The Advantages of Vinyl Fence Installation in NJ

There are many things that you should consider when deciding on the material you want for your fence. This is a list of only some of the benefits of installing vinyl fencing in NJ.
  • Vinyl has nearly five times the strength of wood, which makes it a great choice if your location experiences extreme weather conditions. Wooden fences are more likely to break and collapse if your area sees extreme wind and rain conditions. This resistance is also ideal if you are enclosing animals because they are unable to chew through it.
  • Minimal maintenance is required with vinyl fence installation in NJ. Just some general light cleaning with soap and water and you can maintain your fences original appearance. Chemicals are added to the vinyl composite that prevent it from losing or changing its color.
  • Vinyl fencing is non toxic to pets and children because it is not treated with any chemicals. Since it is made of recycled material there is minimal wastage involved. If you do decide to remove a vinyl fence after it is installed it is easily recyclable.
  • Vinyl fencing is also more cost efficient than wood or iron fences. This includes savings on maintenance and repainting costs.

If vinyl fencing seems like a good choice for you, your next step is finding a professional installer. Challenger Fence specializes in vinyl fence installation in NJ with quality and care being the most important matter.

NJ Fence Company & Choosing The Right Fence for Your Home

There are several factors you should keep in mind when deciding to install, or replace, a fence on your property. This list will help you make your decision a little easier.
  • Ask yourself “Why do I want a fence?”, and let's start there. If it's to keep the dog in the yard simple is an easy way to go. If you want something to block the noise from your neighborhood and give you some privacy, a solid tall fence is what you need. Maybe some combination of the two? Whatever your reasoning is, the first step is deciding what will and won't work for you.
  • Choose your materials wisely. It's part of the American Dream to have a yard with a white picket fence. Much like Tom Sawyer, many people do not like to keep up with the maintenance of the wooden fences. Wood fences require a moderate amount of upkeep if you want them to maintain their aesthetics over time. If you a wood fence seems like too much work, or something you rather not be bothered with, consider a vinyl fence. You sacrifice some looks, but at the price of maintenance and cost.
  • Make sure to check with your local municipality about fences. If you need assistance, our NJ fence company will be glad to help. Some towns and neighborhood associations have guidelines for residence fencing. Checking these things out before you even start your project will keep your expectations realistic and save you from costly fines.
  • Be a good neighbor. Before you start the project discuss it with your neighbors and let them know about your fencing plans. Make sure that your fencing desires do not obstruct their view or are seen as an unkindly sign. This will also help you determine property lines in the process.
  • Consider the climate that you live in. If the soil in your are is prone to freezing concrete anchors are a must, otherwise the soil could damage the posts. Likewise, if you live in a damp climate choose a material that isn't susceptible to water damage and rot.
  • Plan your entrances accordingly. Plan to have two gates for safety and convenience purposes. Making one significantly larger is a good idea in case any heavy machinery ever needs access to your back yard. Planning ahead for these things can save you a considerable amount of money and headaches in the long run.

Now that you have a well planned, well thought out course of action you are ready to take the next step. Finding a quality fence company in NJ, like Challenger Fences, will make sure that your fence is installed with quality and safety in mind. Putting up a fence isn't something that can be done in your next weekend project.

Winter Fencing Tips: Fence Installation in Westwood NJ

During the winter months, cold temperatures and snowfall along with high winds can all damage your beautiful fence. As experts of fence installation in Westwood, Challenger Fence Inc has a few helpful pointers that will allow you to battle these conditions and arrive at spring with your fence intact. Take a look at what you can do and spend some time now to protect your fence from damage down the line.

Know the materials – fences that are wooden will be far more susceptible to changes in moisture and temperature than PVC, vinyl or chain link. These fences can be treated to be less sensitive over the winter, and once they get wet there is a much longer period over which they can dry out in the winter. Use a stain or waterproofing chemical that will keep your fence dry and free of mold or rot.

