"Stepped" Method

Stepped fences are designed to follow the contour of your land in a series of level sections, creating a “stepped” appearance. This approach is ideal for properties with significant elevation changes, as it maintains a consistent height for each fence panel while accommodating the slope of the terrain.

"Straight Line" Method

Fences built using the Straight Line method are installed in a perfectly level line, regardless of changes in elevation. This method works best on flat terrain and provides a clean, traditional look, ensuring that all fence panels are perfectly aligned and level.

"Follow Grade" Method

The method of “Following the Grade” allows your fence to contour closely to the natural slope of your land, maintaining a smooth, continuous line that hugs the ground. This technique is ideal for gently rolling landscapes, as it provides an aesthetically pleasing and secure boundary that adjusts seamlessly to the terrain.

"Line-of-Sight" Method

The Line-of-Sight method is used to ensure unobstructed views, maintaining a straight and level top line regardless of the land’s curves. This method is perfect for those who prioritize a seamless visual flow and a clean, uniform fence line.
