Timber fencing is a consistently popular choice for several compelling reasons. Its natural aesthetics provide a warm and organic feel that complements a wide array of architectural styles, from traditional to modern. The versatility of timber, with its numerous styles and finishes available, allows for significant customisation to suit individual preferences and property requirements.
Compared to materials like tubular steel or brick, timber is generally more cost-effective, making it an accessible option for various budgets. Additionally, timber fences are relatively straightforward to install and repair, which can lead to quicker project completion and simpler maintenance.
Popular timber fence styles include:
Paling Fences: One of the most prevalent options, paling fences use vertical timber boards attached to horizontal rails, offering privacy and serving well for boundary lines. Treated pine is frequently used for its durability.
Lapped and Capped Fences: This style features overlapping palings with a horizontal capping board on top, creating a solid, private fence with a neat appearance, ideal for residential properties.
Picket Fences: A classic choice for Australian homes, picket fences consist of evenly spaced vertical boards with decorative tops. They are well-suited for front yards, offering an inviting look without obstructing visibility.
Horizontal Slat Fences: Modern and stylish, horizontal slat fences use timber boards laid horizontally, providing privacy while maintaining a contemporary and open feel, making them popular in urban areas.
Split Rail Fences: Commonly seen in rural settings, split rail fences feature horizontal rails fitted into vertical posts. They primarily serve to mark boundaries rather than provide privacy, adding a rustic charm to properties.

Chain wire fencing, which you might also know as chain-link, chain-mesh, diamond-wire-mesh, or cyclone fencing, is an exceptionally economical and adaptable fencing solution made from galvanized or PVC-coated steel wires woven into a diamond-shaped mesh. This mesh comes in various aperture sizes to suit a wide range of applications.
Chain mesh fencing offers several key advantages, including its affordability, durability (resistant to rust and corrosion), and versatility for residential, commercial, and industrial uses. It's also quick to install, can be customized for different terrains, requires minimal maintenance, and provides clear visibility.
Its quick and easy installation, coupled with its ability to not obstruct views, makes it a practical choice for many settings. Furthermore, chain-mesh wire is notably durable and strong, capable of withstanding high winds and significant impacts. This resilience makes it a preferred perimeter safety barrier for areas like tennis courts and cricket fields.
Beyond sports facilities, you'll find this versatile fencing material commonly used for warehouse dividers, storage enclosures, access gates, factories, warehouses, and construction sites.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss how chain wire fencing can benefit your specific needs, please don't hesitate to reach out.
