5' Tall 3-rail racking panel Fence Installation

This project involved replacing an existing fence line spanning 180 linear feet. The client required a complete demo and replacement with a more robust racking panel system that could accommodate terrain variations.
Job Specifications
Fence System:

Height: 5 feet tall
Style: 3-rail racking panel design
Posts: 2-inch square black posts, 8 feet in length
Configuration: Racking panels (designed to follow ground contours rather than fixed/stepped panels)

Access Points:

Three single gates integrated into the fence line

Scope of Work:

Demolition of 180 linear feet of existing fencing
Installation of new racking panel system along the same fence line

Key Features & Challenges
Racking vs. Fixed Panels:
The racking panel specification was crucial for this project. Unlike fixed panels that create a stepped appearance on sloped terrain, racking panels adjust to follow the natural grade of the land, providing a smooth, flowing appearance across uneven ground. This suggests the property had some topographical variation that needed to be accommodated.
Demolition Component:
The 180LF demo requirement meant the crew had to factor in removal and disposal of the old fence before installation could begin, adding time and labor to the overall project timeline.
Project Outcome
The combination of durable 2-inch square posts with the flexible racking panel design created a professional-grade perimeter fence that adapts to the landscape while maintaining consistent height and appearance. The three strategically placed gates provide convenient access points along the fence line, and the black finish offers a modern, cohesive look that complements the property.
