Corrugated Metal Fence For Privacy
The deer used to get in our backyard and eat everything. All of our flowers. All of our vegetables. So a few years ago we enclosed the yard with a wire fence tall enough to keep them out. It’s worked perfectly for the deer.
Last year, after pampering our two cherry trees, we were excited at the thought of how big our bounty would be. We checked our cherries every day, watching them ripen, until the big day finally arrived. We were ready, and so were those gorgeous cherries. We gathered our boxes and went out to pick them just in time to see a big raccoon slide down the trunk of one tree and slink over our fence. He’d eaten almost every cherry. We ended up with a measly handful each. Grrr. I hope your stomach ached, Rocky!
I swear between the critters and the weeds; it feels like a constant battle to tame our backyard sanctuary, but we persist because we love spending time out there. When the weather is good, you’ll find us in our backyard, relaxing, listening to birdsong and enjoying the beauty. Except…
I love this! Wanting to do something like the in the spring. Where did you order your corrugated metal roofing? I love the charcoal grey color!
Hi Amy,
We ordered the corrugated metal from Rona.
I would love to know how it looks from the other side. This side looks amazing 🙂
Hi Justine,
It looks much the same except a lighter grey.
Looks awesome, you guys did a great job! My husband and I got our fence redone by a local contractor. We choose a privacy fence to feel safer about our neighbor’s view. I don’t know what we would have done if we had to create and install the fence ourselves haha!
How does cost compare with wood fence
It depends on the fence, but it is probably more expensive than a wood fence. I’d argue it will last longer and need less maintenance, so worth it in my opinion.
It is a great idea ! And looks great !
What gauge corrugated panels did you use? Love your privacy fence.
Hi Lucy,
It is 26 gauge in charcoal grey. Glad you like it!
I love the charcoal gray color! Everything I see is the shiny corrugated metal and I don’t like it. Was the charcoal hard to find? Was it more expensive? Thanks!
No, it was the same cost as the others. We bought it at Rona (Lowes in the US).
Looks so good. What an improvement!
Thanks Linda. You should come and see it in person one day soon! xo
