Inspiring fence ideas

Here are some ideas for garden fences that can enhance the aesthetics and functionality of your outdoor space. Ask us at Olive Tree Gardens about fence installation and repair.

Traditional Wooden Fence

A classic choice, wooden fences provide a timeless look. They can be customised in terms of height, design, and stain colour to match your garden style. Paint your fence panels in vibrant colours to make a bold statement or opt for subtle blues and greens to enhance the calming effect of your garden space.

Decorative Metal Fence

Metal fences, such as wrought iron or aluminium, add an elegant and sophisticated touch to your garden. They can be designed with intricate patterns or scrolls for a decorative appeal.

Bamboo Fence

If you prefer a more natural and eco-friendly option, bamboo fences are a great choice. They provide privacy while creating a tropical or Zen-like atmosphere in your garden.

Living Fence

Consider creating a living fence using plants or hedges. Plants like privet, boxwood, or bamboo can be grown in a row to form a green and lush barrier around your garden.

Gabion Wall

Gabion walls are made of wire cages filled with rocks or stones. They provide a contemporary and industrial look while offering a durable and secure fence solution.

Picket Fence

Picket fences are typically made of wood and consist of vertical boards with evenly spaced gaps. They add a charming and nostalgic feel to any garden, especially cottage-style gardens. They are particularly suitable for front gardens where you need to keep fences low to respect local authority regulations.

Recycled Materials

Consider using recycled materials like old doors, reclaimed wood, or metal sheets to construct an eclectic and environmentally friendly garden fence.

Vertical Garden Fence

Install a fence that doubles as a vertical garden. Use trellises, wire mesh, or modular planting systems to grow climbing plants or hang potted plants along the fence, adding greenery and visual interest.
