This year seems like it’s been five years all rolled into one. With the emphasis on social distancing and staying in quarantine, it’s tricky being around anyone – even your neighbors whom you know and trust. The circumstances we are all facing could convince you to increase the level of privacy and protection you have around the edges of your property. That said, there’s nothing stopping you from making your new fence look as attractive as possible. Here are some trending fence and gate combinations for you to try out before the year is over!
Darker Color Palettes
Depending on your aesthetic tastes, you might want to experiment with how the fence looks. Along with the color of the attached gate, this design choice imbues your outdoor areas with an elegant charm. Try out colors such as blue, black, or dark grey and see which one you like the best!
Elaborately Decorated with Artistic Influence
Decorative and ornamental fences serve a dual purpose: combining form and function into one cohesive appearance. Artistic fences are another element of your yard (front or back) that is gaining steam and is on-trend for the latest residential fence developments. Aluminum fences can keep your kids and pets safe while impressing your neighbors as well!
Increased Privacy as a Priority
A solid fence, complete with a gate that discourages intruders from entering, is also immensely important. You can use these fences and gates to tell your neighbors that you’re not comfortable with them observing your every move or misconstruing what you are doing.
Different Types of Fences and Gates
One of the best qualities of a gate fence is that it is incredibly customizable. Combine different types of fence and fence material – such as a white picket fence in the front with chain link in the back – to make your configuration more interesting and get the best of both worlds.
Using Lighting to Full Effect
With the days growing shorter and the nights getting longer, you will probably need more illumination after dark. That’s one of the best reasons to use exterior lighting to emphasize your fence. Adding some lights make it easier to see, whether you need to let the dogs out to potty or you’ve got to water the plants in your garden once the sun goes down. String lights are also a wonderful way to give your fence some more visual appeal along with increasing visibility. Even so, winding lights around your fence and your gate is still a great idea to play around with this fall!
