Asheville Fence Blog

The leaves are starting to turn and fall. And you know that means autumn is coming and the warm days of summer are through. 

We have cooler weather, delicious food, and family gatherings just around the corner, and it is probably no small assumption that it is many people's favorite time of year. While we often tend to begin to take our recreation time indoors, fall isn’t the time to slack on home maintenance.

When it comes to protecting and securing our own property, the correct choices matter. For those who are tasked with looking after the property of others, those choices are even more critical. Those who run self-storage properties have a particular responsibility to keep the facility safe and secure, and accessible to those using the facilities.

Installing a fence and gate is often a crucial step in that security. But picking the right level and type of access control for your property and clients can sometimes be daunting. Let’s take a look at some tips that can help you choose the best access control system for your self-storage property.

Fence installations around our businesses and homes add not only safe practicality to the environment but privacy and beauty as well. Over time, however, the weather and other environmental factors take their toll on the exterior surfaces of fences. They are exposed every day to everything we and mother nature can throw at them.

Warm weather has truly arrived in the mountains of western North Carolina. One of the most beautiful places to live in the country. We are so fortunate to be in the shadow of some of the tallest mountains in the Appalachians. 

From almost anywhere in the Asheville area, residents can look up to see beautiful views and vast vistas. Within a short drive of downtown, you can explore hundreds of waterfalls, hike and mountain bike on thousands of miles of trails, and enjoy true outdoor adventure. 

With spring and summer comes the promise of sunny days and opportunities to explore the multitude of hiking and mountain biking trails, campgrounds, and waterways. But that warmer weather also brings along an increased risk of severe weather, including thunderstorms, heavy rain, and strong winds. We have already seen a number of strong systems form along the Appalachian mountains this year.
