6ft Fences

Privacy: A 6-foot fence provides a significant level of privacy, blocking the view of neighbours and passers-by, which is often a primary reason for installing a fence.

Security: The height of 6 feet acts as a deterrent to potential intruders, making it harder for them to climb over the fence. This height is sufficient to prevent most animals and people from easily accessing the property. Remember a fence doesn’t always have to be the same style up to 6ft. A 6ft fence could be made of a smaller panel and a topper trellis to achieve a 6ft fence.

Aesthetics: A 6-foot fence strikes a balance between height and visual appeal. It is tall enough to be effective but not so tall as to feel imposing or out of place in a residential setting.

Versatility: This height works well for various purposes, including marking property boundaries, creating private outdoor spaces, and supporting climbing plants. It can be used in both front and back yards.

Planning: Local planning states that fencing should not be over 2m in height. 6 feet falls just under this height, making it a common and compliant choice for homeowners.

Wind and Debris Protection: Taller fences like the 6-foot variety can offer some protection against wind and blowing debris, which can be particularly beneficial in areas prone to strong winds. Standardisation: The 6-foot fence panel has become a standard size, making it widely available and often more cost-effective due to economies of scale in manufacturing and distribution.

Noise reduction: A higher fence will help reduce noise. If you are looking for a noise reducing fence then view our acoustic fencing.

Overall, the combination of privacy, security, and regulatory compliance makes 6-foot fence panels a popular and practical choice for many homeowners.
