I have no fence on the yard border with my neighbour. It's 25m long, flat soil line where I would put a 1.8-2m tall fence. I want full privacy protection for a budget price (I don't live there). I would also like something I can diy as a non-diy guy (I work with electronics but no building experience). The cheapest option here is Europe is the thick wire panel fence, but I havent seen a way yet to make those completely private. I would dig holes and pour concrete into them to stabilize posts, as building a wall base is more expensive than the fence. What do? How difficult is pic related and what post distance for a windy area?
>>2963311>I have no fence on the yard border with my neighbour.For 1/2 price get the neighbor to pay for 1/2.
>>2963339Neighbour is a crazy deadbeat, won't get anything from him.
>>2963340>Neighbour is a crazy deadbeat, won't get anything from him.Humm. many such cases.You could make a wall with free pallets then cover with chicken wire and stucco.
>>2963342I would have trouble gathering 50 m2 of free pallets, desu. Location is a bit remote as well.
>>2963311tin roofing screwed to whatever frame structure will be the best full privacy per cost
>>2963345>I would have trouble gathering 50 m2 of free pallets, desu. Location is a bit remote as well.That's understandable. You might consider planting bushes, that's affordable and many can grow fast, even some rows of corn would do.
>>2963352>tin roofing screwed to whatever frame structure will be the best full privacy per costaesthetically that can look great sometimes.
>>2963352Yeah, considering that as no. 1 option atm, but looking for suggestions: what post distance for the fence to be wind-proof? Is 2m too far apart? I thought about digging a 80cm, 30cm wide hole and filling it with concrete mixed with old brick, bit people tell me contradicting things: that such a hole is too big and the post distance is too much for 25m of 1.8m high fence.
>>2963434here in burgerland its typical to use 4x4 wood posts on 8ft centers so 2m is probably fine
>>2963311You can buy prefabricated fence - segments come in 2.5m lenght. The posts need to be anchored into concrete and i'm guessing you don't want to spend money or time pouring a footing , so you would need to either pour small concrete blocks yourself, or buy bricks,fillem up with cement and burry them.
>>2963311Just get that thick, textured, coloured plastic slat fence stuff that slides into slotted concrete uprights. Doesn't cost that much and lasts for decades. Withstands wind. Worked for us, although we paid someone else to do it because that'd take me too long and its really a two man job.
>>2963311Why do you think that's the cheapest option? Like another Anon said, plant a bunch of tall bush treesOr build a fence out of limbs from a nearby forest (hopefully with permission)
>>2963434Maximum post spacing for something like that at that height is 8ft (2.4m)OC for that kind of fenceNote that you need to account for equal spacing so you don't have an awkward ass short panel at the end. If you have a 25m run, you need (11) line posts spaced at 7.5ft (2.28m) OC PLUS (2) end posts
>>2963437Wasn't it the French who came up with the metric system? Last time I was in the UK, bongs were still using lots of imperial units.
