Although easy to install, a single panel may be more expensive than a wooden panel, but overall replacement projects are generally cheaper. This is because these components are pre-assembled and designed to fit together with minimal additional effort.

Some fencing parts may come with their own mounting kit. If a single panel needs to be replaced, you can easily replace it with the same panel. This type of change does not affect the overall integrity of the fence.
