About fence paint colors

Fences are usually stained rather than painted, but the case for paint is stronger than for decks: fences are vertical, see less foot traffic, and a saturated paint color makes the fence into a landscape feature rather than a structural element to hide.

The picks below cover the major fence-color directions. Classic white for picket and farmhouse fences. Natural browns for traditional cedar and pine. Deep green for fences meant to recede into landscape. The all-black fence (a 2020s trend pushed by landscape designers) creates a strong visual frame for plantings.
