That’s a good point that the fence could be a cool addition to your house instead of just a safety feature. I like the idea of having a fence that looks super nice and is strong enough to keep my kids and my dog in my yard.

You really did a good job at showing how horizontal board fences could make your yard look bigger.

If I can find a fence contractor in the area that can arrange something like this for us, I’ll hire them right away.
