Frequently Asked Questions
The height of rails on a ranch rail fence depends on the particular style of fence. Most commonly, the bottom rails are set 13.5” above ground. Then every rail is set 11” on top of the next. The top rail finishes off about 2” from the top of the fence post. While a three-rail ranch fence is the most popular style used around properties, two-rail fences are common in front of homes and four-rail ranch fences are used in areas where taller fences are needed to keep horses in.
Fence posts should have about eight feet of space between them, though you can have as little as 6 feet or as much as 12 feet of space. Closer spacing increases the fence's stability and can mean fewer repairs in the future. How you space your fence posts depends on its intended purpose.
Vinyl ranch rail posts come pre-routed with the rail typically located in the center of the post. They will look the same from both sides of the fence. This makes for a neighbor-friendly fence looking great from inside or outside your property.
Ranch rail fence is the most used fencing in large properties, farms or horse ranches. Since privacy on a farm or ranch is less important than the strength of the structure, this type of fencing is ideal. It's affordable and functional to mark property lines. It allows you to see land on both sides of the fence while allowing a horse to understand where its boundary is.