Clean around the posts – any kind of fence needs strong earth and a dependable foundation in order to stay standing. During winter, frost and snowfall can cause the ground around your fence to shift, move or weaken the dirt and make the fence sag or even fall over. When you are having a fence installation in Westwood, the posts should be buried an average of three feet where they are immune to the effects of topical climate changes.

Recognize problem areas – falling limbs and trees can damage a perfectly strong fence in a winter storm. Look at the surrounding trees and limbs in your yard to try and identify what might be a hazard during a snowstorm. If you can have a service reduce these risks, your fence will be unaffected.
Using these winter fencing tips, you can stay comfortable in your home all season and know that when spring thaws come, things will be as they should. Contact our fencing experts to learn more about fence installation in Westwood NJ.

Good Fences

Robert Frost wrote, “Good fences make good neighbors”, which in some cases is an understatement. In Spring Hill, Florida a man was shot by his neighbor. What caused such a harsh reaction? Bill Stelling says it started in 2004 when his neighbor Thomas Brocato moved in and built a two story house. The problems started when Brocato hired a company to install a fence at the rear of the property. Stelling alerted the company that a fence post was on his property, and the company confirmed he was right.
According to Stelling, Brocato told him he was going to make his life hell. Brocato would ring Stelling's doorbell at all hours of the night. A neighbor told Florida detectives that Stelling put up a privacy fence that Brotacto knocked down at least three times.
After two months, Stelling recovered from the shooting enough to recall the events. He had heard a knock at the door and opened it to Brocato's dog. Then Brocato jumped out and fired into Stelling's stomach, and discharged an additional three rounds.
When installing a fence it is a good idea to find a fence company that knows the rules and regulations of fence installation in your area. Challenger Fence has years of professional experience and offers free estimates on all fence installations.

Tips for Fencing In Dogs

If you own a dog (and more than one-third of Americans do,) you already understand the amount of energy necessary to get through every day. A great way to let your dog run around without having to drive yourself crazy is by having a fence installation in NJ that ensures your yard can keep the critter in – and allow him to let his energy out. The fence experts at Challenger Fence Inc have posted a list of some tips to keep in mind if you are looking for a dog fence.

The fence must be high enough to prevent the dog from jumping over, and even go about eight inches underground to be certain the dog can’t tunnel out.

Pick a material that is right for you, but be sure that it does not allow the dog to escape. Chain link is great for pets, but not great for privacy. If you want a picket fence, make sure the gaps are not big enough for a dog to escape through.

Consider the options. An invisible fence or an electrified fence are available to pet owners, but can also come with their own issues to overcome. Putting a fence around your yard is a simple solution that can last for many years.

For more information about fences and to decide which fence is right for you, browse our fence catalog or speak to an expert at Challenger Fence Inc.

Fence Installation NJ

Putting a fence around your home can be beneficial for many reasons. It can protect your children and pets, be a deterrent to burglars, and provide your yard with much needed privacy. Challenger Fence Inc is a professional company that provides high quality fence installation in NJ at affordable prices.

If you own a wooden fence, here are some things that you can do to maintain it:


  • Power wash. Before staining your fence, give it a power wash. This can remove much of the dirt, mildew, mold and other stains.
  • Don’t use cleaning products. Many of the fence cleaning products on the market do not work the way they claim. Some end up making your fence look worse and even kill surrounding grass and plants.
  • Don’t stain your fence with a brush. Professionals will use an airless sprayer gun. Since this works much quicker, you will go through less stain to complete the job.

