Wood, Vinyl, Metal, Chain Link, or Farm Fence — Which is Right for You?
Choosing the Right Fence for Your East Tennessee Property
Whether you're building a backyard retreat, securing your business, or fencing in your farm, choosing the right type of fence can feel overwhelming. At Loudon County Fence, we’ve helped homeowners, landowners, and commercial clients across Knoxville and East Tennessee make the right call for over 50 years.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the five most common fencing styles we install — and how to decide which one’s best for your needs.
🪵 Wood Fencing
Best for: Privacy, classic look, curb appeal
Wood fences are one of the most popular options for a reason. They offer privacy and a timeless aesthetic that fits nearly any home. While they may require more upkeep than other materials, many homeowners love the flexibility of custom designs and natural finishes.
🧱 Vinyl Fencing
Best for: Low maintenance, modern style
Vinyl fencing is weather-resistant, won’t rot or warp, and never needs painting. It’s a great long-term investment and ideal for homeowners who want a clean look without the maintenance that comes with wood.
🔗 Chain Link Fencing
Best for: Security, affordability
Chain link is one of the most practical choices for fencing large areas on a budget. It’s durable and fast to install — and with the addition of privacy slats, it can even be customized for residential use.
🛡️ Metal Fencing (Aluminum or Steel)
Best for: Strength, elegance, and visibility
Metal fences (usually aluminum or powder-coated steel) combine strength with style. They’re great for pools, front yards, and properties that benefit from visibility without sacrificing security.
🌾 Farm Fencing
Best for: Large properties, livestock, rustic style
Whether it’s traditional split rail, woven wire, or high-tensile fencing, farm fencing defines your land while keeping animals in (or out). It’s cost-effective, rugged, and essential for agricultural properties.
