Not much is more exciting than a brand-new fence or deck project—a total overhaul of the decaying, rotting structure you put off replacing for years.

While easy to install, many people forget about the impact accessories have on their new build. The products look great themselves, but there’s so much more to be considered when you’re thinking about a new fence or deck project. Here are a few ways you can add to your project:

FENCE PROJECTS

You might think that, once your actual fence is installed, there isn’t much you can do to make it look even better. While true to a certain extent, there’s still a lot you can do to spruce up the look of your fence, with the most notable being post caps.

A beautiful, black pyramid post cap looks amazing on a newly installed fence and truly ties together the look of your outdoor space.

If you don’t want to stop there, fence and gate inserts are one of our most popular products for a reason. They’re a hit with homeowners who want to add a bit of decorative flair to their new build. From the simple and timeless ACW54 to the modern rectangular look of the ACW57, there’s an insert for everyone.

Project Ideas: You can use them in your gate, as a puppy window in your gate or fence, or even along the entire fence line every few sections.

DECK PROJECTS

While there’s still a lot you can do to spruce up the look of your fence, deck projects are where you can truly shine with creativity and the sheer number of products available to play with.

Post caps, latches, hinges—they all work together to create a deck where friends and family will truly love to gather and share stories all night long.

The best part is, there are beautiful accessories at every price point, so whether you want to spend a lot or a little, you can still accentuate the look of your new deck.

BEYOND ACCESSORIES

Once you’ve taken the time to upgrade your deck or fence with gate hardware and high-quality accessories, you can begin to look beyond that and really make your deck stand out from the rest.

Small things like cleaning it regularly and applying an occasional stain can drastically improve the appearance of your deck and increase the longevity of your investment.
