Privacy fences have many functions. Architecturally, they can be a decoration and improve a home\u2019s exterior \u2018face&#8217;. And they may also do a good job of covering up the ugly exterior of your neighbour\u2019s house. They can help define your space, and they can help break it up by adding dynamic aesthetic elements.<\/p>\n<p>But their main job, by definition, is to add privacy. Technically, a privacy fence is very similar to a regular one. But a privacy fence is usually regarded as being somewhat more portable and is usually at least 4 to 6 feet tall.<\/p>\n<p>Get ready to be inspired by 27 creative privacy fence ideas that you can explore right now.

First, you\u2019ll need to consider things like longevity, durability, maintenance and ease of repairs. And then there&#8217;s your overall style and the limits of your budget.<\/p>\n<p>When choosing the perfect backyard and front yard fence ideas, ask yourself some basic questions first, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How tall do you want your fence to be?<\/li>\n<li>Do you need full privacy or do you want it to be a little see-through?<\/li>\n<li>Should it be horizontal or vertical?<\/li>\n<li>What privacy fencing materials are suitable \u2013 timber, bamboo, metal, vinyl, reclaimed materials, stone?<\/li>\n<li>Will the materials be natural or stained?<\/li>\n<li>What colours will be most effective?<\/li>\n<li>Are there any features of the terrain to take into account, such as sloping land?<\/li>\n<li>What\u2019s your budget? Some projects are naturally going to cost more than others. But give some thought to how a better quality privacy fence will actually add value to your home, making it a good investment.<\/li>\n<li>Can you really DIY or would it be better if you got a hand from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/fencing\/\">fencing expert<\/a>?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>How to choose the right fencing materials?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Consider the full range of possible privacy fence materials. Don&#8217;t limit your thinking to timber slats. You\u2019ll find there are many more fencing options in other materials. For example, recycled plastics, vinyl, aluminium, steel, concrete or wrought iron. The latest composite materials are always a good solution, offering low-maintenance and longevity.<\/p>\n<p>You could also consider masonry work. It may not be the cheapest solution, but consider whether a stonemason might create a gorgeous stone wall for you. Modern gabion walls are an option too\u2014a sturdy fence design that has been around since mediaeval times.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33039\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33039\" style=\"width: 451px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33039\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052334\/privacy-fence-stone-wall.jpg\" alt=\"privacy-fence-stone-wall\" width=\"451\" height=\"676\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33039\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/JFpbSXeSq3A?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by Jennifer Marcus on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div\r\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"hustle-ui hustle-inline hustle-palette--5ee70537d13573_20650904 hustle_module_id_14 module_id_14   hustle-size--custom\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tdata-id=\"14\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-render-id=\"0\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-tracking=\"enabled\"\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-intro=\"no_animation\"\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-sub-type=\"shortcode\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"opacity: 0;\"\r\n\t\t\t><div class=\"hustle-inline-content\"><div class=\"hustle-info hustle-info--compact\"><div class=\"hustle-layout\"><div class=\"hustle-content\"><div class=\"hustle-content-wrap\"><div class=\"hustle-group-title\"><span class=\"hustle-title\">Find a Tasker for your next home project!<\/span><\/div><div class=\"hustle-cta-container\"><a class=\"hustle-button hustle-button-cta \" href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/post-task\/\" target=\"_self\" data-cta-type=\"cta\">Post a task<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p>Other options include pre-formed etched metal privacy screens which come in a range of patterns and designs.

