You've Never Seen A Fence Like This

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.

My grandpa built bull and horse corrals and fencing from corrugated steel, sign posts which were pretty much the same as postmasters, well piping and sucker rods. In fact, he built everything from it that he could. The stuff he put up 70+ years ago is still standing as well as the rest. Tough.

For about 100 years this has been the standard Australian suburban fence. Corrugated iron roofing is incredibly common too.

Did you think about pre drilling all the holes in the panels first? Drill about 10 at a time and use the same top sheet for every 10 panels so the holes are the same. No need to keep marking every hole

Built a fence like that 15 years ago still standing zero maintenance

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.

I had a corrugated steel fence with concrete posts we built in 1986. Smart not too concentrate too much on the posts being exact, and just cutting the wood after. I used treated 2 x 6 boards in 16 foot lengths and carriage bolts through the custom made posts. PVC pipe was used to make the holes for the bolts.

Standard fence build in New Zealand,we often lay it long wise rather than vertical. Give great lines.

I'm not planning to build a fence, but I really like this video. It was entertaining and shows off your ability to find novel solutions to a challenging task. The face and top board treatments are great ideas. Thanks for sharing.

I wanted to build a fence like this, the city (USA) said no "too ugly". Being surrounded by rotting/falling down cedar/treated pine and chainlink fences is better. Not to mention steel is recyclable. So much for being 'green' (and having a sense of taste and imagination). All over the world they use steel and in imaginative ways.

Wish we lived in WYOMING so yall could build a fence for me. Excellent job!

I'm a fencing contractor in Australia. Been doing it maybe 18 years now. You guys are the only American fencers I have ever seen do things the same as the good contractors do here! Awesome work and great explanations. I also love that you are using Knipex cutters and Strainrite tools like we do here! Have you used Aussie fence fittings for attaching steel pipe to steel round posts as rail for strainers? Worth looking into, they save sooo much welding and are just as strong if not stronger.

It's always refreshing to see someone work hard and do a great job.

2:19 Watched your 4 foot chain link video and was impressed with your presentation. This was a much more detailed install...just be able to line and set to grade all your posts with 8 yards of deliverd concrete is a feat of itself... temperature and weather was on your side! And of course your attention to detail is shown in the finished product. Thanks for sharing.

Great execution on a custom fence. We are getting ready to build a fence on 300' of property line with the neighbors. Your videos have provided tons of important tips on measuring, fasteners, cement, leveling, etc. Hornets and yellow jackets in our area (western Oregon) nest between fence panels. Something to consider based on local.

A QUALITY job guys! I like the use of a story pole for screw placement, and just enough fasteners but not too many. Aplus from a picky old carpenter, and that ain't easy!

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.

My wife and I added corrugated steel to the inside of our cedar wood fence. The main reason was to prevent fence-fighting between our dogs and the neighbor's dogs. It worked very well! The other reason was the look! That mix of wood and steel looks amazing! Y'all do great work!

Good fences make good neighbors.
