Q: Should pickets face in or out?

• <div><p>Fence pickets typically face out (away from your home or the garden that you're enclosing). Both the rails and pickets sit on the outside of a fence so that anyone passing by can see the finished side. Not only does the look increase your curb appeal, but it's also the neighborly thing to do when placing a barrier between two properties, even when you're <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/privacy-fence-ideas.htm">installing a privacy fence</a>.</p></div>

Q: How far apart should strands be from each other?

• <div><p>The bottom strand should sit between 12 to 15 inches from the ground. If you have a problem with small critters, you can aim for 8 inches. Three-strand fences should be 16 to 19 inches apart, four-strand fences should be 10 to 12 inches apart, and five-strand fences should be 8 and 10 inches apart.</p></div>

Q: How long does a bamboo fence last?

• <div><p>A bamboo <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-wood-fencing-last.htm">fence can last</a> up to 20 years when properly installed and maintained. Bamboo is a durable material, but to get the most life out of it, you should clean and seal the fence every few years. Staining the bamboo can also restore the appearance if the color fades over time. Use screws to fasten the bamboo, rather than twine, to ensure the bamboo fence stays together longer. </p></div>

Q: How long do fence posts last in concrete?

• <div><p>A fence post set in concrete lasts anywhere from five to over 25 years, depending on how well the concrete was applied and the fence post&rsquo;s material. Untreated wood posts in concrete could last less than 10 years, but a durable, treated wood set in properly applied concrete could last a few decades. However, all fence posts will wear out eventually, so expect to need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-a-fence-post.htm">replace your fence post</a> every five to 15 years.</p></div>

Q: What’s the easiest way to replace a fence post?

• <div><p>There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier&mdash;but keep in mind that easier doesn&rsquo;t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that&rsquo;s not available, a digging bar can help.</p><p>Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you&rsquo;re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.</p></div>
