With this application your fence will be straight across the top and straight across the bottom. However, because of the extreme slope could be a significant drawback because of the large uncovered openings at the bottom of the fence. If you have pets or small children this may not be an acceptable option. So if you choose this option and need a fully enclosed fence, your options are limited and sometimes very costly. You must be aware of your local code restrictions because of the excessive height and spacing changes in some of the areas of the fence. mIiiiiiiii111111111111111 ill!ijHMi lflJJfluhIiii �llllllllllllll D Racked Fences The way to match a fence to its slope is to rack it. The racking method means adjusting the fence's rails so that it matches the slope beneath it while the pickets and posts remain vertical. This type of installation is a very common choice for pets and small children. However, with small changes in grade, small gaps might need to be addressed. The small gaps could be addressed by placing dirt and grass seed or small landscape vegetation to cover the small areas.

There are many key items to consider before the installation of your fence. • 1. Homeowner's Association: I understand that Fence Outlet will assist me in filling out the HOA Fence application and supply necessary documentation (marked property survey, photos of future fence, and copy of the contract with description of future fence) but I am solely responsible for submitting the application and providing Fence Outlet with the HOA decision/approval Letter once I receive it. • 2. Underground Utilities/Sprinklers: Fence Outlet will contact the needed locate service to detect underground lines. This will locate gas, cable, electric and phone lines that have been installed by the utility companies. These lines will be notated through the use paint and flags. Any lines not installed by those companies will not be detected. i.e. septic tank/lines, pool piping, sprinkler lines/systems, private gas lines or any other line installed by others. Also, locate companies do not mark water lines that run from the meter to the house. For this reason, Fence Outlet is not responsible for these items. • 3. Change Orders: Fence Outlet understands that sometimes changes must be made to the contract prior to the installation of the fence. Due to fabrication times, we request any changes be made a minimum of 5 business days before install. Any changes made after 5 days prior will incur a fee of $350.00 plus any costs for the changes in materials and/or labor. v/ 4. Trees/Bushes/Hedges/Plants: Ultimately, it is the customer's responsibility to clear the fence line. Fence Outlet can trim some small items such as small bushes, hedges and plants at a rate of $95.00/hour.The site is considered a construction site. While Fence Outlet will make every effort to not disturb any existing flowers or bushes, we cannot guarantee that no damage will occur. • 5.

Final payment is due upon the completion of the fence project. For repairs, full payment of repair costs is required prior to the commencement of the repair work. Please sign the completion form and provide the final payment, along with any upfront repair costs, to the foreman at the job site upon the completion of the fence.
