The white picket fences surrounding many Lexington homes are getting a new twist. A gated fence adds privacy along with security. At the end of a driveway or onto an existing wall or fence, you can install a remote controlled gate. The gate may be controlled by computer programs, hand-held instruments, or even your BlackBerry or Treo.
These systems don't come cheap. A DIY model can be purchased for about $1,200 and a professional, more elaborate system will run anywhere from $18,000 to 130,000. Some people feel that these gates are a sign of the increase of fear and apprehension in Americans. Several others feel that they are merely the best form of privacy. Either way, business is booming, based on information from those marketing fences.
