Five Benefits of Willow Fencing

clock-circular-outline Created with Sketch. Jan 24, 2024

Willow hurdles are a breath of fresh air in a world dominated by concrete and machine cut materials. The natural flow of wicker panels presents a change to the monotony that we see. Willow hurdles are a break from the normal, an end to the uniformity, and a march against the harmful consumption of the modern world. But a willow fence is not just a rustic garden accessory, they provide a multitude of benefits that you may not be aware of. Read on to find out five benefits of willow fencing for your garden.

1. Natural Windbreak. Willow hurdles can provide a natural windbreak whilst remaining stable. A sturdy wicker fence has natural gaps in the weave, and can allow some wind to pass through, whilst blocking most of the force. This means that your garden is protected from wind, whilst the hurdles remain standing in even the strongest gusts and so are the perfect fence for any breezy climate. Willow fencing also serves to improve your garden on a hot day, when compared with standard garden fencing, as they allow a small breeze to permeate, which has a nice cooling effect.

2. Eco friendly and sustainable. Every willow hurdle is handwoven by skilled artisans, using techniques that have existed for over 10,000 years. Sustainably harvested, wicker panels are the premier fence on the market. Willow fencing, unlike other fencing, will biodegrade at the end of its lifespan without leaving any harmful residue.

3. Privacy and Protection. While not completely opaque, wicker fence panels offer a good degree of privacy and seclusion, shielding your garden from prying eyes and creating a peaceful sanctuary. Willow fences are also versatile and can easily be adapted to fit many outdoor spaces, such as decks, patios, hot tubs and to cover old fences.

4. Lightweight and easy to install. Compared to our range of hazel hurdles, our willow fencing is lighter and allows for easier installation, as it has more spokes which means it has increased sturdiness in the ground. If you'd like to see our fencing installation guide, you can see that here. Unlike wooden fences that require regular sanding, staining, and repairs, wicker panels are remarkably low-maintenance. An occasional sweep with a broom and a light touch-up every few years is all they need to maintain their pristine condition. This translates to more time spent enjoying your outdoor space and less time wrestling with upkeep.

5. Aesthetics. Whilst we already said the rustic looks of these wicker panels aren't everything, we'd be lying if we didn't say that willow panels' natural aesthetic will not enhance your gardens image. Every willow hurdle is unique and this prevents you from having the monotonous fencing that plagues the nation nowadays. Make use of this classic hurdle to spruce up your garden and give it that extra natural look that will really impress your friends. Willow fencing has a natural reddish orange tinge, that can be subtly appreciated in a garden. 

We hope we've given you some valuable insight into whether willow fencing is the option for you. Willow hurdles combine natural beauty, eco-friendliness and practicality. So if you feel that willow fencing is the option for you, check out our range here.
