FAQ about Our Metal Posts

How often do you need a post for privacy fence?

Taking into account that your privacy screens are 36 inches wide and the fence panels and inserts are 54 inches wide, the spacing for the fence posts will depend on the type of panel you are using:

For Privacy Screens (36 inches wide):

  • Standard spacing: 36 inches apart. This allows for one privacy screen to fit between each post with no gaps.

For Fence Panels and Inserts (54 inches wide):

  • Standard spacing: 54 inches apart. This allows for one fence panel or insert to fit between each post with no gaps.
  • Alternative spacing: If you want to create a more decorative look, you can space the posts 96 inches apart. This will allow for a slight overlap between the fence panels or inserts.

Are metal fence posts cheaper than wood?
