10 Privacy Fence Ideas for Your Yard
Emily Bell 6/10
Needing a solution to hide her “ugly side yard,” @thedecormama built this lovely privacy fence and planter in one! The horizontal slats feature engineered wood siding cut into strips with a table saw. And the potted plants offer a delightful finishing touch, mounted to the fence with these clever pot holders.

Corrugated Metal Privacy Fence
For an affordable privacy fence, consider corrugated metal. It’s a lot more budget-friendly than wood in these times of high lumber prices. Plus, the zinc coating of galvanized corrugated metal helps it resist rust and weathering.
Just remember: The higher the gauge, the thinner the metal. Look for no more than 29 gauge for a sturdy fence. This wood and corrugated metal fence from @mycountrylife_idaho offers that casual farmhouse vibe.

Steel Privacy Fence
For absolute privacy and security, it doesn’t get much better than a gap-free, solid steel fence, like this one from @durabond.steel.fence.supply. Steel fences last for decades and are essentially maintenance-free.
To keep your steel fence looking new, Durabond says, “Simply hose it off as seasons change, and take care to clean out the bottom rail channel to avoid build-up of dust or other materials.” That’s easy!
