New Timber Fencing and Bespoke Garden Gate Installation in Dawlish

A well-built fence can completely change the feel of a property. It gives a garden more privacy, improves security and creates a much cleaner boundary between outdoor spaces.

This recent fencing project by DTG Fencing is a great example of that. The team completed a smart timber fencing installation for a property in the Dawlish area, including a long run of closeboard-style fencing and bespoke timber gates finished neatly around the existing layout of the home.

The result is simple, practical and tidy, which is exactly what good fencing should be.

Creating a Stronger Garden Boundary

From the photos, the main section of fencing runs along the front and side boundary of the property, creating a much more private and enclosed space for the customer.

The timber fence has been installed to follow the shape of the driveway and boundary wall, giving the property a clean finish from both inside and outside the garden. This kind of fencing is ideal for homes where privacy and security are important, especially where gardens sit close to pavements, roads or neighbouring properties.

A solid timber fence can help:

Improve privacy around the garden
Define the boundary clearly
Make driveways and outdoor areas feel more secure
Reduce exposure from nearby roads or footpaths
Improve the appearance of the property from the outside

For many homes in Dawlish and across Devon, fencing is not just about marking a boundary. It plays a big part in how the property looks and how usable the garden feels.

Bespoke Timber Gates Built to Fit

Alongside the fencing, the team also installed bespoke timber gates to suit the shape and access points of the property.

One of the gates has a curved top, black hinges and a neat timber finish, giving the entrance a more traditional and attractive look. Another gate section has been built into a more enclosed area beside the property, helping create secure access while matching the surrounding fencing.

This is where a made-to-measure approach really matters. Not every entrance is a standard size, and older properties or tight spaces often need something designed specifically for the opening.

A bespoke gate can make the difference between something that simply fills a gap and something that actually looks like it belongs there.

Fencing That Works With the Existing Property

One of the most important parts of this type of job is making the new timber fencing work with what is already there.

In this project, the fencing sits alongside brickwork, rendered walls, driveway surfaces and existing garden boundaries. Getting the lines, levels and fixings right is what creates a tidy final result.

Poorly planned fencing can look out of place very quickly, especially where there are changes in ground level or different materials meeting each other. A professional installation makes sure the fence is secure, aligned properly and finished with care.

The finished work gives the property a fresh, well-kept appearance without looking overdone.

Why Timber Fencing Is Still a Popular Choice

Timber fencing remains one of the most popular options for domestic gardens across Devon, and for good reason.

It is practical, attractive and suits a wide range of properties, from modern homes to more traditional coastal and village properties. It can also be adapted to suit different heights, styles and layouts.

Timber fencing works well for:

Garden boundaries
Driveway edges
Side access areas
Privacy screening
Pet and child-friendly garden spaces
Replacement fencing after storm damage
Front garden improvements

With the right installation and ongoing care, timber fencing can provide a strong, long-lasting boundary while keeping a natural appearance.
