System Components:
![]() ![]() INSTALLATION VARIATIONS Elevation Changes Elevation changes require a post. In other words, a level fence that starts up or down a slope must have a post where the slope starts and ends. Likewise, if a fence changes height (as in step height changes), there must be a post at the point of each height change. Note any slope the fence must cross. Is it uphill or downhill? Attachment Point out any place the fence will attach to existing posts, walls or structures and note how the fence is to be attached. Indicate what is to be attached to and the location for the attachment. Pilasters For pilasters further than 8' apart, a center leg may be put in the middle for support. If the distance is more than 10' between pilasters, or the fence is greater than 5' in height, it is recommended that a post be used in the center. Special Situations List any special conditions that might need consideration such as children or small dogs. ![]() Bias Panels Bias panels are made on an angle to match the ground contours. Such a panel is used when the customer does not want the fence to step or when over the length of the panel, there is more than a 4" drop (for Regal, Napoleon or Empire styles) and more than a 2" drop (for Aristocrat and Modern styles) in question. Measure the length of the biased panel to the next foot and be sure to include a post at the top and the bottom of the bias. Include the dimensions shown in the illustration to the right. ![]() Tapered Panels Tapered panels allow for a fence with a level top line while adjusting for changes in ground elevation, Be sure to note the height of both ends of the tapered panel as viewed from outside the fence line. ![]() Curved or Arched Panels Curved panels are used to soften a corner or to match an existing design or to create a soft flowing fence line. Be sure to include the measurements indicated by the illustration to the right. Show dimensions on the plan if curved panel and on the elevation if arched panel. ![]() Notches A notch is a situation where a corner of a gate or a panel is cut out to facilitate installation around a low wall, or other small obstacle the fence will have to fit around. Fully describe any cut outs in the fence. |
