Metal Residential Fencing question (post spacing)
Posted on 1/12/19 at 7:54 pm

I’m working on installing metal/iron driveway gate and fencing on the side of my house. Currently there is a wooden fence on property line then my house on the other. Fence-10’-12’(driveway)-14’-house.
My question is how I should manage how long the fence panels should be on each side of the driveway. I can do 2x panels on each side of the driveway, but this would make the panels not equal (~4.5’ on one side vs 6.5’ on the other). My other option is to do 4.5’ panels and have 2x on one side and 3 on the other.
I’m worried the latter will look odd due to such short fencing spans (particularly on the side with 3x 4.5’ panels).
What’s everyone’s opinion on what would look best?
Thanks!!!

Just put up a chain link fence instead

I’d say 3 post every 29 feet 2 inches.

Trying to keep it classy looking.... even if I did chainlink.... I’ll need to decide on how to split the posts.

350” on each side

Mine keeps my two pit bulls, Kayleigh and Brayden, from getting out and wreaking havoc on the trailer park
