Types of metal fences: how to choose (3D panels, louvered, profiled)
A metal fence lasts for decades, so choosing the right type matters. Here are the three most popular options and when each works best.
3D panel fences
Rigidly welded panels with stiffening ridges. Strong, partly see-through (keep the view) and economical — the most popular choice for homes and yards.
Louvered fences
Horizontal slats give privacy while letting air and light through. A modern, elegant solution.
Profiled-sheet fences
Fully private and windproof — good against street noise and prying eyes, economical over long runs.
- Maximum privacy — profiled sheet or louvers
- Keep the view — 3D panels
- All galvanised and powder-coated against rust
A fence lifespan is set by the coating, not just thickness — a galvanised, painted fence lasts 25+ years.