Repair and Replace Wooden Fences

Wooden fences wear, it's the downside to their otherwise pleasing aesthetics. Anything can affect these fences, from pets and children, to Mother Nature. Moisture, heat and wind all determine how long a wooden fence will last. There are several ways to determine whether your fence has deteriorated, or is just taking on that rustic look. By testing the strength of the fence you can determine how solid the framework is. If it feels strong then a coat of stain or sanding could bring some life back to it. If it feels weak and flimsy, it is time to consider replacing the fence.
Because of the amount of use, fence gates tend to go first. The gate can start to sag or the post it is attached to can become disconnected from the rest of the fence. Posts will most likely need attention next because they are bearing the weight of the fence. See if the posts are securely in the ground, if not you can add some wooden shims to prevent any movement.
If it appears that your fence is beyond repair, do not panic though. Challenger Fence Inc. is a family-owned NJ fence installation company that offers free estimates. When installing a new fence it is imperative to find a company that uses the highest quality products, and are experts in installation.

NJ Fence Installation

Recycling has become a big part of the American lifestyle. Patrick Kellie's business, Now Waste Not Technologies, is making a business out of old milk jugs. The company is turning the old milk jugs into fences that are 100% recycled, except for the dye. The milk jugs are purchased from local recycling centers and are made to look wooden. One section of fencing with two posts and two slats contains about 700 milk jugs. These fences will not rot, corrode or become discolored, making them extremely low maintenance.
These fences may not be available near you soon, but there are other options if you are looking for fences. PVC fences will provide you with the same low-maintenance that the recycled fences would. They deter weather corrosion, pest infestation and can easily be painted. PVC fences are sturdier though if you are looking to enclose your yard to protect your animals or children. Installing a PVC fence can also add to your properties resale value.
Fence installation in NJ is something that needs to be done with care due to the states strict zoning laws and regulations. It is important that you hire a company that understands these guidelines or else it may end up costing you in fines. Challenger Fence Inc has been providing quality fence installations in NJ for over a decade.

Environmentally Friendly Fence Cleaning

PVC and vinyl fences are the most environmentally options for fences available to homeowners, and as the trend of eco-friendly home improvement continues to drive society the time to improve your fence is better than ever. If you got your vinyl fence installation done earlier in the summer, the time to do some winterizing and cleaning is now, and the experts at Challenger Fence Inc are sharing some useful tips that can go a long way in preserving your fence’s appeal.

Vinyl is a durable material that can withstand a lot of damage from the elements, and to clean you want to equip yourself with a soft bristle scrub brush, some mild soap, water (a hose is ideal) and rags to wipe with. Most of the dirt, grass and smudges will come off your vinyl fence with some elbow grease and direct water application.

Spray down your fence with a hose and then go to spots where the dirt remains. Using the bucket mixture of soap and water give the dirt and grass stains a scrubbing that will often leave your fence shiny and clean in a few moments. If you want, solution specifically for cleaning vinyl can be acquired at a local hardware store.

It is recommended that you clean your vinyl fence 1-2 times every year, and maybe as many as 4 times depending on your surroundings, the natural conditions where you live and just the average wear-and-tear that your vinyl fence may be getting.

Cleaning Your Wood Fence

Wooden fences are a great choice for practical and aesthetic lawn enhancement, but likely will need to be cleaned every once in a while to prevent disrepair and other issues. The fence experts at Challenger Fence Inc have come up with some great wood fence cleaning tips that can restore and rejuvenate your perimeter fencing and get rid of mildew or mold in the process.
  • If you do not feel like hand-scrubbing your fence, the best option is to power wash it yourself. If you have a power washer or can borrow one, this will save you quite a bit of time and effort. To prepare for this, it is a good idea to cover and protect plants from the force of the water with a tarp.
  • After power washing your fence at a strength between 1500 to 2000 psi, go over certain spots by hand with a scrubber and some household bleach mixed in with the water. After scrubbing, go over these areas with the power washer again.
  • If you do not have access to a power washer, you will have to hand scrub the fence from start to finish using bleach and water.
  • After the mildew is gone, sand and go over the fence to knock in protruding screws and nails while smoothing out the surface,
  • It is important to apply a wood finisher when you are done cleaning the fence and allowing this solution to sink into the wood. This will restore the sheen to your fence and protect it from the elements.
  • If you need to paint in certain areas, repaint.
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO MIX ANYTHING WITH BLEACH AND TO NOT COMBINE CERTAIN SOLUTIONS. THIS CAN BE HARMFUL FOR HEALTH.

