Perfectly flat ground remains ideal in terms of simplicity for installing flexible fencing<\/a> or rigid fencing. However, it is possible to proceed quickly and achieve impeccable results, even when installing rigid wire fencing on sloped ground<\/strong>. This is good news if you find yourself in this situation! You will be able to fence your property easily by following professional advice from Districlos.  <\/p>\n

Stepped or staggered installation is a relatively common technique that you can implement yourself, just like sloped installation, provided you know which method to choose and how to proceed. Let’s review these solutions that will allow you to protect your perimeter effectively. <\/p>\n

Stepped or Staggered Installation: The Simplest Method<\/h2>\n

Installing a fence made of rigid panels<\/a> on flat ground poses no adjustment problems. The successive posts form a regular line above and below due to the flatness of the ground: the lower part of the fence therefore presents an identical gap all along.  <\/p>\n

To resolve the problem of the level difference caused by the slope of the ground when the terrain is sloped, it is necessary to carry out a particular installation: stepped installation.<\/p>\n

Principle of Staggered Installation<\/h3>\n

This method will allow you to install your fence on terrain whose incline makes regular installation impossible. It consists of installing the fence panels in the direction of the slope, so as to have a minimum of space between the ground level and the underside of the fence panel. <\/p>\n

Implementing this technique requires a higher number of posts and a greater post height than in the case of ordinary installation. The work consists of offsetting successive posts while staying as close as possible to the slope of the terrain<\/strong>. The final result remains just as harmonious in appearance. <\/p>\n

Of course, you will need to perform careful calculations to determine the necessary number of posts before purchase and ensure installation that is as rigorous as possible. <\/p>\n

Districlos advice: as a precaution, it will be wise to secure the posts only after the panels are in place, to ensure the overall result.<\/p>\n

A Method Suited to Gentle Slopes<\/h3>\n

This technique is simple to implement provided the slope is suitable. Indeed, you can consider that a maximum height of 10 cm between the panel and the ground<\/strong> remains a good limit to define, in order to have an aesthetic result and a fence that performs its role properly. <\/p>\n

Districlos professional tip: if the slope exceeds the limit set for staggered installation, a solution exists to use this technique while reducing the gap between the panels and the terrain. Cut each panel vertically to obtain 2 or 3 sections and add intermediate posts during installation. With this method, the project cost is higher (need for a greater number of posts) and the completion time longer (cutting). But the result is perfect. <\/p>\n

Sloped Installation: A More Advanced and More Complex Technique<\/h2>\n

\"installing<\/span><\/p>\n

Sloped installation also consists of trying to stay as close as possible to the natural slope of the ground when installing your posts.<\/p>\n

Here, you will proceed by cutting each panel from the bottom<\/strong>, the goal being to ensure perfect conformity with the irregularity of the terrain. The visual effect is pleasing.  <\/p>\n

The only difficulty with this technique for installing rigid wire fencing on sloped ground<\/strong> lies in the need to adjust the panels one by one<\/strong>. This takes more time than the previous technique and requires great cutting precision to obtain a perfect result. <\/p>\n
