Fairfield County, CT
A timeless New England classic — open, rustic, and naturally beautiful. Custom built using premium Locust and Hemlock for lasting durability across any terrain.
A Timeless Classic That
Belongs in New England
Post and rail fencing has been part of the New England landscape for centuries. Open, honest, and naturally beautiful — it defines boundaries without closing off views, and it suits wooded lots, rolling terrain, and rural properties better than almost any other fence style.
At A. Anastasio Fence Company, we build post and rail fences from premium Locust and Hemlock — two of the most naturally durable hardwoods available, and the traditional choice for this style of fence throughout Fairfield County.

2 Rail
Post & Rail Fence
The 2 Rail post and rail fence is our most understated option — a simple two-horizontal-rail design that provides a clear property boundary without interrupting your landscape's natural flow. It's ideal for defining boundaries along wooded edges, roadsides, and large open lots.
Built from Locust and Hemlock — two of the most naturally durable hardwoods used in traditional New England fencing — the 2 Rail fence ages beautifully and requires virtually no maintenance over time.
3 Rail Split Rail
Fence
The 3 Rail split rail fence adds a third horizontal rail for additional presence and a more substantial boundary. The split rail style features logs that are split lengthwise — giving the fence a rustic, hand-crafted character that blends beautifully into wooded and natural settings.
At 4 ft. tall, the 3 Rail split rail is also a popular choice for containing dogs and other animals while maintaining the open, countryside feel that makes this style so enduring across Fairfield County properties.
Post & Rail with
Wire Mesh
Need to contain pets or keep wildlife out without losing the open look of a post and rail fence? We can attach welded wire mesh to the inside of any post and rail fence — giving you full containment while keeping the rustic aesthetic of the fence intact from the street.
This combination is one of our most popular configurations for Fairfield County properties with dogs, gardens to protect, or light deer pressure. The wire is virtually invisible from a distance and doesn't change the character of the fence.
"Post and rail with wire mesh gives you the best of both worlds — the open, natural look of a rail fence with the functional containment of a solid enclosure."
A. Anastasio Fence Company
- Pet containment — keeps dogs safely within your yard without a heavy visual barrier
- Garden protection — stops rabbits and small animals from reaching garden beds
- Light deer deterrent — effective for lower deer pressure areas in combination with rail height
- Invisible from a distance — wire blends naturally into the fence from the road
