Main advantages

The decorative compatibility of even an unpretentiously designed fence will perfectly decorate all types of houses known today, based on a frame base, wooden details, metal and glass structures.

Design ideas for decorating a brick fence amaze people with their quantity and economical consumption of money. To build a chic fence, the owner must work correctly with materials and have a rich imagination.

Protection of the site from possible threats. High-strength fencing will protect the private area from unauthorized entry of intruders. It will effectively prevent the accidental entry of vehicles driven by a drunk driver, the ingress of large-sized construction equipment and hide the landscape from prying eyes.

You should know that due to the specific nature of the brick, the occurrence of errors is almost impossible to correct. When choosing the dimensions and shape of the wall, it is necessary to think over many important nuances and ensure the most accurate adherence to technological instructions when performing laying work.

The main disadvantage, due to which a do-it-yourself brick fence is underestimated, is the high price of consumables, as well as a too high level of construction complexity.

But today there are ways by which the cost of a brick fence is rapidly decreasing. It allows you to create a full-fledged structure, using the thickness of the rows in half or one quarter of the block.

Construction stages

All the work that professional builders carry out during the preparatory processes and assembly of the structure is divided into four stages:

• In a specialized company or on the corresponding Internet resource, the design style of the fence is selected.
• The documentation of the estimate is carefully formed, where the cost of consumables and services of qualified craftsmen is calculated, after which the construction of the pier is designed.
• A trench is dug to a certain depth, where a fairly reliable foundation is built for a brick fence.
• On its structure, blocks are laid that make up the main structure of the supporting pillars and enclosing walls.

There is a correct installation of decorative elements, lattice products, protective parts, lighting fixtures. The surface is treated with substances that slow down the loss of a characteristic shade and the destruction of fired clay.

Then the previously created surface is treated with a paint and varnish substance that is in harmony with the palette of all components of the landscape.

Foundation construction

The fence, built from natural or artificial stone blocks, is characterized by high weight. Therefore, builders form the foundation according to the technological rules for obtaining brick buildings.

If geologists have discovered stone soil, it is possible to equip a shallow tape-type base. On the remaining rocks, durable supporting piles are erected, where a concrete tape is attached. The construction technology of this kind of foundation requires digging a trench 40-50 centimeters deep.

Deepenings are made in the ditch, the size of the underground level of which reaches 120-150 centimeters, and the bottom is equipped with gravel stones and a sandy layer. Then, a reliable waterproofing is created from a roofing material 120 centimeters long and reinforcement is installed, pre-welded from hot-rolled rods. Its height should ensure that such a parameter of the rods located in the well corresponds to the level of the planned fence posts.

The plane of the concrete surface is raised by mounting formwork boards 20-30 centimeters high. The foundation filled with concrete is treated with a protective film and left alone for seven days, necessary for the setting of the fixing mixture.

When the low strength of the soil is unable to fully withstand the fence with brick pillars, the reinforcement structure can be replaced with a square pipe with walls 60 to 80 millimeters thick.

brick laying

A reliable stone fence is being built using the technology of forming the walls of a residential building. Corner pillars are built here, intermediate supports are made from half to 0.7 meters high and piers are equipped.

Half-meter structures are laid out by experts from rows in half of the building block. The columns of the two-meter fence consist of two-row masonry, and the thickness of the wall corresponds to one stone. Blocks of erected pillars are tied with a special wire with wall elements.

Builders pull the line every 4-5 steps to detect relief defects on the surface. Before the solution has completely hardened, errors are easily corrected by tapping the rubber tip of a hammer on a wooden rail.

To obtain the optimal parameter for the thickness of the joints of the front side, it is necessary to use special PVC frames. They equip the gaps between the main elements of the created row.

After the cement has set, the bookmarks are eliminated, the vacant space is covered with multi-colored mixtures. When performing work, the correct geometric shape of the row is observed, excess leaked solution is removed, the front surface is thoroughly cleaned of adhering drops.

Choice of pattern and finish

A pre-built brick fence with corrugated board is easy enough to decorate. But until recently, the decoration of columns and piers of more solid objects took a lot of labor and financial resources.

The development of the construction industry made it possible to decorate the structure with gratings, vertical steel bars or iron patterned overlays. The classic spoon ligation of blocks is perfectly replaced by other methods that experienced designers have come up with.

The red walls of the fence are harmoniously combined with decorative varieties of plants. Proper use of rectangular openings saves 60 percent of the area, decorating a reliable open fence.

Cinder blocks or rubble stones increase the amount of savings, and also reduce the consumption of facing parts to 20 percent of their total amount involved in the construction of a two-meter pier. The use of dark-colored bricks allows you to cover the joints with white cement.

In some photos of a brick fence, owners may notice the presence of special protective caps. They prevent precipitation from entering the upper area of ​​the pillars and the wall. The choice of pre-ordered overlay patterns and decorative strips is determined by the overall appearance of summer cottages.

Proper installation of fake lamps at the top of the supporting columns will form the status image of the fence. The base is covered with plaster mixtures, or tiles imitating a granite or basalt surface.
