Buckingham Township covers a lot of ground, from farmland to larger residential properties, and includes Lahaska, home of Peddler’s Village. If you own land here, you probably have more fence line to think about than the average homeowner. 76 FENCE BucksMont helps Buckingham owners plan fences that work across bigger properties without looking out of place.
Big properties, long lines
On a larger lot, the fence isn’t just around the patio. It might run along the road, around a pasture or down a long driveway. That changes what makes sense.
Split rail
Split rail marks a line and suits open land. Add mesh to keep pets in.
Board fence
Farm and horse fence for pastures and paddocks.
Ornamental steel
Steel for a formal front line or entry.
Deer fencing
Tall — often 7 to 8 feet — for gardens, orchards and young trees.
Driveway gates
With longer driveways, many Buckingham owners want a gate at the entrance. An automatic driveway gate adds security and a clear front entry, and it can be paired with stone pillars or a matching fence line.
We’ll talk through swing vs. slide, how wide you need it and where power needs to run.
Ground conditions in Buckingham
Central Bucks has plenty of shale and rock, and a long fence run will find it. Our crew plans for that. Posts go below the frost line, commonly around 30 to 36 inches in southeast PA, with local code having the final say. Lower ground near creeks can be clay with a high water table, so we watch drainage in those spots.
Older properties often have stone walls and mature trees along the lines. We plan around them rather than through them.
Matching the look of the land
Buckingham’s farmland is a big part of its character, and a lot of owners want a fence that looks like it’s always been there. White board fence and split rail fit open ground. Black steel or aluminum suits a more formal entry near the house. You don’t have to pick one style for the whole property. A common approach is a more finished fence near the house and a simpler style out along the fields. Think about what you’ll see from the road, from the porch and from the kitchen window. That’s where the choice matters most. We’ll walk it with you and talk through where each style makes sense, and where you might not need a fence at all.
Deer on open land
With farmland and woods all around, Buckingham gardens see a lot of deer. A standard fence won’t keep them out. For a garden or orchard, deer fencing needs to be tall — often 7 to 8 feet. Many owners fence just the planted areas instead of the whole property.
