Planning the job

Plan each run of fence

  • A fence-removal project may involve one damaged section, an entire enclosure or a new opening for equipment access.
  • The start and end points should be clear, particularly where different fence types meet or a gate connects to a section that will remain.
  • Retained panels and gates may still depend on posts near the removal boundary, so the plan needs to address those connections rather than simply counting panels.

Prepare the line for its next use

  • If a replacement fence is planned, the new layout may differ from the old one.
  • Gate widths, corners and post positions can change.

Conditions to keep in view

  • Share the proposed layout or the installer’s requirements so decisions about old footings are made with the replacement in mind.
