A home is a place where the child should feel the safest. A secured backyard is essential to ensure fun and safety when raising kids. Filling holes in lawn ruts and holes and removing thorny plants like rose bushes is important, but more essential is selecting the right fence for the backyard. Implementing a fence that protects your child and restricts them from wandering outside is a great idea. A semi privacy vinyl fence is highly recommended for households with small children. Duramax Fences are aesthetically pleasing and can increase your home’s curb appeal. If your kids are adventurous and exploratory, then a good fence can make the backyard a safe haven for the child.
Install the right fence
Keeping the child safe is not only about preventing accidents, but you also need to take into consideration prying eyes from passers-by. Stranger abductions are common worldwide, and without a strong semi privacy vinyl fence, the kids might start wandering, exploring, and inviting danger. Child abduction is widespread, and sometimes it happens even in the safety of your own front or backyard. This is something no parent wants to experience, which is why the need for the right fencing is essential. A good fence offers the kids a secure, confined space and prevents intruders from entering your private space. A semi-privacy fence is a perfect balance between airflow and privacy. This kind of fence is ideal when you have kids around as they provide seclusion to homeowners needing privacy. However, the semi-privacy fence will not make you feel completely isolated. This fence offers minimal visibility yet at the same time creates a space for openness and comfort.
Playing and staying safe inside the garden
As a parent, you keep chemicals and toxins away from the kids, but what about fences? Washing the fences with chemicals and detergents is a strict no-no. Some toxins stay behind, and if you have small mischievous kids running around and chewing the fences, then the contaminants can dangerously affect their health. That’s the reason why a vinyl fence is most recommended. A vinyl fence is virtually low maintenance and fade-resistant. Unlike wooden or metal fences, vinyl fences need not be treated with chemicals to retain their shine and luster. Just wash the vinyl fence with a garden hose to remove the dirt and debris.
Additionally, the backyard of a house or the front lawn is filled with poisonous plants, which we often don’t realize. Unfortunately, we realize the poisonous nature of the colorful plants around us until it’s too late. Either remove these plants or install a small fence to keep the kids away from them. Keeping an eye on the child while exploring the garden is not always possible, but investing in a good quality, non-toxic, lead-free fence from Duramax is worth it!
Get flat rail fences
A flat rail fence is a better alternative to a speared fence for protecting your child from the outside world and securing your property. The speared fences give the property a vintage and noble look, but the kids might injure themselves by attempting a jump and trying to touch the spikes or by climbing the fence playfully. Therefore, it is wise to install a vinyl flat rail fence that accentuates the property’s individuality and keeps the kids safe.
Invest in a latching fence
Keeping the fence gate closed is an essential tip we miss. The closed gate will keep your child safe inside the property, as kids usually try running out of the house into the busy streets. If you want to know the exact place to have the fence gate, then talking to the experts might help you decide on the aesthetics as well as the alignment that will protect the property. Moreover, investing in a latch is a great way to prevent the kids from randomly opening and closing the gate. Placing the latch high up is ideal for making the lock system unreachable for the kids. If you want to increase the security further, implement two latches on the fence or get a key lock, which makes the fence line sturdy and safe and keeps the trespassers away.
Get a semi-privacy fence
A vinyl fence is ideal as it’s difficult for the kids to climb it as there is no foothold to gain leverage. Install fences that are 6 feet tall, as they guarantee your child’s safety and ensure your peace of mind when you have to leave the kids unattended in the backyard. Semi-privacy fences are perfect to ensure your child is safe and additionally there are fewer distractions from the busy streets. A semi-privacy vinyl fence keeps your child inside and strangers, stray animals, and intruders out.
Splinter-free material
Wooden fences are a dream come true for Americans, but they aren’t great if you have kids around. Wooden fences break, and the splinters can cause severe injuries. Installing a wooden fence in the backyard is detrimental as they have exposed screws that might hurt your kids. Rather choose vinyl fences from Duramax. We have fences with a strong routing and interlocking system that offers a sturdy and strong fence line. The routed and interlocked members of the fence panels keep the fencing parts from falling apart. Duramax Fences will hold up for years, while fence lines with external brackets and unsightly screws tend to warp, crack and sag within a few months.
