Ornamental Fencing Professionals
Our ornamental fencing combines elegant design with lasting strength, adding curb appeal while clearly defining your property. Built from high-quality metal with a durable powder-coated finish, ornamental fences offer the classic look of wrought iron with the benefits of modern, low-maintenance materials.
Ornamental Fence Installation
Ornamental fencing is a strong choice for homeowners and businesses that want security, curb appeal, and a clear property boundary without closing off the look of the space. Unlike full privacy fencing, ornamental metal fencing creates a clear boundary while still allowing visibility, airflow, and an open appearance.
This makes it especially useful for front yards, driveways, gardens, walkways, commercial properties, and areas where you want a fence that looks refined while still helping protect the space. The open picket design can improve safety and property definition without making the yard feel boxed in.
Preferred Choice Fencing installs ornamental fences in a range of heights and styles, including open picket and flat top options. Black is the most common finish, but custom colours may be available for an additional charge. Whether you are upgrading curb appeal, adding a matching gate, or improving security around a residential or commercial property, we can help you choose an ornamental fence style that fits the layout and purpose of your project.
We install ornamental fencing throughout Central and North Vancouver Island, from Mill Bay to Campbell River, including Nanaimo, Ladysmith, Duncan, Lantzville, Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Courtenay, Comox, and nearby communities.
Ornamental Fence Options
Our ornamental fencing options are designed to provide a clean, attractive finish while meeting the practical needs of your property. Depending on the layout and purpose of the fence, ornamental panels can be used for decorative boundaries, security fencing, pet areas, driveway entrances, garden enclosures, and commercial spaces.
Available options include:
- Heights up to 8 feet tall
- Open picket and flat top styles
- Standard black finish
- Custom colours available for an additional charge
- Double and single gates available
Where Ornamental Fencing Works Best
Ornamental fencing is ideal for areas where you want structure, security, and visibility at the same time. It is often used along front property lines, around driveways, beside landscaping, near retaining walls, around strata or commercial properties, and anywhere a solid privacy fence would feel too heavy.
Because ornamental fencing has an open design, it allows light and sightlines to pass through while still creating a clear physical boundary. This can be especially useful for properties with gardens, views, decorative landscaping, or architectural features you do not want to hide.
For homeowners, ornamental fencing can add a polished look to the front of a property while helping guide foot traffic and improve safety. For businesses and commercial properties, it can provide a professional appearance while helping control access to specific areas.
Matching Ornamental Gates Available
A matching ornamental gate helps complete the look of the fence while giving your property a functional access point. Single gates are a good fit for walkways, side yards, gardens, and pedestrian entrances, while double gates are often used for driveways, equipment access, and wider openings.
Preferred Choice Fencing can help match the gate style, height, and finish to the rest of your ornamental fence so the finished installation looks consistent from end to end.
Ornamental Fence Maintenance
Ornamental fencing is popular because it offers a refined appearance without the regular painting or staining associated with some traditional fence materials. The powder-coated finish helps protect the metal and keeps the fence looking clean with minimal upkeep.
Basic maintenance usually includes rinsing the fence with a hose, clearing away leaves or debris, and occasionally checking gates, hinges, latches, and posts. For many property owners, ornamental fencing is a practical choice because it provides long-term curb appeal without demanding frequent maintenance.
Ornamental Fencing FAQs
Is ornamental fencing good for security?
Yes. Ornamental fencing creates a strong physical boundary while maintaining visibility across the property. It is commonly used for front yards, driveways, commercial spaces, and areas where security and appearance both matter.
Does ornamental fencing provide privacy?
Ornamental fencing is not designed for full privacy. Its open picket style allows visibility and airflow, making it better for curb appeal, security, and property definition than visual screening.
What colours are available?
Black is the most common finish for ornamental fencing. Custom colours may be available for an additional charge depending on the product and project requirements.
Can ornamental fencing include gates?
Yes. Single and double gates are available and can be matched to the style, height, and finish of the ornamental fence.
Is ornamental fencing low maintenance?
Yes. Ornamental fencing is designed to be low maintenance. The powder-coated finish helps protect the material, and most cleaning can be done with a hose and occasional inspection of gates and hardware.
