US demand for wood fencing is projected to grow 2.7% annually through 2024 to $2.4 billion. In volume terms, demand is forecast to rise slightly to 319.3 million linear feet. Although wood fencing sales are expected to fall in 2020 due to the drop in construction activity resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, demand will turn upward again in subsequent years as economic and market conditions improve.
However, the use of wood fencing in nonresidential markets – where security and durability are more important than aesthetics and cost – is expected to remain limited, preventing wood from posting larger sales increases as business activity climbs.
The residential market will account for most wood fencing demand gains through 2024, fueled by both the addition of new fences and the need to repair existing ones. The majority of existing home fencing is wood – among the least durable of materials used – and the upkeep and repair necessary on these fences will support sales increases.
Additionally, rising homeowner interest in outdoor living will boost demand for fencing that is more aesthetically pleasing and that provides more privacy than traditional products, contributing to overall value growth.
Wood will continue to be the second most popular fencing material behind metal because of its aesthetics and lower material and installation costs compared to competitive materials. However, the greater durability and minimal maintenance requirements of plastic fencing, which can closely mimic the appearance of wood, will restrict overall wood fencing demand growth. Competition from long-lasting ornamental metal products will also have a dampening effect on increases in wood picket fence sales.
Prefabricated wood fencing will record faster market advances through 2024 than individual components assembled on-site:
As a result, demand for individual wood fencing components assembled on-site will largely be limited to:
