FAQ's

Wood is cheaper in the short term and vinyl is cheaper in the long term. However, if you factor in the long-term maintenance required to get a useful life out of your wood fence then vinyl would be the cheaper option. Costs required to stain/steal the fence adds additional cost and must be done every 3-5 years. You must consider what type of investment you are willing to make and how long you think they will own the property. Additionally, are you willing and able to do more maintenance on your fence or do you want something that is more carefree? 

Wood will eventually give way to the elements in warping and cracking which will require new pickets, post, etc. which will look out of place and not be a perfect match when compared to the weathered look of the existing fence.

For small dogs, aluminum fence panels can be constructed with a puppy picket design that has a smaller space in between pickets at the bottom but does not inhibit sight at the top of the fence. Also, for dogs that are more aggressive there are different grades of aluminum (residential and commercial) that can provide more rigidity as well as a double picket design versus standard picket to give extra peace of mind.

What is the approximate length of fence needed? How many gates do I want? What size gates? Do I need to get lawnmowers or other large items in and outside of the proposed perimeter?

Great question! The best question to start with is what is the purpose of your fence? Do you want privacy, security, good looks, pet and child safety, and low maintenance? The two best fences for low maintenance are aluminum fences and vinyl fences. From there you can narrow your search down to how much privacy you would like. If privacy is a top concern, then a 6’ tall vinyl privacy is a great option. If you are looking for something that enhances the look of your yard aluminum should be considered.

For a high security fence, focus on height, material strength, design features that prevent climbing, robust gate security (since that is often the easiest point of entry), and anti-digging measures.

The intended application should cause you to consider the following factors: height, material, design features, gate security, and visibility.

Residential chain-link line posts are set more than 10’ apart. First, pull a string line to ensure the fence will be built in a straight line. Then dig the holes 12’’ deep, drive the posts down 12’’ more inches and add concrete. Next, cut the tops of the posts to an appropriate height. Then add top rail to the top of the fence and add the loop caps and brace bands. Now stretch tension wire along the bottom of the fence to ensure the bottom is secure enough to prevent a dog from escaping at the bottom of the fence. Next, stretch the chain-link fabric across the front of the posts and top rail. Finally, install the hook ties to the fabric and hog ring the fabric to the tension wire.
