The front fence of a home establishes the property boundary. It also affects the appearance of your home and secures the front yard. A fencing style that fulfils all of these functions is aluminium slat fencing. Consider the following reasons to install one of these barriers around your home.

Choose Your Privacy Level

Because of the unique design of the slat fences, you can create your desired privacy level. For example, you can choose wider slats and build the wall with smaller spaces for a more private garden. For an open fence, combine narrow slats with wider openings. In this way, these fences provide a versatile option that you can fashion to your needs. Also, because of their slimline design, you can construct the barrier relatively high without creating a towering feel. By building a tall privacy fence, you enclose a usable front garden area for relaxing and playing. Just make sure to secure the property perimeter with a matching gate.

Colour Options

Aluminium slats are powder-coated in a range of hues such as green, brown, and black. Thus, you can easily harmonise the barrier with the environment. When selecting a colour, notice the shades covering the external walls, roof, and trim for inspiration. If the fence relates to another element, it will look like it belongs in the landscape.

Resilience

Regardless of where you live, whether it's near the coast or inland, an aluminium fence will withstand the conditions. Aluminium naturally repels rust due to its inner makeup. Additionally, the powder-coated paint layer further shield's the metal. Thus, your new fence will look new for an extended period.

Combine With Other Materials

Aluminium slat fencing is the perfect structure to blend with other fencing materials. For example, construct cement rendered pillars and attach slats that bridge between them. The contrast between smooth metal slats and roughened chunky cement posts creates visual appeal. You can match the cement and slats or juxtapose different hues. For example, construct charcoal rendered pillars with pale grey aluminium slats. You could also combine the metal with brick and natural stone.

Thus, several reasons may compel you to install one of these barriers. For a start, aluminium slat fences offer differing privacy levels, allowing you to customise the structure to your needs. You can harmonise slats with the environment by choosing from a wide array of colours.  Plus, you can add visual appeal by mixing the metal with other materials. Finally, once Fence Contractors build the fence, it will repel rust and withstand the elements for many years.
