Enclosures make properties safer and more secure while also boosting curb appeal. If you’re ready to spruce up your landscape, consider a fence installation this spring. With warmer weather approaching, it’s the perfect time to elevate your backyard and create a space that’s made for outdoor entertaining. Here are a few design trends to help spark some inspiration. 

What Are the Latest Design Trends for Fence Installations? 

1. Horizontal Slats

Though most residential fences are composed of vertical wooden slats, freshen up the look by going horizontal. Horizontal boards will provide you with privacy while making your outdoor space feel more modern. Try using horizontal slats to section off scenic areas of your property, such as pools and gardens. 

2. Organic Materials 

Incorporate landscape elements into the structure of your fence. For instance, you might use ivy and vines to create natural privacy walls that seamlessly blend into your lawn and garden. Another great idea is to hang decorative planters on your fence and fill them with colorful plants and flowers.

3. Alternative Materials 

Though wood is one of the most popular fencing materials, metal fences such as aluminum and iron have a sleeker and more contemporary aesthetic. These materials are also low maintenance, environmentally friendly, and resistant to damages caused by moisture and pests.

4. Open Views

More homeowners are choosing fence solutions that permit open views of the landscape beyond them. Cable railing is particularly ideal for enclosing your property while providing you with unobstructed vistas of the natural landscape in your area.
