Mesh Fence vs. Wood Fence vs. Metal Fence
When it comes to fencing materials, there are three main types – mesh, wood and metal. You’ll need to consider a number of factors before choosing the right one for your needs. Mainly, durability, longevity and price.
Here are the main considerations for choosing between a mesh fence, wood fence and metal fence:
- Mesh fences are the most affordable, but supply the least amount of protection. Usually constructed of steel or plastic, they are easy to install but they don’t provide the same eye-catching aesthetic as alternatives like wood.
- Wood fences are more durable than mesh and provide an attractive look. However, they require regular maintenance to prevent deterioration.
- Metal fences are the most durable, lasting for years with the least amount of maintenance. However, they are usually the most expensive and tougher to install unless you purchase prefabricated gates and panels.
