How to create a driveway with a difference

09.03.23

Your driveway is the first thing visitors, potential buyers, and passers-by will notice about your property, so it's important to make a good impression. By using garden joinery products, you can enhance your driveway and make it stand out in style. Here are some ideas to get you started.

Trellis Toppers on Walls

Adding trellis to the top of brick walls surrounding your driveway can provide additional privacy without completely blocking off the view. Climbing plants can be trained up the trellis, adding natural beauty and making your driveway feel more secluded. For a decorative flourish at the end of a run of trellis or at a change in height, choose our new bespoke quality Prestige Corner Arch Trellis Panels.

 

Bespoke Driveway Gates

A beautiful set of bespoke driveway gates can elevate the look of your entrance. Whether you opt for a traditional wooden design or a more modern style, a well-made set of gates add privacy and security while also making a striking statement. Pedestrian gates are also available from the online shop in a range of designs and high-quality finishes.

 

Secure Fencing

Wooden fencing can help to keep unwanted visitors out of your property and can also add an attractive element to your perimeter. Choose from a range of wooden designs to suit your style and security needs, including our RHS Prestige Solid Tongue & Groove Fence Panels, stunning Weave Panels or pretty Picket Fencing.

 

Features for a Tidy Entrance

Keep your property entrance tidy and organised with the addition of useful features such as bin stores, air conditioning covers and bike sheds. These can be customised to match the design of your driveway and blend in with the rest of the landscaping. Our stylish new bin screens come in a range of designs and are another great option for covering up wheelie bins, compost bins, water butts and more.

 

You might also like to consider custom storage options to get the perfect screening and cover for items like air source heat pumps, electric car chargers, bikes and bins.

 

Wooden Planters

Placing wooden planters by the front door is a stylish way to add greenery and create a welcoming, impressive entrance. These can be left natural or painted in a range of colours to match your property exterior. Bespoke wooden planters can also be designed to add planting to any tricky space.

 

Car Ports and Pergolas

If you have limited garage space or simply want to protect your car from the elements, a car port or pergola can provide shelter while also looking great. These can be custom designed to match the style of your driveway and provide a seamless extension to your home. You can also get creative with our ready-made Trellis Panels, Slatted Panels or Vista Decorative Screens, or create a covered walkway with our new ready-made Pergolas.

With these garden joinery ideas, you can create a stunning driveway that perfectly complements the style of your property. Speak to The Garden Trellis Co today to discuss your vision and transform your driveway into a stunning entranceway.
