We may be getting close to the end of 2019, but that doesn’t mean that this year’s trends for fences will be going out of style any time soon. These current trends will help you find a stylish and functional fence option for your property. Here are a few ideas to consider as you plan for your fencing and gate installation.

The Top 3 Fence Trends of 2019

1. Wood Alternatives

Wrought iron fencing, vinyl, and other non-wood materials have seen a recent surge in popularity. This is in part due to their superior durability and low maintenance needs. Without the proper steps, wood fencing is susceptible to rot and warping from weather exposure. Other materials are better equipped to withstand the elements and only need occasional cleaning to maintain great looks.

2. Horizontal Designs

Horizontal fences have also become more popular thanks to their stylish and versatile design. Having pickets that run horizontally, rather than vertically, gives the property a more modern look that also improves privacy. With horizontal fencing, it is also easier to offset the uneven appearance that would otherwise occur with vertical fences if your property is located on a slope.

3. Additional Fence Features

Many fences now incorporate extra features to add new functions beyond privacy and marking your property boundaries. Some common examples include built-in lighting to help illuminate the backyard or the integration of pergolas or small shelves for growing shrubs and flowers. These improvements can enhance the look of your backyard and help you get more use out of your property throughout the year.
