If you are worried that passersby can see into the house from the sidewalk, you may want to consider building a fence. Shutters are one solution, but they often block the view of a landscaped garden. A garden fence, by contrast, quickly solves the problem of privacy and street noise. We have collected 63 garden fence ideas to help you choose the right material and design.
Fence ideas using various materials

We often think of garden walls as confining, but the right design can avoid that effect. The height of the wall can vary, different materials can be combined, and the result can frame the landscape beautifully. The fence should also be coordinated with the style of the house. Glass elements feel modern, wood is elegant and timeless, and traditional concrete creates a sense of security and stability. A bamboo fence fits perfectly in a Japanese-style garden. Tall trees, vines, and low perennials can also act as decorative privacy screens.
