Most states have a fence Law, one way or another. Many states have a common Law fence rule only when the fence is built right on the property line. That means that the neighbor now controls their side of your fence. When I build a fence, I build 1 foot over on my side of the property line. That way if any arguments or issues arise from the neighbor regarding your fence, they have NO SAY IN IT, because it is completely on your property and NOT the shared property line. If they want to do anything to the fence, they would have to trespass onto your property in order to touch your fence. The fence now would NOT be considered common fence Law. That one foot of property you think you lose, you actually GAIN full control of, rather than having your neighbor take you to court and try to claim part control over shared fence argument, when in fact, it is 1 foot on your property away from the property line. Settles any future arguments any neighbor would ever have with you.

Downside of those fences is unlike pickets no wind gets through so if you live in areas with potential high wind gusts I've seen it bend the posts over or the fasteners pull loose and the panel becomes a kite. Here in Colorado the blowing snow also pushes them over as unlike pickets no snow gets through so it just piles up one side.

Wind is definitely a nemisis around here! We can get 60-70 mph gusts in our part of Wyoming, so we have to engineer for it. Surprisingly, the wind load on this really isn't much more than a solid picket fence with minimal gaps. It still carries a considerable windload of course, which is why we go as deep as we do (to get below frost line) and use as much concrete as we do (just shy of 300 lbs per hole).

I put in a similar fence for a friend about 20 years ago. Still doing great. I don't think I'd recommend one normally between neighbors, but this one was against a city strip that was overgrown. This kept the weeds and berry bushes from growing thru the fence. It was 6 foot also, and on a slope, so there was a bit more trouble in making sure the "steps' worked out. Biggest problem we had was cutting corrugated nice and cleanly. But I had some electric shears that did well on it. I've put in corrugated on barns and used a plasma cutter that did well, but there is galvanizing on the panels, so that is not nice with a plasma cutter.

Guys, beautiful Work! Great work! High quality and professional! Please forgive me for asking this annoying question: if I hired your services to install something like that on my land, would you hate me if I asked could I paint it a medium brown color after installation? 😐
@SWiFence6 ай бұрын
We would not hate you at all! It's your fence! Yes, you can paint it afterward, but you'll need to prep the surface to get your paint to adhere. Galvanized steel tends to reject paint.

Holy cow. That corrugated metal is selling for $20 sheet in my area. I wish had that kind of money to burn. I just fail to see how that's any better than $9 for fence pickets to cover the same area. And if you paint those pickets once every 3-5 years, they'll by far outlast that corrugated metal which will rust into oblivion in about 20 years or so, especially with those metal posts providing a path to ground for the entire metal fence.

Those sheets are over $30 per over here. Is concrete that good a conductor? My money's on the steel/cedar hybrid. I see exactly zero owners painting any fence every five years. Just gotta knock down the polish to a more matte finish. 😎

Only site I could find prices without getting a quote is $80 a sheet but they are 12 foot so cut them in half if your doing a 6 foot fence. Probably could find better prices if I were to get quotes. I’m also in Canada too so everything costs double it should

The property next to a job I was doing had a similar steel panel fence. Talk about a noisy fence! The Damned thing would pop and crack evert time the sun would come and go behind the clouds. The expansion and contraction of the panels would produce non stop noise. And its ugly on top of that!

You’re a fun guy to watch😉 You mentioned how it took a lot of screws to put this fence together, not so sure the host isin’t the lead screw😆 Unique fence, beautifully done, excellent quality👍. Very entertaining video, thank you. We’re from the “show me state”. Missouri

What's the back side look like? The State that I'm in, the "beauty/good side" must face the neighboring property. The fence looks nice, but here where I'm at, the cost would be nearly double if you want it to look nice from the inside of your property as well.

Get no.4 rebar weld 1/4" thick 1 1/2" wide plate to rebar .2 bars between each two post.Going horizontally each brace 8'so they touch end to end.use them on steel or wood or you could just stand around and hit each other with them.PS predrill the flat stock steel and a different hole for wood.

Haha in my neighborhood I see this trend now however just couple post to post sections or gates. all small yards with small runs, most have picture framed out or barn door bracing. Some even with some sort of acid etching to change color I like the bronze looking ones I’m seeing but I can’t seem to find any products to achieve this.
