I need a fence design for privacy and prefer wood fences. What are my options?
Wood fences provide some of the most attractive options for a fence design geared to privacy. To explore some of the types of wood fences, please see below…. The stockade style is an example of a fence design that can afford a solid barrier between your yard and your neighbour’s, resulting in almost total privacy. While masonry work such as brick can do the same, it costs significantly more than does a wood fence. Others prefer a compromise on privacy, choosing wood fences with a certain amount of airiness to them, to avoid fencing out the outer world altogether. Tall picket fencing is an example of such a fence design style for partial privacy. Another fence design option here is lattice fencing. A popular alternative to the two types of fence design discussed above is a hybrid fence design: i.e., a solid barrier for the bottom three-quarters of the fencing, with lattice on top to provide visual interest.
