Semi-Privacy Fences

At Drover Fence Company, our semi-privacy fencing offers a variety of styles designed to give you the perfect balance between seclusion and airflow. Typically built from solid materials like wood, these fences help block outside views while still allowing light and air to pass through. Semi-privacy fences are usually taller than other types of fencing, ranging anywhere from 4 to 8 feet—or even higher—depending on how much privacy you want for your space.

The main goal of a privacy fence is to create a comfortable barrier that keeps your outdoor areas shielded from neighbors, passersby, and nearby properties. They’re a popular choice for residential yards, helping to establish peaceful, private spaces where you can relax.

Before starting your fence project, it’s important to check in with your local building codes and any neighborhood association guidelines. Some areas have rules about fence height, materials, or styles, so you may need a permit before installation.

At Drover Fence Company, we build semi-privacy fences using a range of durable materials, including wood and chain link with privacy enhancements. No matter your style or needs, we’re here to help you create the perfect outdoor retreat!

Chain Link Semi-Privacy Fence

Chain link fences with privacy slats are a smart, budget-friendly solution for adding semi-privacy to your property. By inserting slats—available in a variety of colors and materials—into the chain link mesh, you can create partial visual screening while still allowing for plenty of airflow. This makes them an excellent choice for backyards, commercial properties, and industrial sites where you need a balance of security, visibility, and privacy.

One of the biggest perks of this option is its durability and low maintenance. Galvanized or vinyl-coated chain link fencing is built to resist rust and corrosion, giving you long-lasting performance with minimal upkeep. Plus, with a range of slat colors and styles available, it’s easy to customize the look to complement your property while staying within budget—a great alternative to full privacy fencing.

"Stepped" Method

Stepped fences are designed to follow the contour of your land in a series of level sections, creating a “stepped” appearance. This approach is ideal for properties with significant elevation changes, as it maintains a consistent height for each fence panel while accommodating the slope of the terrain.

"Straight Line" Method

Fences built using the Straight Line method are installed in a perfectly level line, regardless of changes in elevation. This method works best on flat terrain and provides a clean, traditional look, ensuring that all fence panels are perfectly aligned and level.

"Follow Grade" Method

The method of “Following the Grade” allows your fence to contour closely to the natural slope of your land, maintaining a smooth, continuous line that hugs the ground. This technique is ideal for gently rolling landscapes, as it provides an aesthetically pleasing and secure boundary that adjusts seamlessly to the terrain.

"Line-of-Sight" Method

The Line-of-Sight method is used to ensure unobstructed views, maintaining a straight and level top line regardless of the land’s curves. This method is perfect for those who prioritize a seamless visual flow and a clean, uniform fence line.
