Frequently Asked Questions

How does Outen Fencing protect fences from Columbia’s humid climate and heavy rain?

Columbia’s humidity and frequent rain can cause wood to rot and metal to rust. We recommend weatherproofing treatments like stain or sealant for wood fences and galvanized coatings for metal. Our team inspects your fence for existing damage, repairs any issues, then applies a protective finish to extend its life. We also ensure proper drainage around posts to prevent water pooling. This proactive approach helps your fence withstand local weather conditions.

Can you install an automatic gate for a property near Lake Murray?

Yes, we install automatic gates for properties throughout the Columbia area, including neighborhoods around Lake Murray. We assess your driveway layout, power source, and security needs. Options include sliding, swing, or cantilever gates with keypads, remote controls, or smartphone integration. Our team handles the entire process from site prep to final testing, ensuring smooth operation and reliable access control.
