Deer and Garden Fences

Deer and garden fences with tall posts, mesh or wire and strong gates that protect plants, orchards and vegetable beds from browsing animals.

Deer can clear a short fence with ease and eat a garden to the ground overnight. A deer and garden fence uses height, mesh and good gates to keep animals out of vegetable beds, orchards, shrubs and flower gardens. Owners in Nashville and across the surrounding counties choose these fences to protect plantings in suburban yards and rural properties alike.

We begin with a Free Estimate and walk the garden or orchard, talking about the animals you see, the layout and how you enter. We plan tall posts, usually in the range of seven to eight feet for deer, and select mesh, woven wire or high-tensile options. The bottom edge is secured against rabbits and diggers, and gates are sized for wheelbarrows and equipment. We discuss visibility and neighbor concerns. Deer fences work when they are tall and tight, and when there are no easy gaps. We plan the gate so it closes snugly, secure the bottom against rabbits and make the mesh visible enough that deer see it. If you do not want a tall fence all around, we can protect only the beds or trees that matter most.

Height beats jumping

Deer are strong jumpers, so tall posts and mesh are the main defense. We plan the height with you.

Mesh and wire choices

Black mesh nearly disappears from view, woven wire is more rigid and high-tensile wire suits larger areas.

Secure the bottom

Rabbits and diggers go under, so the bottom edge is staked or buried to close the gap.

Gates that work

Wide, latching gates for tools and carts keep the garden easy to use.

Questions

Deer and Garden Fences FAQ

How tall should a deer fence be?

Tall enough to discourage jumping, often around seven to eight feet, though conditions vary. We discuss options.

Is deer netting strong enough?

Quality mesh works well for many gardens, and heavier wire may suit areas with heavy pressure.

Will a deer fence be an eyesore?

Black mesh and thin posts fade from view. We plan the look with you.

Do I need a gate?

Yes, and sized for how you work. We plan the width and latch.

Can I fence only part of the yard?

Yes. Many people protect a vegetable garden, orchard or foundation plantings.
