Fence Design

The very first step in your fence installation project is to determine your fence’s purpose. The purpose will influence everything about its design. A fence can have at least one of three purposes:

• Create a boundary: Some fences just serve to mark the boundary lines between properties.
• Enhance security: You might prefer to have boltered security around your property, especially to protect kids and pets against possible intruders or in the case of a pool fence.
• Privacy: If you are close to neighbors or heavy traffic, it is possible to increase your privacy and even muffle sound with a fence. 

Fence Styles

Residential fences come in many beautiful styles, and one can customize more than one might think! Regardless, one can find a stunning fence style that suits at least one of the three fence purposes above. Albaugh & Sons features many types of fences in Fairfield, including:

• Split-rail: A split-rail fence is a simple, rural style with fence posts connected by fence rails. It is ideal for rural or suburban properties.
• Picket: A picket fence is a classic and comes in multiple styles such as straight, scalloped, arched, etc. This style is a semi-privacy fence that adds moderate security.
• Privacy: Privacy fences also come in multiple styles like shadowbox, lattice, and board-on-board, and add total privacy from the outside. 
• Aluminum/Steel: An aluminum or steel fence adds extra security but offers no privacy. If you are looking for a truly sturdy fence, one of these is for you.
• Chain-link: A chain-link fence is highly advantageous to homeowners looking for an affordable, low-maintenance, sturdy fence.
• Estate/Paddock: An estate or paddock fence has fence posts connected by two or three rows of fence planks. It may have an X pattern on each fence panel. This style is excellent for residential properties and horse pastures alike.

Fence Materials

Among these styles, one can also choose from these residential fence materials:

• Wood: Wood fences could be one of numerous types. Pressure-treated pine is common and long-lasting, while cedar provides aromatic, insect-repelling beauty. Exotic hardwoods provide uniqueness and longevity.
• Vinyl: Vinyl is a PVC plastic designed to last for many years with little maintenance. At most, one might need to wash it down once a year. Vinyl is flexible to adhere to countless fence styles.
• Composite: Composite fences are a wood fiber and plastic combination built to last with little maintenance. Like vinyl, it comes in countless styles and colors.
• Aluminum: Aluminum is the lightweight, rust-free version of wrought iron. 
• Steel: Steel fences are very similar but provide higher density. Chain-link fences are typically made of galvanized steel.
