Are you concerned about the safety and security of your beloved pets? Worried about them escaping or getting hurt while roaming freely in your yard?

Look no further than wood fencing! Despite potential objections about the durability or attractiveness of wood, it is actually the perfect solution for pet owners.

With the right type of wood and a well-designed fence, you can provide your furry companions with the freedom they crave, while keeping them safe and secure.

Let’s explore the benefits of wood fencing for pet owners in this informative article.

Key Takeaways

  • Incorporate pet-friendly landscaping options in the yard, such as non-toxic plants and avoiding thorny bushes or plants with small berries.
  • Wood fences offer a classic and timeless look while providing long-term maintenance benefits.
  • Wood fences provide a secure enclosure, allowing pets to explore and play without getting lost or injured.
  • Choose the right type of wood for pets, such as cedar, redwood, pressure-treated wood, or composite wood, and regularly clean and seal to prolong the wood’s lifespan.

Enhancing Safety and Security for Your Pets

You’ll want to make sure your pets are safe and secure by enhancing the safety of your wood fencing. One way to do this is by incorporating pet-friendly landscaping options into your yard. Choose plants that are non-toxic to pets and avoid thorny bushes or plants with small berries that could be harmful if ingested.

Creating a designated area for your pets within your yard can also help keep them safe. This can be achieved by installing pet gates into your wood fence design. These gates provide a barrier that keeps your pets contained while still allowing them to enjoy the outdoors. They can be easily opened and closed, providing you with convenient access to your pets whenever you need it.

In addition to enhancing safety, wood fencing also offers durability and attractiveness for pet owners. The sturdy construction of wood fences ensures that they can withstand the wear and tear of active pets. Plus, the natural beauty of wood adds a touch of elegance to your yard, creating a welcoming space for both you and your furry friends.

So, by enhancing the safety and security of your wood fencing, you not only protect your pets but also create a beautiful and durable boundary for your yard.

Durability and Attractiveness of Wood Fencing

When it comes to durability and attractiveness, wood fences are hard to beat. They not only provide a classic and timeless look to your property but also offer long-term maintenance benefits. With proper care, wood fences can last for decades, making them a cost-effective option for pet owners. Plus, the natural beauty of wood adds charm and warmth to any outdoor space.

But the benefits of wood fencing go beyond just aesthetics. One of the key advantages is its low environmental impact. Unlike other fencing materials that require extensive manufacturing processes, wood is a renewable resource that can be sustainably harvested. This means you can have a beautiful fence without harming the environment.

In addition, wood fences offer a sense of security and privacy for your pets. The sturdy construction of wood panels ensures that your furry friends can roam freely in the yard without the worry of them escaping or being harmed by external threats. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe within the confines of a durable and attractive wood fence.

So, when it comes to choosing a fencing option for your pet, consider the durability, attractiveness, and low environmental impact of wood fences. With a wood fence, you can provide your pets with the freedom to roam without worry.

Freedom to Roam Without Worry

With a durable and attractive wood fence, your furry friends can freely roam without worry. Creating a pet-friendly backyard is essential for their happiness and safety. Wood fencing offers numerous benefits for pet owners, making it the perfect choice for your four-legged companions.

Firstly, wood fencing provides a secure enclosure, ensuring that your pets stay within the boundaries of your property. This gives them the freedom to explore and play without the risk of getting lost or injured. Additionally, wood fences are sturdy and can withstand the antics of even the most energetic pets, giving you peace of mind knowing that they are safe.

Moreover, wood fencing adds a touch of natural beauty to your backyard, creating a warm and welcoming environment for both you and your pets. It blends seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your property. Your furry friends will surely appreciate the pleasant surroundings as they frolic and relax in their outdoor haven.

By choosing the right type of wood for your pets, you can ensure their utmost comfort and safety. Transitioning into the subsequent section, let’s explore how different wood options can cater to your specific pet needs.

Choosing the Right Type of Wood for Your Pets

For your furry friends, it’s important to select the appropriate type of wood that caters to their specific needs. When choosing a wood fence for your pets, consider the following pet-friendly wood options:

  • Cedar: Not only does cedar have a pleasant aroma, but it also naturally repels pests like fleas and ticks, keeping your pets safe and comfortable.

