Installing a fence on sloping ground<\/strong> can be daunting! Whether dealing with significant elevation changes, gently sloping terrain, or challenging ground conditions<\/strong>, installation is entirely achievable\u2014just slightly more technical. That is why our Districlos experts<\/strong> guide you step by step<\/strong> through the installation of your rigid mesh fencing. <\/p>\n

What You Need to Know About Sloping Ground<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Having a garden with more or less pronounced elevation changes can be a barrier to purchasing your dream home.<\/strong> On the contrary, sloping terrain provides more fertile soil<\/strong> for growing your favorite plants. You can work with the different levels of your garden by adding stone retaining walls<\/a> to structure the terrain. Let us return to our fences! On flat ground, panel levels must be identical<\/strong> to maintain proper alignment. In our situation, you will have a choice between stepped installation or sloped installation.<\/strong> We will explain step by step how to install your fence on a slope. <\/p>\n

2 Installation Methods<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To install your fence properly, the important thing is to know your terrain well.<\/strong> We recommend calculating the slope gradient to determine whether the slope is gentle, moderate, or steep.<\/strong><\/p>\n

How to Calculate the Gradient?<\/h3>\n

To calculate the gradient of your terrain, divide the elevation change (height between the starting and ending points) by the horizontal distance of the terrain<\/strong> then multiply by 100.<\/strong><\/strong> For example, if your elevation change is 10 m and the horizontal distance of the terrain is 100 m, your slope will therefore be 10%. Between 4% and 15%, the slope is classified as gentle. From 15% to 30%, it will be moderate. Beyond that, the slope will be steep.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stepped installation<\/strong> This is the easiest technique, provided you have a retaining wall<\/strong>. The fence will therefore be fixed with mounting plates<\/strong> on the wall at different levels. Thanks to the wall, the fence will perfectly follow the slope of the terrain. <\/p>\n

Sloped installation<\/strong> Here, it will be necessary to cut your mesh<\/strong> in order to properly align the fence. This installation is ideal for panels over 130 cm<\/strong> because your posts will be set in the ground and therefore more resistant. This is precisely the method we will break down for you… <\/p>\n

 The choice of installation method is now simply a matter of aesthetics and personal preference!<\/p>\n
