Fences can be more than merely functional. The best ones do their job with style and grace while contributing to the overall aesthetics of your home. An expertly installed fence can become an integral part of the yard and an extension of your home's architecture.

Defining a border or specific area

Fencing represents the outdoor boundary, the furthest extension of your property and often the most dominate visual element of your landscape. A low picket fence or split rail fence across the front of a property can be a charming addition, creating just enough of a division between house and street to make residents feel less exposed and more protected. Fences like this can even turn a front yard on a busy street into a safer place for children and pets.

Maintaining privacy

Denser housing has people looking for ways to create the illusion of privacy and solitude. Fencing done well can raise satisfaction on both sides of the fence. Fencing that blocks sight lines into a private area of your yard can increase your sense of solitude. Screening a neighbor's overt view that looks onto a patio or deck can make you feel more secure and allow relaxation in your outdoor space. Privacy fencing can even muffle noise.

Increase security

A security fence to keep intruders out should be tall, sturdy and hard to climb. Fences make burglars feel uncomfortable as they approach your home.