  • Redwood: Known for its durability and resistance to rot, redwood is a great choice for pet owners who want a long-lasting fence that can withstand their pets’ playful antics.

  • Pressure-treated wood: This type of wood is chemically treated to resist decay and insect damage, making it a popular choice for pet owners looking for low-maintenance options.

  • Composite wood: Made from a combination of wood fibers and recycled plastic, composite wood is a pet-friendly alternative that is resistant to scratches and stains, ensuring your fence stays in top shape.

When considering maintenance considerations, keep in mind that regular cleaning and sealing of the wood will help prolong its lifespan and maintain its appearance. By selecting a pet-friendly wood option and properly maintaining it, you can create a safe and inviting space for your furry companions to enjoy.

Now that you know how to choose the right type of wood for your pets, let’s move on to designing the perfect wood fence for your furry companions.

Designing the Perfect Wood Fence for Your Furry Companions

Creating a safe and inviting space for your furry companions to enjoy is easily achieved by designing the perfect fence using the right type of wood.

When designing a wood fence for your pets, it is important to consider their specific needs and behaviors. One key aspect to focus on is incorporating pet-friendly features.

For example, you can add a small pet door within the fence, allowing your pets to freely move in and out of the designated area. This gives them the freedom to explore while still ensuring their safety.

Additionally, incorporating gates and barriers can help create separate zones within your yard. This is especially useful if you have multiple pets or if you want to keep certain areas off-limits. By installing gates or barriers, you can easily control your pets’ access to certain parts of your property. This not only keeps them safe but also helps maintain a well-organized space.

With the right design and features, your wood fence can provide the perfect balance of security and comfort for your furry companions.

Conclusion

In conclusion, wood fencing provides the perfect solution for pet owners looking to enhance safety and security for their furry friends. With its durability and attractiveness, it not only keeps your pets safe but also adds charm to your outdoor space.

Did you know that 85% of pet owners feel more at ease knowing their pets are protected by a wood fence?

Great to work with a supplier that actually bids a job, completes it on time and on budget. Terry and his crew were a pleasure to deal with and installed a great product on a very challenging area. Would definitely recommend and use again

The service and the work that was done was exceptional. We needed to replace three very old (and very heavy) garage doors in a home that was built in 1960. There were a number of challenges along the way and each one was met professionally and in a timely manner. Lisa was an excellent communicator and highly responsive. Kevin did an extraordinary job with a fairly involved installation. His 'can do' attitude was very refreshing and reassuring. As noted, the final result was terrific. The pricing was VERY reasonable and very fair. The install was completed two days ago and I have already received compliments from the neighbors!

I called Terry to help with a damaged gate and masonry column. He came out the same day to help diagnose the issue and offered a sensible solution. He got the gate system repaired quickly and I was back up and running. I will definitely be calling Terry in the future. Thank you,

Excellent door and gate company. I would give them 10 stars. I had extremely tight tolerances and Terry and his crew engineered the gate down to the inch. Top of the line materials and great service. Highly recommend.

