80 beautiful fences from all over the world! Wooden, stone, forged, brick!

The fence is the first thing the owner of the cottage takes care of after building a house and summing up communications. A strong fence protects against the intrusion of strangers, closes from prying eyes, decorates the local area. And that's not all. In addition to performing its direct functions, it also plays a symbolic role - it marks the boundaries of possessions, where a person feels like a sovereign master. What types of fences are there? How to choose the right type and material depending on the needs of each cottage owner?

Criteria for choosing the type of fencing house

Plot owners are guided by their own needs, choosing the type of fence for giving. Three main functions of the fence:
- definition of boundaries;
- ensuring the safety of property;
- decoration of the landscape.

All fences perform these functions to a greater or lesser extent. However, the owners usually focus on one point. If it is important for the owner to simply mark the boundaries between the plots, a light fence or hedge of shrubs or other ornamental plantings will do. If special attention is paid to the issue of security, then a stronger and more reliable fence is needed. In any case, it is desirable that the design looks aesthetically pleasing and does not spoil the general appearance of the local area, and ideally, it decorates. It is good if the fence is easy to maintain and inexpensive to repair.

The material and design of the structure are of fundamental importance. For example, wood is great for creating a country-style landscape, wicker fences are used as an important element when decorating a site in a folk style, stone and decorative finishing bricks are ideal for classics, and weightless-looking openwork metal structures decorated with floral arrangements look very romantic.
As for the material, the strength, durability and practicality of the fence depends on it. To correctly determine the functionality, the owner needs to objectively assess their own needs.
