Lattice Options For Customizing Your Home's New Fence

1 June 2015 by Connor Hanson

When you want to install a custom fence for your property, a lattice design is a good option. However, before choosing your fencing materials, you need to know more about the different design options. Once you have this information, you will have an easier time creating your home's customized fence.

Top Only Design

One common design option is to place the lattice at the top of the fence. With this option, you have solid panels made from wood or vinyl fencing for the base, but you incorporate an open lattice design at the top. Generally, the solid panels are shorter so that once you add the latticework the fence will be the desired height.

When choosing the top portion, you need to determine how open you want the design to be. One option allows for larger gaps in the crosshatch of the design, which makes it easier to see through the top of the fencing. Another choice you have is to minimize the gaps to create a smaller latticework design if you prefer to make it harder for people to look through this portion of your fence.

Multiple Directional Panels

Another design option you have is to use multiple directional lattice panels on one fence. With this type of fencing, the panels are not solid, which gives you an open feel while also creating a boundary line for your backyard.

What makes this design option unlike basic lattice fencing is that you choose latticework that goes in different directions. For example, one panel piece will angle the front portion of the latticework to the right and the next panel will angle to the left. When you step back from the fence, the overall design will have a V-shape appearance.

When choosing directional panels, you first need a main design concept, since this will help you create a unique fence for your property. Not all lattice panels have a crosshatch design, which means you can find products that have horizontal or vertical lines.

Using a combination of latticework panels is one way to customize your new fencing. One example of a customized fence is when you can choose to alternate the vertical panels with the crosshatched panels or alternate vertical and horizontal panels to create a unique fence.

Latticework panels are good options for accents or you can use them to create a semi-private fence for your backyard. With this in mind, it is best to consult a fencing company like Holman Fence LLC, so they can offer the experience in designing and installing this type of fence. With their help, you will find it easier to create the right latticework fence for your property.
