Fencing in Dollar

Although its significance as an element of garden design is sometimes disregarded, fencing is a key part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing will differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more secure wooden fencing typically being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally utilises smaller and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to feature a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Additionally, it is often coloured to enhance its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is frequently used for privacy and to maintain the boundaries of a garden, as well as to keep pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. For this reason, these styles of fences are around 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no spaces in between. Because of the added height, these fences usually have concrete footings laid in between each section to provide security which will help prevent the fence from blowing over or being broken in high winds. Garden fencing panels are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are manufactured from either timber, stone, or concrete. More recently, fence panels have started to be manufactured from heavily recycled and environmentally friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
