A flex fence is made of galvanized steel wire and wooden slats

The market is filled with a virtually endless variety of styles for wood fencing. Here are some of the styles available if you want to update your fence.

This wood fence is traditional and simple. This fence is cheaper than other options for fencing, particularly if you choose the version with spaced pickets. Pickets are “dog-eared” by cutting the top at an angle. Dog-ear spacing involves the space between each post. The wind can flow freely through the fence, but there is still room to enjoy the views. The standard dog-ear fence will fill in the gaps to create a solid, uniform fence.

French Gothic is an elegant, simple fence option. These posts are shaped like arrowheads, adding a decorative flair to flower beds. The wood fence can be installed in a traditional or spaced manner. The fence can be made concave. Concave fences are shorter at the center than the ends.

Shadowbox: The shadowbox looks great from either side of the gap under vinyl fence. This isn’t always the case with other styles. The style can also be called board-on-board. Shadowbox fencing looks like a space fence atop a fence. This creates an uniform appearance for both you and your neighbour.

Flex Fencing: a flex fence is made of galvanized steel wire and wooden slats. These fences can be used to create privacy or retrofit an old fence. These fences are very easy to install and durable.

Split Rail is an easy-to-install type of fence. This isn’t a privacy fencing, but it can work well to set boundaries. It is a low fence with the horizontal fence pieces. It is made to appear as though the wood has been split. This gives it an aged look.
