Are you dreaming of a more beautiful, private, and secure outdoor space in Seattle? A well-chosen fence can transform your garden from a simple yard into a tranquil oasis. But with so many options, where do you even begin? At Alien Fence, we understand the unique needs of Seattle homeowners, and we’re here to guide you through the process. Let’s dive into some frequently asked questions!
As Plant Expert Linda Vater from Southern Living® Plant Collection so eloquently puts it, “Fences can serve many purposes in the landscape…They are a terrific tool for establishing a sense of place and creating intimacy and enclosure. There’s nothing more magical than swinging open a gate and experiencing the loveliness of a garden all at once as we enter.” Beyond aesthetics, a garden fence from Alien Fence offers Seattle homeowners privacy and screening, creating a peaceful retreat shielded from prying eyes and blocking unsightly views. It also provides protection, keeping curious critters from feasting on your prized plants. And of course, it enhances the overall beauty and value of your property with a stylish and well-maintained fence.
“In addition to vinyl or wooden fences, a natural, or living fence is one of the most attractive ways to establish the boundaries of your garden,” notes Vater. Consider using upright plants for a living fence, or using container fences for a portable border. Or, for a more traditional fence, Alien Fence offers a wide variety of materials perfect for the Seattle climate. Cedar fences are naturally beautiful and resistant to rot and insects. Vinyl fences are durable, low-maintenance, and available in a range of styles and colors. And hog wire fences provide a modern and view-friendly option, ideal for larger properties.
“It all comes down to purpose,” Vater explains when deciding on the height. A low fence or hedge can create a parterre-like effect and add a touch of elegance. To prevent pests, a solid fence between 2-3’ high can deter rabbits. For deer, consider fences 8’ or higher.
