Different Types of Security Fences for Your Home

Adding the right type of fencing increases the safety and security of your home, while also adding style to your property. The type of fencing you need depends entirely on your priorities. Maybe you have a very large piece of land that you need to fence in order to keep pests and uninvited visitors away and you need to get fairly inexpensive but sturdy fencing. Maybe you just want a white picket fence to add class to your lawn. Whatever your needs are, rest assured that you can find a fence that suits them perfectly.

Fence Variations

There are three main categories of fences to choose from, and they are as follows:

• Wooden fencing
• Metal fencing
• Other materials

Wooden fencing is a sturdy and aesthetically pleasing choice. Privacy fences and picket fences fall into this category. As long as your fence is properly sealed and stained from the start, it will last a very long time and requires little maintenance.

Metal fencing includes chain link fences, barbed wire fences, and wrought iron fences. Chain link and barbed wire fences are relatively inexpensive and will keep unwanted animals and humans off your property. Wrought iron fences are fantastic for both increasing your curb appeal and protecting your property.

There are other ways to make fences aside from just wood or metal. Sometimes a fence uses wooden posts to support metal sections. Other times, wood substitutes like vinyl are used. Visit this website for more information on fence installation in Austin.
