Split rail fencing is an excellent choice for your yard’s new fence. But it isn’t the only choice available!
When it comes to your Washington, DC home, there is nothing more important than protecting your property and your family. Wooden fencing will give your residential property just the right amount of aesthetic appeal as well as the protection your family deserves. But there are a few different options on the market you should explore before ordering a plain wooden privacy fence. Let’s look at your options!
Estate and Paddock Fences
These fences will give your home the elegance it deserves. They fit almost every budget and are often seen as paddock fencing for animals or at large estates. They are three to five horizontal boards set between two posts and is extremely popular with animal lovers because they are hard for horses and dogs to scale.
Split Rail
Like the paddock and estate design, this fencing has two to three horizontal rails balanced between two posts. The costs of labor and materials can be expensive over a large piece of land. These rails can be installed in as little as two pieces or as many as five depending on your budget.
The Classic Picket Fence
Picket fences are like the American Dream of fencing. They are always in high demand for their classic designs. Picket fences are a visually appealing effect for your home and also provide the privacy you’d expect from a fence. It is perfect for homes with nosy neighbors.
Stockade and Board-on-Board Fences
For extra privacy, a stockade is your answer. These fences are made by placing boards tightly together to create a tight panel. They are generally six feet tall and are the typical privacy fence. Board-on-board fences are built for extra privacy as well as aesthetic appeal. The boards overlap to create a pattern and give the fence a unique look.
