What is a wooden fence? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Which wood should I choose for my fence?<\/em> Wood is divided into several classes, which makes it possible to determine its resistance to moisture.<\/strong> For an outdoor wooden fence, the wood must be at least class 3, as it will always be in contact with the ground (and therefore moisture). Class 3 wood: softwood such as pine, fir\u2026 <\/p>\n

5 wooden fence inspirations for a natural garden<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Natural with elegance:<\/h3>\n

People often think that the color black<\/strong> darkens a space or is synonymous with sadness\u2026 That is not always true! With the right accessories, a wooden fence painted black adds extra character<\/strong> to your garden. Modern and elegant<\/strong>, your wooden fence is instantly transformed into a whole new look. What is more, black will make the beautiful plants you place in front stand out. Add a string of lights, a Berber rug, and a fire pit in the center of your terrace, and you are all set!  <\/p>\n

How do you paint your wooden fence?<\/strong> Strip your wooden panel using a sander and sandpaper. Clean it with high-pressure water, then let it dry for at least 24 hours. Then apply your special wood paint using a roller, and a brush for the details. <\/p>\n

Industrial decor:<\/h3>\n

This industrial style is not limited to the inside of your home! It is entirely possible to create this look in your garden or on your terrace with a wooden fence. The idea is to choose a dark brown wood<\/strong> and pair it with metal outdoor furniture<\/strong>. Hang a few bulbs, add wooden chairs with black metal legs, and a few vintage decorative items. <\/p>\n

Districlos tip:<\/strong> You can darken your wood slightly yourself! Use wood oil: it will add a few darker tones and give your wooden panels a \u201cwet\u201d effect. Reapply once a year. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mixing materials:<\/h3>\n

For a contemporary style<\/strong>, feel free to combine different materials. Wood and aluminum<\/strong> work very well together on a fence! In fact, there are aluminum fence panels<\/a> with wooden slats inserted into them. Conversely, you will find wooden panels with aluminum slats. There are also wooden fence panels with aluminum posts. A great mix of a natural material and a premium one.  <\/p>\n

A cozy terrace:<\/h3>\n

Wood on the floor and on the walls of your terrace? You can never have too much wood! Yes, it is the perfect combo for creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere<\/strong>. We recommend using white furniture<\/strong>, which pairs very well with light wood. For decorative items, opt for lanterns, cushions, and throws on your lovely outdoor sofa. <\/p>\n

For those with a green thumb:<\/h3>\n

Showcase your herbs and pretty flowers with large wooden planters<\/strong>! Along your wooden fence, place long planters made from the same wood as the fence. It will create the illusion that they are part of the fence! If you just want to add a touch of greenery to the wooden panel, hang a few small flower pots on it at random. <\/p>\n

Districlos tip:<\/strong> To reduce the cost of buying a planter, make it yourself using wooden pallets that you can paint the same color as the fence. Remember to make holes in the bottom of the wood and in the tarp so that water can drain away. <\/p>\n