Take these tips and take advantage of the great weather this fall to brush up your fence. Challenger Fence Inc has many years of experience performing fence installations in NJ and can be consulted to learn more ways to take care of your fence.

Keeping Your Dog Out of Your Garden

A fenced in yard is great for pets, but what about keeping your pets out of areas like a garden? Dogs don't know that you don't want them to trample your begonias or not eat your tomatoes. But there are measures you can take to ensure your garden is safe. During your fall clean up collect as many branches as you can, instead of dropping them off at your recycling center, there is a way they can solve your problem.
Collect branches that are 1-2” in diameter and break off any small twigs. Cut one end of the branch at an angle, this is the end that will go into the ground. Cut the other end straight, the flat surface will provide a better area to strike. Place the stakes less than eight inches apart and this will prevent your dog from entering your garden! If you want extra protection, take thinner branches flexible branches and weave them between the stakes. Don't fret if one goes missing or it starts to decay it's easily fixed. It's a great, cost free solution!
This is often known as a wattle fence, and it has been used for over 6,000 years. It dates back to the Neolithic era where it was commonly used for enclosing ground or handling livestock.
Keeping your dogs out of your garden is important, so is keeping your dog in your yard. A wattle fence wouldn't be your best choice to fence in your whole yard. It would be time consuming and strenuous. Think about NJ fence installation made of wood, chain link, aluminum or vinyl. When you are installing fences in NJ choose a company that is trusted and reliable. Challenger Fence Inc. uses only high-quality materials to ensure the longevity of your fence.

A “Living Fence” Redefines Security and Beauty

What if a fence could make your yard green, eco-friendly and also safe? In an article from the South Wales Evening Post, a fence in the city of Swansea is described that changes the definition of safety and aesthetic appeal for pedestrians walking along a busy thoroughfare. The fence in question is a wire mesh covered by vines and other plants so that people who are walking along the street will be encouraged to cross at appropriate times – a result of the tragic death of two pedestrians in the past four years.

The advantages of the hedging on this fence is twofold: it screens the wire fencing from view but also helps to absorb the emissions from the many vehicles driving along that road in hopes of helping the area become more environmentally conscious. The fence installation is being funded by Welsh Government Road Safety Grant, a staunch supporter of the ways this fence will help preserve life, look great and help the future generations battle environmental issues.

Even though this fence is not the first of its kind, this is a sign of the importance of being forward-thinking in terms of your next home upgrade. The value of your fence can be way more than simply keeping people out or trying to make your pool look better during the summer. Great fences are a thing of the future.

The History of Barbed Wire Fences

If I asked you to think of a fence right now, there is a good chance the fence you are picturing in your head is a barbed wire fence. This iconic style of fencing is used throughout America for security, containment and safety purposes, and has many industrial, commercial and military applications. What you might not know is the controversial history of the barbed wire fence in America. The fencing experts at Challenger Fence Inc, the industry leading fence company in North NJ, have done their homework in order to bring you a short history of the barbed wire fence.

As America was being settled, ranching and cattle herding became an important part of success on the prairie. The environment was not conducive to wood, making costly picket and wood fence installations impractical for the landscape. To get around this obstacle, an innovator named Michael Kelly twisted strands of wire together – strengthening the barrier against the strong force exerted by the cows as they foraged – and the painful spikes of wire where the cables were joined would remind the cows not to press against the fence.

After this change, an inventor named Joseph Glidden designed an improved fence and constructed the machinery to mass product barbed wire fences for farmers. This fence became a fixture of the landscape in the American West during the late 1800s and early 1900s, and soon military experts realized the benefits that barbed wire fencing could have on keeping enemies out.

Fencing has come a long way since stone, wood and barbed wire were exclusively used, but there is no undermining the uses of a quality fence. If you are looking for a fence installation, Challenger Fence has the skill and expertise to help.
