What an A-hole. Guess he can’t afford a saw.

And those damn screws.

    You would always have the pretty side if it’s your fence. You couldn’t attach the panels without trespassing on the neighbors property otherwise.

          You do this to make sure no one can stand on the supports and pull themselves up high enough to look into your backyard.

            Fences are short enough almost anyone can pull up to look over.

            Who told you that’s a thing? Thats hilarous.

        If they don’t want it on the property line and they aren’t paying a penny, than nope, person paying gets the pretty side. Why would the neighbor who doesn’t own it or pay for it get the pretty side?

        Also, you couldn’t install it without trespassing, so you couldn’t legally build it that way anyways

          Confidently wrong. Let me know when you eventually google this and realize you’re wrong. Or you know, you go outside and look at some neighborhood fences.

            Google fortress style fence, it has rails on both sides and the fence looks identical on both sides. Sounds like you should maybe up your Google game yourself before calling someone else out.

            You realize the world operates in multiple different ways yeah? Just because your backwards country makes you do something, that doesn’t mean it’s the norm across the world you muppet.

              No shit, we have those too, but they obviously cost more so it’s not as common. And that doesn’t counter the fact that in most locations, the code is to put the nice side facing out. Again, this is the point of contention, not whether a fence with two nice sides exists. Try to keep up buddy, if you can.

              The picture is taken in the USA, if you want to join a discussion about fences in the States, then don’t interject your country’s rules. They don’t apply.

                There is no codes that say that, maybe local bylaws, but to say code is just pathologically and factually wrong.

                But feel free to provide the code that says this, if you can find it, you kind of need to support asinine claims like that.

                Also nothing about this picture or anything OP said has claimed to be from the USA, but even than, the model US building code has absolutely no specifications about what side a fence “faces”.

                You realize CODES are entirely structural and would NEVER have a stipulation, like that yeah…?

                So don’t confuse a local municipal bylaw/ordinace, with “code”, they a fundamentally different things, but of course a laymen like you would never understand a nuance like that.

                  When you finally resort to semantics to counter, you know you’ve lost, but… not only that, you’re absolutely wrong! Zoning codes are what state which way a fence must face. Lmao, how many more Ls you want to take buddy? Confidently incorrect again!

                    And still doesn’t link any, what a shocker.

                    And it’s not semantics, I know codes don’t state it, and local ordinances do, and idiots like you conflate them which makes any intellectual conversations about it nigh impossible.

                    It’s always funny seeing a lamen talk so confidently about something they have no actual understanding about.

                    But sure “codes” state that, so let’s see one than, please. So I can show exactly what you’re conflating as “code”.
