We understand that talking about ourselves might sound a bit boastful, but we couldn’t resist sharing some of the incredible stories and feedback we’ve received from our customers. At Jacksons Fencing, it’s not just about crafting durable, elegant fencing with a 25 year guarantee, it’s about the unexpected ways our products bring joy, spark conversations, and even evoke cherished memories.
This blog is a celebration of our customers’ experiences. From heartfelt compliments to funny anecdotes, here’s a collection of moments that highlight what owning a Jacksons fence can mean and some of the unexpected and common reactions and scenarios that happen.
When Neighbours and Strangers Notice and Compliment Your Fence
A fresh fence can be a conversation starter with neighbours, and with our designs, those conversations often come with glowing praise.
Expect your new fence to spark conversations with neighbours and passersby.
One memorable story we received involved a customer whose fence panels became an unexpected link to cherished family memories. A passerby knocked on her door to say the fence reminded her of childhood walks with her grandmother. Now, she walks the same route with her children, creating new memories around the same fence—a testament to the lasting beauty and emotional connections our products can foster.
Here are a few other reviews on Trustpilot about the positive comments a fence can receive.
Fence Photography: A Compliment in Disguise
It might surprise you, but fences can become photo-worthy attractions! Customers have told us about strangers sneaking snapshots of their Jacksons fencing—sometimes to admire the design, other times to track down where they can get one of their own by taking photos of the brass badge.
In fact, some admirers skip the sneaking altogether and knock on the door to ask permission to photograph the fence. Now that’s dedication to good design!
Here’s a nice example on Trustpilot:
Asking to Touch the Fence
It’s not just toddlers who are tactile explorers—adults, too, seem drawn to the feel of our fences. Customers have told us about neighbours and passersby running their hands along the wood, appreciating its smooth finish and solid construction. One of our favourite anecdotes comes from a man who sent his wife to knock on a door and ask, “Would it be okay if I felt your fence?” The couple’s curiosity turned into admiration for the craftsmanship.

Engineers and Craftsmanship Enthusiasts Weigh In
Our designs often catch the attention of those with an eye for detail, especially engineers and carpenters who understand the care that goes into our products.
These are just a few of the technical compliments we’ve received:
“I love the stop chamfer on your entrance gates."
“Your adjustable hinges are a game-changer.”
“The tiny stainless-steel screws on your trellis battens? Brilliant!”
It’s always rewarding to hear that the intricacies we value are noticed and appreciated.
The Domino Effect: Fencing That Inspires Neighbours
One of the best compliments we can receive is when our fences become trendsetters in a neighbourhood. Customers often tell us that after they install a Jacksons fence, envy can kick in, and others on the street follow suit. Soon enough, it’s not just a single fence—it’s a Jacksons street!

Falling in Love with Your Own Fence
While fences are often seen as practical boundary solutions, many of our customers find themselves unexpectedly smitten with their new addition. We’ve received calls and letters from people who initially just wanted a sturdy barrier but now can’t stop admiring their fence.
One customer put it perfectly: “My fence has gone from being just a boundary to being the focal point of my garden.”
Here are some more great reviews on Trustpilot:
Beautiful hit and miss fence
"Yes it’s expensive. But the horizontal hit and miss panels are absolutely beautiful in our small narrow urban garden and the amount of sunlight coming in through the gaps is more than I expected while still being completely private.
I am completely in love with our new fence and it has transformed the whole garden. It glows in the morning sun and makes all the plants look beautiful. The photos on the website don’t really do it justice. If you can afford it, you won’t regret choosing this style.
The panels are really heavy so we payed a builder to put them in. We used our existing concrete posts as it seemed wasteful to replace them. The posts do look a tiny bit ugly compared to the lovely fence but it works fine. I also ordered extra gravel boards to fill an annoyingly small gap at the end of the run and that worked well. We got the 5 foot panels with one foot premier trellis on top and it’s perfect."

Hedge replacement with Jacoustic fencing
"I bought this fence to replace an overgrown hedge, save space and provide more of a barrier between us and the road. However, I had not expected it to look so good. It is just outstanding and draws compliments from everyone. Solid quality. Love it."
Quentin Clark - Trustpilot
I absolutely love my fence
"I absolutely love my fence! Lots of admiring comments and enquiries on where I bought the panels. The timber is top-quality, planed and every panel is literally millimeter perfect. Carefully packaged for delivery to avoid and damage in transit."
