The third one makes you wonder what the rich man hides inside if he is surrounded by such power? The fourth entirely twined vines, it seems, is only needed in order to keep their stems.

содерж to contents ↑Wooden fence - everyone likes
Wooden fence leaves the master maximum creative scope. You can crown each board with a carved “crown”, make it curly or just sharpen. Boards customize closely or leave gaps between them. The tree is easy to paint in any desired color. And, independently, without someone else's paid help.
Unfortunately, this natural material is biodegradable, that is, it is destroyed by the effects of rain, insects, fungi. Yes, it is flammable. Special impregnations protect the tree well from harmful influences, however, many owners prefer to order fences that are more resistant to the environment. 
Fence from the grid, mesh materials
In any gardening association, except perhaps elite, fences from the grid with the name "chain-link" are found pretty often. Although cheapness is almost their only merit. However, there is another: ease of construction. In areas with clay or marshy soil, a mesh fence may be the only available option. After all, it is mounted without deeply dug concreted pillars, which put on weak soils - a useless thing.
A chain-link with a polymer coating is a bit more expensive than a simple one, but more durable. By the way, she looks nicer. The coating, as a rule, is made green to better blend with hints of succulent leaves. Or do you want a blue fence?. . Not a problem!
But such a fence is a bad defender. Everything is viewed, blown through. Purposeful thief net fence overcome easily, well this is not a safe door. Although, however, if you see through the grid that you have nothing to steal from you, the problem disappears. And if you like to sunbathe naked? Or fear for the safety of expensive garden equipment? Yes, there are few reasons why we need a more serious fence. Although the problem of the review can be partially solved with a hedge planted along the grid around the perimeter of the site. 
Concrete fence - practical, reliable, durable
Summer residents rarely build a concrete fence around their plots. Too it has an inaccessible look. The inhospitable appearance of a concrete fence will cool even the most curious neighbors. You will not be able to look behind him, you will not want to contemplate for a long time. Professional thieves prefer to climb over the fences of a higher price category, first making sure that wealth is hidden inside. It is unlikely that such a fence will be overcome by neighbor boys who dream of eating berries. And if you add barbed wire, you’ll generally get almost a fortress. The Great Wall, not subject to any fire or corrosion. Dream fence? Unfortunately not.
Would you like to dwell behind similar walls? They keep the wind, bad looks. What about pale gray? Not disgusting? With barbed wire, these fences generally resemble the walls of some prisons. In addition, to the border was really "at the castle", it requires a good foundation. Not everyone can do it himself. We'll have to call specialists, pay for their work. 
But not everything is so gloomy with concrete fences. If you apply a fantasy, it may turn out not so terrible, but durable, very durable fence, as in the picture below. 
By the way, the plane of the concrete fence is a tempting “canvas” for drawing. An interesting way to give it a joyful look: buy spray cans with paint - paint it directly on the fence with your whole family! Cheerful suns, animals, houses will perfectly revive the "landscape".It is possible as in the bottom photo. 
The fence made of corrugated board is modern, convenient, and beautiful.
It’s much better to build a solid fence without holes from another, more modern material - profiled flooring. It is made of galvanized steel, reliable, durable. Mounted quickly, serves for several decades - in your age, as they say, should suffice. Color variations - many!
Climbing up on such a fence is hard, there are no holes in it( it is not blown), it looks modern. Recently the professional flooring is popular not only among gardeners, gardeners. This fence looks stylish among the usual wooden, concrete or mesh fences. 
If you do not like fancy decor, but at the same time want to be different from everyone around, walk along the neighboring streets. For example, I really liked the fence of the rails of corrugated board. It looks no worse, and maybe even better than the usual wooden one. At least, it is much more durable. 
Perhaps you will be the first among the neighbors with a fence made from such a rack sheeting. If he, of course, you like. Otherwise, there is no need to suffer.
A brick fence is not cheap, but
is reliable But this is a fence for the rich. He needs a solid foundation, which itself costs a lot of money, plus the price of brickwork. And in order for protection to become truly reliable, such a fence still requires expensive, strong gates with good locks. In general, everything will result in a serious amount. But reliability is the highest.
A brick fence cannot be set on fire, accidentally or intentionally. Breaking is also unlikely, except with a special core or an explosion, but this happens only in some action movies. In real life, it is hard to think of a stronger fence. It looks something special - weighty, solid, indestructible.
If you want to add security to your buildings, choose a special one - fireproof brick. For beauty, if you want, order the lining of the outer side with a special decorative( facing) brick of an unusual shape. If the cottage or cottage is your fortress, let the fortress wall also look decent! 
Hedge instead of fence
You can designate the border of your site using only plants. There are several cultures from which it is customary to make such "fences".Commonly used are those shrubs whose branches intertwine with each other tightly enough to keep you from prying eyes. Such a fence is several times more eco-friendly than even wood, not to mention other options. It will protect you from road dust, provide a fresh portion of oxygen, shelter useful birds in the wilds.
Unfortunately, such a fence can hardly be a good protection against thieves. But in beauty, with decent care, it surpasses all the "dead" options. Imagine that this fence you still blooming! It looks like a corner of paradise, is not it? Suitable for open, creative natures who do not want to shield themselves from the outside world.
For safety reasons, be careful not to use poisonous plants that attract naughty children to berry bushes. 
Wicker fence
An interesting type of wooden fence is a wattle fence( wicker fence).It looks so unusual that the neighbors will surely stare. But it requires compliance with country-style country style decor, otherwise it would be inappropriate, sometimes to the point of absurdity. 
Important details when choosing a fence
- you can safely treat peering neighbors. You can absolutely not be afraid of theft at all. But from the direction of the prevailing winds, it is still better to make a solid fence that will prevent drafts from walking around the site. It is also useful in the case when a noisy highway passes nearby.
- It is not necessary to protect the entire area equally. We have, for example, a courtyard protected by a high wooden fence through which it is difficult to look. As for the potato garden, the fence there is already much lower, much less “severe”.
- You can close those areas that you want to hide with a dense wall and leave in sight, for example, a beautiful front garden, if it is your pride. But keep the same style: if the pieces of the fence are too different, it will become ridiculous.
