When homeowners install a wood fence, they enhance their property and increase their security. They can hire a Fence Builder Riverside to construct a fence they designed, or they can ask them to help them design it. Wood fences come in a variety of styles including picket fences, split rail fences and privacy fences. They all can define a property boundary, however some provide more security and privacy. A fencing contractor can help their client select the best wood fence to meet their needs.
A gardener may only want a fence that shows off his flower beds and defines his property. A split rail fence will let everyone one where his land begins. It will also provide climbing roses a beautiful place to grow. While it will provide a tactful notice that people should respect his property, it won’t do much to stop animals from entering his property. Even dogs on long leashes might end up in the flowers.
A picket fence will still let passersby enjoy a gardener’s landscape. However, it will provide more protection from animals than a split rail fence. A Fence Builder Riverside can design a fence with pickets close together and close to the ground. This will prevent the smallest dog from entering the property. Picket fences are usually about three feet high. So it will be possible for most people to easily climb over it. Often people put a picket fence in the front yard, where security is not a top priority. They may put a taller fence in the backyard, which is often darker and more isolated.
People who value their privacy or who want to keep people away from their swimming pool may decide to install a six-foot wood privacy fence. Six-feet is usually the highest fence that most communities will allow without a permit. For safety reasons, they want taller structures to be inspected. The top 12 inches of the privacy fence may be replaced by a lattice or trellis design. This still prevents people from easily climbing over it, but gives it a lighter feeling than solid wood.
