Fence Types We Install in Wayne County
The first step to selecting the right fence involves knowledge of the types of wire fences and the types of fencing styles. Let’s take a look at some of the top choices we fit for Wayne County residents:
Underground / Electric Pet Fence
The most common choice of veterinary pet containment. The radio frequency signal is sent through an underground wire that can send the pet signals to and from the receiver collar on your pet. Most residential properties suit it, it is invisible, cheap and effective. No permits needed in most municipalities in Wayne County.
In-Ground Wire Fence
A more robust version of the standard underground system, and is generally employed when the property is bigger and it may provide a considerable level of landscaping activity for a large-scale outdoor affair. Perfect for the larger lots in Canton Township, Plymouth, etc.
Above-Ground Wireless Fence
Wireless alternative with a central transmitter to form the circle. Easy to install, without digging. Ideal for those renting or owning their homes and looking to secure a temporary housing solution for their pet.
Traditional Residential Fencing (Physical)
Home owners who are interested in a space demarcation can get installed:
- Chain-link Fencing – Hardwearing, low-maintainable, inexpensive. Found throughout communities in Downriver areas and Detroit
- Wood privacy fences – Absolute visual privacy. Popular in Dearborn, Livonia and Westland neighborhoods
