Why Good Fencing Matters

Fencing does more than divide space—it supports the safety, privacy and usability of your property every day.


  • Secure Boundaries
    Protecting your boundary limits helps deter break-ins and keeps your land clearly marked. This is essential for both rural properties and high-traffic suburban blocks.
  • Privacy Where It’s Needed
    Privacy fencing provides a visual buffer between homes and streets. Materials like Colorbond and timber are well-suited for side fences and rear boundaries.
  • Livestock and Animal Management
    Proper fencing helps prevent stock from wandering and keeps animals safe. Post fencing is often used in Rutherford’s larger blocks for its affordability and reliability.
  • Compliance and Safety
    Pool fencing and security barriers support legal compliance while making your property safer. These fences are built to current standards and customised to fit your layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What fencing works best for windy areas?

    In high-wind zones, it's important to choose fencing with solid construction and reinforced footings. Colorbond fencing is a popular choice because of its panel strength and resistance to flexing or rattling in strong gusts. Timber can also work well if installed with deep posts and horizontal support rails. Always consider local wind exposure and terrain before selecting a style.

  • Can I mix different fencing styles on one property?

    Yes, combining different fencing types is common and can be both functional and visually appealing. For example, you might use Colorbond on side boundaries for privacy and post fencing at the back to maintain views. Mixing styles allows you to manage cost and performance while matching the fence to different parts of the property. It’s important to plan transitions carefully to ensure a cohesive final result.

  • Is it possible to install fencing close to a retaining wall?

    Fencing can be installed near a retaining wall, but there are structural factors to consider. Posts should be anchored separately rather than directly into the wall to avoid shifting or pressure issues. You may also need to allow enough clearance for drainage or maintenance access. A qualified installer can assess the site and recommend the safest approach.

  • What fencing is best for keeping wildlife out?

    To keep wildlife out, fencing should be high enough to prevent jumping and low enough at the base to block burrowing. Heavy-duty mesh or wire with small gaps is often the best option for rural properties. Additional features like angled tops or ground skirts can enhance effectiveness. Choosing the right fencing depends on the type of animals you’re trying to exclude.