Consider a flower wall or a fruit tree wall<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You might also consider creating a flower wall or planting an edible wall of fruit trees in planters. An excellent choice for pleaching and for colour is a bougainvillaea tree. Just watch out for the thorns! (A tree wall is constructed by \u2018pleaching\u2019 trees, which is essentially tying branches together to create a wall.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. Get into bamboo<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Bamboo screening is one of the easiest DIY fence designs for homes. Buy a roll of bamboo reed fence and attach it to your existing fence or railing. Or buy pre-formed metal fence frames together with bamboo panels to construct yourself.<\/p>\n<p>You could also simply install bamboo poles for an easy, cheap solution.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. Brush it off<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Brush privacy fencing is a classic option. There will be no peering eyes getting into your house with one of these fences.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. Timber chevron wall<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You&#8217;ve got herringbone splashback tiles and herringbone timber flooring. Now meet the herringbone privacy wall! You might think this is an easy DIY idea. But with the precise angle cuts needed, a herringbone pattern is definitely something to get some help with if you&#8217;re not a pro.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. Wide horizontal natural planks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is a much easier DIY project if you want to try this privacy fence idea. All you need to do is take a trip to your local hardware store and then set aside a weekend or two to get it done.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33044\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33044\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33044\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052332\/privacy-fence-building-a-privacy-fence.jpg\" alt=\"privacy-fence-building-a-privacy-fence\" width=\"1379\" height=\"1034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052332\/privacy-fence-building-a-privacy-fence.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052332\/privacy-fence-building-a-privacy-fence-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052332\/privacy-fence-building-a-privacy-fence-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33044\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/AYCA7N_oPtU?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by Meritt Thomas on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>10. Timber vertical panelling<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Possibly the most &#8220;on-trend&#8221; type of fencing at the moment is vertical timber panelling which can either have a gap between or be stacked together. It looks great when treated with a stain or using a few shades of timber to create a more dramatic effect.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>11. Horizontal pine slats<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Give your patio an intimate feeling with some horizontal screening. For example, use up pieces of leftover pine from other projects.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>12. Woven privacy fence<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>More homeowners are constructing privacy fences featuring unusual designs rather than standard planks. For example, a woven design is becoming more popular.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>13. Uneven screen designs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Another contemporary trend is towards uneven screen designs and uneven heights. Things like interlinked slats also add interest and dynamism to an otherwise plain fence.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>14. Lattice privacy screens<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Basic lattice is very affordable from gardening and building supply shops, and you can easily spruce it up with a coat of paint. The beauty of a lattice is that it offers privacy but still allows in lots of light. Fill your lattice with gorgeous greenery, such as jasmine. You might also look at fast-growing vines like trumpet vine. But remember their fast-paced growth means more maintenance will be needed.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33038\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33038\" style=\"width: 293px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33038\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework.jpg\" alt=\"privacy-fence-latticework\" width=\"293\" height=\"293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework.jpg 293w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052335\/privacy-fence-latticework-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 293px) 85vw, 293px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33038\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/JFpbSXeSq3A?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by Jennifer Marcus on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div\r\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"hustle-ui hustle-inline hustle-palette--5ee70537d13573_20650904 hustle_module_id_14 module_id_14   hustle-size--custom\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tdata-id=\"14\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-render-id=\"2\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-tracking=\"enabled\"\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-intro=\"no_animation\"\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-sub-type=\"shortcode\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"opacity: 0;\"\r\n\t\t\t><div class=\"hustle-inline-content\"><div class=\"hustle-info hustle-info--compact\"><div class=\"hustle-layout\"><div class=\"hustle-content\"><div class=\"hustle-content-wrap\"><div class=\"hustle-group-title\"><span class=\"hustle-title\">Find a Tasker for your next home project!<\/span><\/div><div class=\"hustle-cta-container\"><a class=\"hustle-button hustle-button-cta \" href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/post-task\/\" target=\"_self\" data-cta-type=\"cta\">Post a task<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h3><strong>15.

And it looks gorgeous against the white gravel, too.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32481\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32481\" style=\"width: 1379px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32481\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers.jpg\" alt=\"privacy-fence-flowers\" width=\"1379\" height=\"2068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers.jpg 1379w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052540\/privacy-fence-flowers-1200x1800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32481\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/3bg48Ik6cqg?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditShareLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by Jakob S\u00f8by on Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>18.

