Fencing in Glenfinnan

While its value as an aspect of garden design is sometimes disregarded, fencing is a key part of both the appearance and functionality of your garden. Garden fencing tends to differ between the front and rear of properties, with higher and more strong timber fencing frequently being used in the rear garden, while the front of the property generally features smaller sized and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large gaps between the wooden slats. Also, it is often painted to enhance its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is frequently used for privacy and to maintain the borders of a garden, as well as to keep domestic pets or other small animals or wildlife either in or out. Because of this, these varieties of fences are approximately 6 feet high and use wooden slats without gaps in between. Due to the extra height, these fences commonly have concrete footings laid in between each panel to offer strength and stopping the fence from blowing over or being destroyed in poor weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are produced from either wood, stone, or concrete. More recently, fence panels have started to be manufactured from heavily recycled and sustainable composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
