fence elements (2,225 offers*)

In most cases, a fence consists of fence posts, connecting elements and a garden gate. The elements can be made of different materials and serve different purposes. You use fences to demarcate your property, as a privacy screen or to fence in animals. Depending on the goal, different features are required. Overall, your fence should be stable and weatherproof.

In addition to the fence panels, you will usually need posts to connect the visible panels. The number of elements depends on the length of the desired fence as well as the width of the respective elements. The posts are either driven directly into the ground, set in concrete, or stabilized in the ground with anchors.
Once you have decided on the type of post you want, find out how they are anchored into the ground and what material is required. If the posts are not installed sturdily enough, the fence is at risk of leaning or even tipping over under wind or weather conditions.
If you want to integrate a garden gate, plan a shorter distance between the posts for the appropriate place as a frame for the gate.

If you want to renew or replace your fence, as is often the case after storm damage, you buy individual elements. Ideally, you should ask the manufacturer directly whether there are elements for your fence model to supplement or replace. You can then find these elements directly at Preis.de in the online comparison and quickly see the best price. Pay attention to the correct dimensions and individual components so that you can install the new parts quickly and easily.

You can choose between different materials depending on your preferences. It is important that they are weatherproof and UV rays do not affect them.
Wooden fences are very natural and can usually be painted or varnished individually. So it's up to you to decide whether you prefer the natural wood shade and protect the fence with a transparent protective stain or wood oil, or whether you want the fence to be coloured. Pressure impregnated wood is more resistant to insects and weathering. You should not install the wood completely without protection, otherwise the fence will quickly become dilapidated and you will have to replace it. Larch and spruce are popular hardwoods for outdoor use because they are harder than other woods and therefore less sensitive.
Plastic fencing is very easy to maintain and comes in many varieties. Look for a UV-resistant plastic so that the material does not become porous or lighten in the sun. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or PP (polypropylene) are well suited for this.
WPC (Wood Plastic Composites) is a composite material made of wood fibres and plastic. The wood content is between 30 and 90 percent, depending on the manufacturer. WPC fences are extremely durable and retain the natural look of the wood fibres.
Metal fences are very sturdy and weather resistant. They also usually have a very sleek, cool look. Choose them with coating or in a minimalist metal design. There are now also plenty of alternatives to the classic lattice fence. Aluminium and galvanised steel are the most popular metals here.
Climbable fence elements fit wonderfully into your garden. You choose climbing plants that climb up the trellis and decorate it with greenery. This way you can integrate the fence into your garden design.
Fence panels made of willow, wood or bamboo decorate your fence. An angular metal fence is rounded off in this decorative way, so that it fits even better into the green of your outdoor area.
Material combinations allow you to choose the right fence for your property in terms of appearance, height, width and installation. For example, a metal fence with wooden elements combines a modern style with the natural elements of the natural product.

Privacy fences consist of walls of different widths that you mount on posts. They are usually at least two metres high, so that no view of the fenced area is possible. Alternatively, you can attach fixed tarpaulins or privacy strips to your existing garden fence.
Privacy screens are also suitable for your balcony. This way you can sit outside undisturbed and have your outdoor area to yourself. For comfortable sitting, you can find balcony furniture in a price comparison here.
Popular privacy fences are slat fences, where long vertical boards are staggered in two rows. This allows light to pass through without making it possible to see through.
A gabion fence is also excellent as a privacy screen. There, metal cages are filled with stones and placed on top of each other. The design is modern and solid.

For the assembly you need tools to screw the elements and to fasten the fence posts in the ground. Find out about the equipment you need before you start. Sometimes suitable sets of tools are recommended for the assembly. Often hardware stores offer tool rental if you want to build the fence yourself.
First, place the posts in the proper locations and align them correctly. You choose the distances so that your fence elements fit between them. Then you connect the elements. This varies depending on the type of fence. Make sure that the elements are stable and firmly mounted.