On Oct. 31 my electric gate stopped working and I called Alpha Gate and Door and talked to Lisa. She was great and based on my symptoms said she thought it was the battery and she would send Kealan out the next day. He came and replaced the battery with a 12 v 55ah battery. I asked him to rehang my reflector light on my neighbors new fence so the motion sensor would work. It had worked fine prior to that being taken down. He did that and it worked for a minute and then stopped. He rewired it and it worked once and he left. The next day I noticed the sensor was not working but I didn’t really care because my dog is too small to trigger it. I was charged $448 -$169 for the service call, $249 for the battery and $30 to rewire the sensor. I work exclusively from home as an attorney and never even use the gate during the week. A few weeks later the gate stopped operation completely and I called on Dec. 6. Lisa said she would send Kealan out. He called me and I said the gate would not open at all, the sensor was not working and the sensor was making a nonstop buzzing noise. He arrived fairly late in the day and I saw him pull into my driveway but he did not come to my door and went straight to the gate. I immediately went out there and I saw when he opened the cover that the battery charger lights were not on. He was in a very bad mood and starting ripping the battery out and said I needed a new battery. I said I guess it was because the battery charger wasn’t plugged in. I was not mad about it because that can happen to anyone. He got really mad at that point, I guess because I knew what had happened. He demanded to know whether I had unplugged it, grabbed a huge battery that would not even fit in my unit, then declared the charger had “allegedly” not been plugged in. As he was trying to force the battery in and was slamming everything around, I asked him if he had a smaller battery. He said no, it was whomever installed my gate opener’s fault because the antenna was on the left and they were usually on the right. He continued to try to force it but could not get the cover on. So he gave up and said he would come back Monday with a smaller battery. I assumed the sensor was not working because the battery had died. I heard nothing from anyone the following Monday and had had it so I called Lisa and yelled and told her the way Kealan had behaved and when was the battery actually going to be installed. She said she would talk to Kealan and I said do you have anybody else who is not a jackass who could come instead. She said she would investigate and call me back. She never called me back and apparently the next day around lunch Kealan snuck onto my property, did not tell me he was there, and put in another battery and texted me the gate was now working. I went outside to try it and the remote was not working at all. I have programmed remotes many times (I have done a lot of products liability work and handled cases with complex machinery failures and deposed a lot of engineers so I am not unfamiliar with this type of equipment) and checked it and the receiver was getting the signal from the transmitter but the control board was not opening the gate.So I called Lisa, explained he had come but not told me he was there, and that the remote was not opening the gate. I also apologized for yelling at her the day before because it was not her fault. She said she would tell him. After that call I remembered there is a reset button on the Patriot control board so I went out and pushed it and that caused the remote to work so I called Lisa and said it was working. The new battery is smaller than the one he had originally put in and retails for about $95. The motion sensor still does not work, I have done jumping jacks in front of of it to know avail. I am not bothering to call again about that because Kealan would probably get really mad again. He does NOT like his competence put into question. You decide if $249 is a fair markup on a $95 battery.

We are very happy with the service we received from Alpha Gate & Door. We had a 20-year old gate that stopped working. Upon our first call, they were quick to respond, provide an estimate & schedule the work. The tech was very thorough and at the end explained all of the updates. I know that if I ever need anything else, I will call them.

I highly recommend Alpha Gate & Door Company! The entire process was incredibly quick and professional! I spoke with Lisa (she’s amazing and extremely knowledgeable) on Tuesday and she came out Wednesday with a recommendation to replace the gate opener that was faulty and couldn’t handle the weight of my gate. I received the reasonable quote the same day and their technician, Keelan, was at my house on Friday of the SAME WEEK to install. Keelan was just as courteous and professional as Lisa and did an amazing job! The install was perfect and pristine! I’ve tried working with other companies and honestly they are hands down the best! If there were 10 stars available, I would give them 10!
Thank you Alpha team!

I highly recommend Alpha Gate & Door Co.for your gate repair or installation needs. We were in need of a replacement system for or driveway gate. Lisa immediately understood my situation and had a perfect recommendation for a replacement. She emailed me a detailed proposal and followed up with a visit to our site. In a timely manner the technician, Kealin and his assistant George, professionally installed a complete Patriot 1 system that looks great and works perfectly. I am very pleased with all aspects of their service.

Alpha Gate & Door recently replaced our 3-gate system thats used by over 250 residents and visitors on a daily basis.

Terry was excellent in guiding us from the first visit to the final inspection, including his experiences on what to expect and where any likely issues would occur. With a large property, that was critical to avoiding problems that could pop up.

The crews, clean up and invoicing were all done professionally.

We would strongly recommend Alpha Gate & Door for your gate access needs.

Called on a Saturday morning around 0800 and left a message about issue I was having. I received a call back a few minutes later and was ask to send some pictures of the gate. Once I sent over the pictures, I got another call around 1200, asking if they could come by today as a crew was finished early and could swing by to fix. The gate was fixed by 3:00 same day. Thanks for the quick response and repair. I wasn't expecting that on a Saturday morning. So far so good.
