Fencing on a slope

  • The key to erecting a fence on a sloping site is to 'terrace' the panels - that is, keep each panel horizontal, leaving a triangular gap beneath which you can fill with a shaped gravel board.
  • Longer fence posts are required to compensate for the stepped panels.
  • Try to construct regular 'steps' along the entire fence. If that is impossible, spread any change in angle over two or more panels to minimise the effect..
