Creating a traditional Victorian look, estate fencing helps to secure your property without negatively affecting your view, which is why it is a top choice for so many people.
But what do you need to consider when it comes to installing estate fencing on your property or choosing the right type of fencing?
We’ve answered some of the most common questions about estate fencing to ensure you can make an informed decision.
What is estate fencing?
Traditionally, estate fencing is used to mark boundaries in rural areas. This can include country parks, large country estates, deer parks, rural walkways and golf courses.
Metal estate fencing is constructed so that it’s strong enough to form a barrier for larger animals, such as deer and cattle.
It also has a relatively simple design that is not bulky, which allows you to make the most of the benefits of fencing without an impeded view of the area.
It’s made using wide-set horizontal metal bars, which come with vertical bars between each upright. Estate fencing is a strong and stable option that works over both small and large areas.
What are the benefits of estate fencing?
Estate fencing offers a lot of benefits, which is why it has been a popular option since Victorian times and is still being used throughout the UK today. Benefits include:
Durability
Metal estate fencing is made to last for decades, making it a more durable option than many other fencing types such as wooden options. A lot of the estate fencing in the UK today was installed during the Victorian era and is just coming to the end of its life now, showing that it’s a great investment.
Our estate fencing is built to last, offering over 60 years of use and can even be used as metal farm fencing.
Aesthetically pleasing
Rather than bulky fencing that stands out from the countryside or ruins your view, estate fencing creates a sleek and attractive line. It can easily blend into the environment, allowing you to enjoy a great view without it being impeded by fencing. It also maintains its great look for years, meaning you don’t have to worry about annual maintenance or upkeep.
We ensure that all of our fencing is aesthetically pleasing by installing it to follow the natural lines of your property. Every fence we make and install is bespoke, meaning it has been designed to perfectly suit your property and your requirements.
Low maintenance
Unlike other fencing options that can require regular maintenance, estate fencing is made to be installed and left to do its thing. This is ideal if you are looking for a fencing option across a lot of land, as it means that you don’t need to regularly check it or pay for expensive maintenance each year.
Our estate fencing is renowned in the UK for both its quality and its durability, so you can be sure that maintenance will not be an issue over the years.
Expert installation
We make installation of your estate fencing easy with our installation service. We supply the fencing in a loose kit form to the site and it’s then handled by our specialist estate fencing installation team.
Part of the installation process includes welding the fencing on-site, to ensure that it’s installed correctly and that there are no weak joints. The result is a beautiful, strong and long-lasting fence.
What properties suit estate fencing?
Although estate fencing has traditionally been used on farms and country estates, it can be installed on and suits any property type.
It’s an increasingly popular option for new build houses and renovation projects as it provides so many benefits, is very low maintenance and doesn’t impact the look of a property.
With different options available in terms of style and height, estate fencing can easily be made to suit any property type, giving you a secure and long-lasting fencing option.
How much does estate fencing cost?
The overall cost of your estate fencing depends on the style you choose and the overall length of your fencing, as well as the installation option you require. While metal estate fencing will cost more than some other options, you get a fence that lasts for decades so it’s well worth the investment.
However, estate fencing probably costs less than you think. We offer very competitive prices for incredibly high-quality fencing and will work with you to ensure you’re getting the best option and price for your needs.
