Fencing in Beith

Although its value as an aspect of garden design is sometimes neglected, fencing is a vital part of both the appearance and usefulness of your garden. Garden fencing will likely differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more secure timber fencing commonly being placed in the rear garden, while the front of the house generally utilises smaller sized and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Additionally, it is often painted to enhance its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is often used for privacy and to preserve the borders of a garden, as well as to keep household pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these varieties of fences are roughly 6 feet high and use wooden slats without spaces in between. Because of the additional height, these fences typically have concrete footings laid in between each panel to provide security preventing the fence from blowing over or being broken in poor weather. Garden fencing panels are generally made of wood. The posts in between the panels are produced from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be manufactured from heavily recycled and environmentally friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
