The method of “Following the Grade” allows your fence to contour to the natural slope of your land, maintaining a smooth, continuous line that follows the ground, minimizing gaps due to uneven terrain.
This technique is ideal for gently rolling landscapes, as it provides a secure boundary that adjusts seamlessly to the terrain. At RMFI, our standard method of installation for residential fencing is a combination of straight top and racked to follow the grade, which is designed to provide an aesthetically pleasing look while leaving gaps to a minimum.
Each section of a stepped fence is installed parallel and level to the next; following the rise and fall of the grade, creating a “stepped” appearance.
This approach is used in many modern-style horizontal and panelized fences, as well as rigid welded ornamental styles. It maintains a consistent height for each fence panel while accommodating an aesthetically pleasing modern look.
However, the stepping structure leaves gaps between the ground and the bottom of the fence on any slope and is not practical for containing animals or keeping the fence close to the ground.
Though there are different names and different approaches, each of these refers to a method used to ensure a straight and/or level top line regardless of the land’s rises and falls.
This method is perfect for those who prioritize a seamless visual flow and a clean, uniform fence line. While the top of the fence is in a straight line, the bottom may have gaps as the uneven ground rises or slopes along the fence line.
This style is great for long perimeter runs on open land, homes without finished landscape or housing developments where the grade can be backfilled, and commercial properties.
