Great Things on Hit and Miss Fencing

Hit and miss fencing is a great choice of fence for those interested in a combination of different features. Although not particularly cheap, this type of design offers complete privacy from outsiders, whilst still allowing air through the gaps in the fence. The design features offer a combination of both palisade and close board type panels, making this a great fence for both security and privacy purposes.

Because this fence is wood, one can also enjoy the option to stain the panels. Many people in more urban areas in the U.K tend to choose a lighter pine effect stain, whereas people in the countryside often opt for a darker shade.

The name "hit and miss" is quite self-explanatory but unless you are familiar with fencing, you are probably wondering what this style of fence looks like.The fence is characterized by over-lapping panels arranged in either horizontal or vertical formats. Upon first glance, one might think that the panels were a solid arrangement of planks but as you approach the fence, you can see that the rear planks are actually offset; this is what allows the breeze through during those sticky summer months.

As with many other types of wooden styles available, the "hit and miss" design can actually be constructed on grounds with steep gradients. One can choose to have the panels sloping down gradually or in increments.

Before one goes into the local garden centre to buy one of these great fences, the installation methods used to install the "hit and miss" fences need to be researched first hand. So, if you are looking for high levels of privacy without the need to compensate for a breeze, this fence is the perfect choice.
