Hello Guys,

My architect just sent me my house fence details. Meanwhile, There are mixed feelings as regards whether the fence should be fully closed or partially closed. I am actually of the opinion that fence should not be fully closed with blocks. I like fence that has the upper section laid with some iron works.
However, some people are of the opinion that the house will be too open to outsiders to see through the inside of the house.
Kindly find attached the fence 3D design and give your opinion about it.

Please indicate whether the fence should be completely closed or partial wt iron works (As indicated in the drawing) and indicate your reasons for your option.

Thanks a lot.

Am not a big fan of all wall prison height fence but this days it doesn't look like we have option/choices. I still remember those good old days where most fences are halfway wall then the other halfup iron allowing fresh air in and good view but this days it's like exposing yourself. I have all wall fence in my house right now for added security (only God protect) but if am to do something that's my choice or if my house is in an all fenced round estate, I won't do the all wall fence. The picture you have up there is pretty but you know your area better than us. If you're fencing for security and privacy then you should do an all wall fence with some nice open design at the top. You can also check out the fence and gate thread for more option and design.

Where is this house by the way? I mean the house you intend to fence.

Thank u Prince for your input.
The house is in Ikorodu.

cool! Well, u know how naija is, you don't want something that will draw attention to you. I will say go with the flow. You can do something close or similar to the fences in your neighborhood then add some design with opening but not anything too open.

Prince has said it all, @ abbyode, you can get more ideas from the 'fence and gates in pictures and prices' thread. Please look for it in the bulk property ads section (only God knows why the mods decided to quarantine that thread?)
