Frequently asked questions
-
How does the climate affect different fence materials?
When choosing a fence, you should take into account the climate of the area where you live. For example, in colder climates, consider the frost line and use concrete anchors placed deep enough to support the fence posts. For warmer and wetter climates, you should stay away from most woods because they are susceptible to water damage. Vinyl is the best choice for more temperate regions as it can hold up in damp weather, but it can be damaged by extreme heat. If you live in an area that experiences frequent frigid temperatures, then you may want to stick with more durable materials. Metal, bamboo and specific species of wood are the most resilient materials in colder climates.
-
How secure is a picket fence?
Picket fences are usually used for decorative purposes and not for safety reasons. However, if used to boarded your garden, it can secure it from any pets or other animals.
-
How durable is my picket fence?
The durability of the fence depends mainly on the material of the fence. Well maintained wooden fences and PVC fences can last longer than 20 years.

Electric fence
Any further info can be requested via email or Whatsapp, thank you. I have an existing palisade fence (41 metres) which I just want to put electrical fencing on top of. There is a vehicle gate included in the palisade fence - about 5 metres long. There is also a small pedestrian gate. as part of the palisade fence. Energiser & Electricity will need to come from the garage, about 5 metres from the palisade fence.
