Fencing in Kings Langley

Although its importance as an element of garden design is often ignored, fencing is an essential part of both the aesthetics and usefulness of your garden. Garden fencing will likely differ between the front and back of properties, with higher and more secure timber fencing generally being installed in the rear garden, while the front of the home often makes use of smaller and more decorative fencing. Fencing for the front of the home tends to have a low height and large spaces between the wooden slats. Also, it is often coloured to enhance its decorative effect. Fencing in the back garden is generally 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. Due to this, these kinds of fences are around 6 feet high and use wooden slats with no gaps in between. Due to the extra height, these fences generally have concrete footings laid in between each section to offer strength preventing the fence from blowing over or being ruined in bad weather. Garden fencing sections are generally made of wood. The posts in between the sections are manufactured from either timber, stone, or concrete. Recently, fence panels have started to be made of heavily recycled and eco friendly composite materials such as recycled bamboo.