Grey horizontal panelling<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Or if you&#8217;re after something a little more muted, perhaps grey is something that will work with your home.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>21. Black is the new\u2026 black<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s one of the most popular colours in privacy fencing and black is certainly enjoying its moment in the spotlight. Black fencing contrasts beautifully with green and gold foliage. And it creates a mesmerising, moody backdrop for your plants. It also looks amazing with whitewashed decking and natural timber furniture.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>22. Add a gazebo<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Simple, but always deluxe in appearance. A gazebo offers plenty of privacy and with its drapes for walls, quickly converts to a pool change room.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>23. Panel style metal fencing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Worried about dampness or just want something a little more modern than timber? You can get really great quality metal privacy fences that look fabulous. Contemporary and stylish, black metal fencing works just as well as black timber slats do. Visually, you can hardly tell the difference.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>24. Fence kits or pre-built panels<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You may not want to start completely from scratch, and that\u2019s where kits or pre-built panels are especially useful. The uniformity of the materials and the precision cutting means frame kits appear more professional than DIY fences. Purchasing a pre-built frame kit still allows you to choose what material you will infill it with. For example, cedar, pine, cypress, bamboo, or a wonderfully exotic kind of wood for a conversation piece.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>25. Unique DIY privacy fence<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Be creative, break rules and try something different. For a unique DIY privacy fence, you can repurpose pallets, or even old doors and windows. Either attach pallets or other reclaimed materials to an existing fence or railing with cable ties. Then extend the fence height by stacking more pallets up. Paint it in your favourite colours or to suit your existing d\u00e9cor. Or why not paint a mural?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33043\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33043\" style=\"width: 451px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33043\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052333\/privacy-fence-mural.jpg\" alt=\"privacy-fence-mural\" width=\"451\" height=\"339\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-33043\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/brown-wooden-planks-889839\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by W W from Pexels<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div\r\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"hustle-ui hustle-inline hustle-palette--5ee70537d13573_20650904 hustle_module_id_14 module_id_14   hustle-size--custom\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\tdata-id=\"14\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-render-id=\"4\"\r\n\t\t\tdata-tracking=\"enabled\"\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-intro=\"no_animation\"\r\n\t\t\t\tdata-sub-type=\"shortcode\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"opacity: 0;\"\r\n\t\t\t><div class=\"hustle-inline-content\"><div class=\"hustle-info hustle-info--compact\"><div class=\"hustle-layout\"><div class=\"hustle-content\"><div class=\"hustle-content-wrap\"><div class=\"hustle-group-title\"><span class=\"hustle-title\">Find a Tasker for your next home project!<\/span><\/div><div class=\"hustle-cta-container\"><a class=\"hustle-button hustle-button-cta \" href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/post-task\/\" target=\"_self\" data-cta-type=\"cta\">Post a task<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h3><strong>26. Landscaping around fencing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Just putting up a privacy fence isn\u2019t the end of the process though. \u00a0Make the most of the space by decorating the area and allow your personality to shine through. Add a modern touch with hanging potted plants from posts or wall planters. Or add landscape lighting either inside or outside the privacy fence. You might also add hooks and hangers for ornaments or tools. Or add lattice just to the top of your fence for training plants. Don\u2019t forget you can also use smaller sections of fences to create partial barriers for zones.<\/p>\n<p>Other possibilities include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stepping stones,<\/li>\n<li>Gorgeous arrangements of native plants,<\/li>\n<li>Creatively using gravel (for example to create a pathway),<\/li>\n<li>Water features,<\/li>\n<li>Comfy outdoor furniture,<\/li>\n<li>And a patio umbrella.<\/li>\n<li>So have some fun creating your personalised\u2014and now wonderfully private\u2014outdoor sanctuary!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_33090\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-33090\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33090\" src=\"https:\/\/airtasker-seo-wordpress-blog-assets-prod.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/24052329\/privacy-ideas-native.jpg\" alt=\"Luxurious contemporary three-story wood siding home exterior.
