Wrought Iron Fences

There is nothing quite as stately and grand as a wrought iron fence skirting a classy estate. Wrought iron just smacks of opulence and next-level distinction no matter the size of the property. Of course, this option is one of the more costly materials to purchase and install. It also doesn’t provide much in the way of privacy.

Maintenance will not even be a problem as long as you keep up with a quality paint job every few years –– glossy black is classy but this can also be done in any color imaginable. Furthermore, it can be chosen for its specific security capacity as well.

Chain Link Fences

Perhaps, the most cost-effective fencing option on the market, the chain link fence is a very versatile solution as well. In a residential situation, these are best for keeping pets and kids inside the property and can even be fitted with slats to add some privacy to the property. But, they are fairly easy to climb over. Unless, they are built especially high and topped with barbed wire, which is not a good look for a home.

The biggest downside is that it chain link fences aren’t very attractive –– but there are some ways we know that can pretty them up a bit.
