Which Style is Best For You?
There are a few types of fencing you can select for your house.
You will have two big decisions. The primary choice relates to privacy. Do you need a solid structure that provides privacy, or a structure a person can see through. Following that determination, you will pick which materials to use in construction.
Choosing Fencing Sources:
Chain Link – generally one of the lowest priced options. It usually is the quickest and simplest to build. Galvanized models are built with a zinc coating, so no corroding.
Composite – similar to vinyl, but often is a mix of synthetic PVC and reprocessed wood fibers made to match the appearance of wood. It is resistant against mold, chipping, rotting and peeling. Great for privacy.
Wood Split Rail – wooden poles positioned horizontally and vertically. Has a country feel to it. Uses the smallest amount of material. An inexpensive option, especially for large areas.
Coated Chain Link – chain link covered by a shiny, protective vinyl coating. It’s maintenance free. Usually offered in colors including brown and black.
Aluminum – resistant to cracking, chipping and peeling, no maintenance.
Metal – tough, built to last and dependable. Resistant to weather damage. A lot of layout choices and different costs to select from. Can be ornamental too.
California Chain Link – a mix of two styles using chain link fence, but having lumber posts and wooden beams instead of the conventional steel posts and beams.
Ornamental Steel, Aluminum or Iron – a big collection of styles, designs and options including a variety of gates. Attractive looking but more expensive.
Vinyl – affordable, easy to maintain, weather resistant and maintains its shape and color for years. Comes in a variety of colors and accessories. Suitable for privacy.
Barbed Wire – very effective for security situations. Not good looking.
Wood Picket – traditional and classic. Often cedar. Not weatherproof or maintenance free.
Wood or Timber – classic warmth and traditional looks. Blends well with nature. Can be terrific for privacy cases. Needs periodic maintenance.
Gates and Other Add-Ons
Many homeowners will include a few options with their project. The most common add-ons focus on security and accessibility, and features like gates.
A large number of fences also have access gates. Will yours be a locking gate? There are gates for individuals to walk through and gates for vehicles to drive through. Once you pick a gate, you will then choose what kind of controls are employed to close and open that access gate.
There are also extras that will do nothing but boost the appearance.
Two of the biggest selling accents are finials and caps. A finial is put on the top of a post to give it a better design. A cap is connected in a similar manner, but it also covers the top of a post, so it will protect the top of the post from moisture.
Scrolls are matching metalwork pieces that can be attached to entrance gates or sections of metal fencing. They might provide a little extra visual interest or style to an otherwise ordinary area.
Northwest Portland Temporary Fencing and Gates
If you don’t need a permanent structure, they can install a temporary barrier and fencing system.
Sometimes outdoor projects need appropriate border fencing to protect bystanders. In other circumstances, outdoor events need temporary barriers and gates too.
A local service can quickly put up perimeter fencing, barriers and gates to help manage the movement of people at your work location or special event.
An Experienced Northwest Portland Company
Getting a fence in the ground is not the toughest job you can think of, yet it is rather difficult to do.
Work teams who do this type of work every day realize where all the potential problems are. They plan the job and then work quickly to get it done.
Should I Do the Installation Myself?
Most first-time installers will get the job finished, but the final product might not look so good. And it will most likely take quite a while to complete.
There’s a learning curve to doing this. It will take a novice builder much longer to build a project than it would someone who works at it all week long.
Even though you could save some money by installing it yourself, the main factor years from now will be how it looks. You want it to be an asset for your property. You don’t want it to look like a handy homeowner built it, you want it to look like a professional did it.

If your property’s present fencing needs a few repairs, they can often help with that too. Old metal, wood, chain link and vinyl fencing can usually get fixed or replaced.
Make a quick call and let them know what your situation is.

After they spend some time speaking with you regarding what you want to accomplish with this project, they can illustrate some products and possibilities. You can look at these choices and choose which plan you like the best.
Different styles will have different costs. The final cost is based on the materials used and the level of labor necessary to put them together.
