfectly into the surrounding vegetation, and will be virtually invisible. While the white, by the contrast it provides, will be much more visible, which will focus on your fence. Remember that in autumn and winter, when the leaves fall, everything will be much more visible.

The different materials available for a garden fence are wood, metal, cement, concrete blocks or gabion wall elements. You can also choose to combine these elements, with a wooden palisade overlooking a small stone wall, or hang on wire mesh climbing plants, type vine or ivy. If you are not a hedge trimmer, there are mesh coverings imitating plant walls, which consist of a cover of synthetic greenery. Technological progress allows a rendering that would deceive even connoisseurs.

The wood allows many configurations, thanks to the ease with which it works, and adapts perfectly with a large number of styles. It can be of different finishes, and undergo many treatments that allow it to withstand without problem climatic conditions, whatever they are. A great classic is the white, mid-high palisade, flag type, but the wood is beautiful in its natural color, with just a little protective varnish that will highlight the beauty of his vein. Wooden trunks, or railway logs, allow a personalized and original layout. If you want to give a youthful look to an old metal fence, you can hide it under a beautiful rustic style palisade.

Fences made of masonry elements, such as blocks or bricks, are strong and solid, perfect for modern homes but also for a more traditional style. The stone in particular, allows to introduce into a wall decorative elements, such as pillars or columns, an impressive and elegant decorative effect. A masonry fence is one of the most expensive solutions, but you get a unique result from a style point of view. Before you decide for this type of hard construction, be aware that you commit to the long term, if you had to change your mind at the end of the construction, you would have to face significant additional costs. Be sure of your layout, and analyze your expectations.

Metal fences can be very decorative, think of the Victorian style, but they require regular maintenance, and the application of a rust-proof primer. The alternative is an aluminum enclosure, but again, we must consider all the factors and take into account the financial aspect, which can vary greatly from one option to another.
