Short answer: This gallery shows the kinds of fences 76 FENCE West Chester installs around West Chester, PA: picket and aluminum for older streets, vinyl and wood privacy for suburban yards, pool barriers, and board, split rail and deer fencing for larger properties. Use it to narrow a style before your free estimate.
Photos settle questions that descriptions cannot, such as how black aluminum reads against red brick or how tall 6 feet of privacy feels from a patio in West Chester, PA.
What should you look for in the photos?
The details that are hard to change later.
- Post caps, picket spacing and rail placement.
- Gate hardware, widths and latch height.
- How the fence follows a slope, stepped or racked.
- Color against the house: brick, stone, stucco or siding.
Also check where a style would go before you settle on it. A 6-foot solid fence that looks right behind a house is usually not allowed in a front yard; most nearby townships limit front-yard fences to about 4 feet and often require them to be open. Pool barriers have their own rules on height, gaps and gate latches.
What suits each kind of property?
The house and the street usually narrow the choice before material does.
Older streets
Painted picket fences and iron-look aluminum suit Italianate and Federal facades, especially in the historic district.
Suburban yards
Vinyl, cedar and pine privacy fences for patios, with pool barriers where codes require them.
Farm country
Board and post-and-rail horse fencing, split rail with mesh and tall deer fence for gardens and orchards.
How do you turn a photo into a plan?
Bring it to the walkthrough. A picture tells us the height, spacing, color and gate style you like; the visit tells us whether your lot, your slope and your municipality allow it, and what it takes to build it there. Sometimes the answer is a small change, such as a shorter section along the street or a different post cap, that keeps the look and passes review.
