2. Survery Your Surroudings
Take a look around your area—are there common styles or materials that stand out? Bridgeport's neighborhoods often feature classic picket fences for front yards, wood privacy fences for backyards, or sleek vinyl options for a clean, modern look. If you’re near the South End, you may notice weather-resistant materials like aluminum or vinyl are popular choices.​
3. Tailor to Your Home's Needs
Then consider your home's architectural style, placement on your land, and the purpose of your fence. Do you have a modern or historical home. Do you border homes that may require you to consider greater privacy? Determining how much of your backdrop - or neighbors - you want to see is a primary consideration in fence design. Another item to contemplate is security and pets. Does you home border a busy street or commercial building. If so, 6' H privacy panels or chainlink is an option. Do you have a driveway you want to close off with a double gate? If so, we customize gates of all sizes and widths to accomodate every home.

Wood
When considering the wood species options in; cedar, spruce or pine, combined with dozens of models available, choices for your Bridgeport home are endless. Wood panels also provide the greatest flexibility to trim and contour the panels to hug land grades which are frequent for homes north of I-95. Wood fences are also commonly seen on wall tops around town with the "good neighbor", tongue and groove, cap and trim fence panel being the most prefered privacy wood panel in Bridgeport.

Black aluminum picket fences are especially popular for homes bordering busy streets and flat properties, while chain link and steel-core black vinyl-coated fences are trusted for dog enclosures and security measures. For a more decorative touch, we also offer mixed-media designs, combining wood posts with welded wire panels or black mesh for a modern look.

Another bespoke design you will see in town are custom colored wood fence or railing sections for decks that are solid-stained or two-tone finished.
