Fencing Regulations 101

As is the case with any rules that don’t come from the federal government, regulations regarding fence installation will depend on where you are. If you’re putting up a fence in Coral Springs, you might not have as many rules to worry about compared to someone putting up a fence in another county. These regulations are put into place for safety reasons, and it’s important to be sure that you’re following them. If it’s time for you to put up a new fence, read on for a look at the nature of fencing regulations.

Fences can be great for your property. They keep kids and pets safe, add to your curb appeal, and can even protect your home and family from criminals. Unfortunately, certain types of fences can be tricky when it comes to heavy winds. If you live in an area where hurricanes are common, you should make sure you choose a fence that allows the wind to pass through. A wooden fence with no room between slats will not be aerodynamic, so it might topple over in the face of a hurricane. It’s also important to bolster your fence with extra support so that it can stand up against these winds.
