Durability

When building an awning fence, selecting materials that can withstand weather conditions and comply with safety standards is of utmost importance. Selecting the appropriate material will help your fence endure for years. Wood is an affordable material option; just be sure to select quality wood that resists rot and insect infestation; cedar and redwood trees contain natural oils that offer extra protection.


Aluminum fencing provides more durability than its wood and vinyl counterparts while being lightweight and easy to install.


No matter which type of fence you select, it is crucial to adhere to building codes and consult a professional in order to ensure it complies with local zoning laws and is safe. Furthermore, building below frost lines may help avoid winter heave. You might consider hiring a fencing company as part of the installation process.

Maintenance

Frequent inspection and maintenance can extend the lifespan of an awning fence, helping it last longer. Keep an eye out for signs of rot or damage such as loose boards or hardware and immediately make repairs in order to stop further deterioration. Examine gate hinges and latches regularly to make sure they function as they should, and apply lubricant periodically to reduce wear and tear. Clean your fence periodically using a low-pressure setting of your pressure washer (either using sponges, brushes or pressure washing), along with using cleaning solutions designed for both wood and vinyl materials. 


Metal fencing requires regular care to stay rust- and corrosion-free; wire brushing or sandpaper will do just the trick for this. Once clean, apply a rust inhibiting primer, paint or protective coating will reduce further corrosion. Overhanging branches must also be trimmed back to allow airflow and avoid moisture buildup while termite-proof treatments provide lasting protection from infestation.
