Fence in Your Deck for the Ultimate Indoor Comfort

Fenced in Deck

If you have a deck for your home you probably enjoy the extra space, design, and comfort that it provides. Decks are an excellent addition to any home because they provide a unique area for relaxation, entertaining guests, and making the home more valuable. However, without proper fencing, your deck may be limited in privacy or subjected to wind and noise. Consider adding a fence to your deck so as to achieve privacy, protection, and comfort.

 

There are many different types of fences you can use on your deck, the most common being composite or wooden fences. Your choice will depend on the type of deck you’ve installed as well as the nature of your surroundings.

 

Preparing a fence for your deck

You may need to design your deck fencing from the ground up, or simply add privacy panels to an existing rail. Regardless of the starting point, adding a fence to your deck will typically proceed as follows.

 

Identifying a fencing contractor and designing a fencing plan

The first step is to identify who will work with you to install a quality fence for your deck. Selecting a fencing contractor is important because they will help you prepare a fencing plan that fits the shape and structure of your deck. They will also guide you in selecting the right fencing materials to use. You need a grade, color, and shape that fits both your home and your deck.

 

Cutting and shaping the fencing posts

The next step will involve your fencing contractor cutting and shaping the fencing posts to be used. The posts should be high enough to provide enough privacy from neighbors. Also consider the wind, noise, and weather conditions that your deck is typically subjected to. Your contractor will ensure that each post is stably attached to the home and screwed to a solid surface for maximum support.

 

Preparing the slats

After the support rails are in place, the slats will then be installed to complete your fence decking. Slats provide the best opportunity for customization. In fact, you can vary the grade, color, and design of your slats to install a fence that meets your preferences.

 

Benefits of deck fencing

Fencing in your deck comes with many different benefits. You can make your deck much more comfortable (by adding a fence) due to the following reasons.

 

Privacy

Deck fencing adds a much-needed touch of privacy to your outdoor space. Some decks may be easily visible to your nosy neighbors or easily accessible to potential burglars.

 

A fence covers the edges of your deck and limits outside people from seeing what you’re up to in your home. This makes the deck much more comfortable to spend time in.

 

Protection against outside weather conditions

A fence also comes in handy against strong winds and precipitation. You can enjoy your breakfast on the deck without worrying about the wind blowing away your food.

 

Style

Deck fencing adds to the aesthetic appeal of your home. In fact, such a fence also makes your home more valuable if you plan to sell it in the future.

 

By varying the slats and poles of your fence, you can experiment with many different shapes, heights, and designs to make your home more appealing.

 

Limiting outside noise

Fencing your deck is also an excellent way of limiting noise from the outside. If your neighbors are noisy, you can still enjoy some quiet time on your deck. Similarly, you can host your guests and have a loud conversation without disturbing the neighbors.
