Fences, Arbors, Gates, Trellises
From Threshold to Tangle of Vine
Fences, Arbors & Trellises in Harmony With the Landscape
The most subtle structures often carry the most meaning. A fence outlines space. A gate signals arrival. An arbor catches light and softens transition. A trellis invites upward growth. Together, these elements bring clarity, rhythm, and charm to a landscape and offers both structure and invitation.
At Heritage Landscapes, these features are never treated as afterthoughts. They’re integrated into the overall design, part of a larger landscape overhaul that considers architecture, movement, and the emotional experience of place.
Define the Line. Elevate the View.
A garden gate can be the most-used detail in the landscape. We use fences and gates not just to separate spaces, but to guide and ground them. Arbors and trellises mark transitions, draw the eye, and create opportunities for softness and shade. Each element is scaled to the site and shaped by purpose—built to complement plantings, materials, and the flow of the garden.
Typical features include:
Custom wood or steel fencing for privacy, security, or garden structure
Handcrafted gates with architectural or sculptural detail
Arbors and overhead elements designed to support vines or frame entrances
Trellises for screening, vertical planting, or soft division of space
Integrated lighting and hardware for ease, safety, and finish
We work with trusted craftspeople across Marin, Sonoma, SF, and Napa to ensure every detail (from joinery to finish) is executed with consistency, care, and craft.

Part of a Complete Vision
Fences, arbors, gates, and trellises are designed and built only as part of a full-site transformation. This allows us to match scale, materials, and purpose across every element of the property from stonework and planting to grading and lighting, so nothing feels tacked on or out of place.
