On the surface a fence might not appear all that complicated. But there’s more to the design and installation process than placing posts and attaching panels.
Your partnership with a local fence company provides the guidance and design expertise that ensures that those essential below the surface details are handled.
Whether you’re planning your first fence project or revamping an existing fence, your local fence installers understand the process from start to finish.
- Planning your fence design
- Defining the purpose of your fence
- Choosing the right materials
- Complying with local regulations
Each of these somewhat behind-the-scenes details factor into your fence design and installation process.
What’s the plan?
Material selection and measurements are a start. Even so, beyond those initial details it’s important to create a “balanced” plan for your fence.
Balance in this instance would apply to the function, aesthetics, and practicality of your fence design.
Curb appeal, increased property values, security, and the overall alignment of your fence with your surrounding environment.
Planning the purpose of your fence
What is the primary reason or purpose for your property’s fence?
- Privacy?
- Security?
- Visual appeal?
Each individually or all the above contribute to how you define the purpose of your fencing project.
Plan your fencing material choice
The materials you choose define your plan for the durability and appearance of your fence.
Your choice of wood, vinyl, metal/steel, trex, or chain-link encompasses factors such as maintenance, climate resilience, and cost.
Plan the style and height of your fence
For example, a low picket style fence is good for curb appeal but lacks privacy and security benefits.
On the other hand, a taller, privacy style fence provides more seclusion and security.
Whatever style and height you plan for your fence keep your fence purpose in mind.
Plan for local regulations
The final planning phase for your fence project must take into account any local zoning and neighborhood guidelines.
Ensuring compliance will enable you to avoid potential installation and legal issues.
Align your fencing plans with your local fence installers expertise
Clarity about your fence goals and plans can now benefit from the step-by-step design and installation skills of a professional fence company.
