Fences and Barriers Types

Fences and barriers types

Brick Fences

The name itself gives us the opportunity to understand the constructive basis of such a fence. The construction of a brick fence is quite reliable, but the construction of any brick structure requires: time, professionalism and expensive bricks (preferably with high decorative qualities). The construction of such fences involves the manufacture of a foundation, temporary formwork and brickwork. The degree of protection of brick fences is average, since its monolithic structure and protrusions allow it to be overcome if necessary. The durability of such a fence depends on the quality of the brick and mortar itself, so when choosing materials you need to be as careful as possible.

Concrete Fences

Installation of concrete fences is much faster, they are cheaper and look self-sufficient. We are, of course, talking about so-called Eurofences, and not about industrial fences assembled from reinforced concrete slabs. Having the advantage of cost, such a fence is quite fragile and, in fact, is not any serious obstacle, since decorative concrete fences have approximately the same height, no more than 2-2.5 meters.

Chain-Link Mesh Fence

Chain-link mesh can rightfully claim to be the most budget-friendly fence, which can also be installed very quickly. This is an inexpensive fence that can be used as temporary fencing. Having metal scissors on hand, the wire from which such a fence is made can easily be cut, which is why the chain-link fence ranks last in our ranking in terms of degree of protection.

Forged Fence

The construction of fences consisting of forged metal spans takes about the same time as the construction of a brick fence. The forged parts are fixed to the brick base and pillars, so you will still have to do the work of laying the foundation. The cost of a wrought iron fence is high, but it looks the most impressive. Using ingenuity and diligence, climbing over such a fence is not at all difficult.

Features of Manufacturing and Installation of Fences

Installation of a fence, cost of materials, degree of protection - these are the main points that must be taken into account when choosing the type of fencing. Note that for some types of fences it is possible to enhance their protective functions through the use of barbed wire.
