Proper Fence Etiquette
The Best Automatic Security Gates
Be aware of property lines
This one is a big one. Whenever you want to install something, not only a fence, it is important to know your property lines. Part of fence etiquette is being aware of this. If you don’t know what the lines are, you could run into trouble. With the government but also with your neighbors. Property lines are there to limit the boundaries of a property. If you exceed them or do not respect them, you will have trouble. You can always go to the county’s office to ask for the records if you need them.
Communicate everything
If there is one thing that a lot of people do is install a fence without letting people know. Especially their neighbors next door. It is paramount that you talk to them as soon as possible to let them know about the installation process. Also, make sure that you inform them about the maintenance. If you are sharing the fence, you can split the expenses. On the other hand, if you’re not, make sure that you maintain it. Fence damage can also cause troubles to adjacent properties. So, now that you know about fence etiquette, you can get started with your own fencing project.
