Q: Are fence posts always set in concrete?

• <div><p>No, fence posts aren&rsquo;t always set in concrete. If you don&rsquo;t want to use concrete footings for your posts, expanding foam is a popular alternative. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/expanding-foam-vs-concrete-posts.htm">Expanding foam and concrete</a> each have certain pros and cons. For instance, foam is easier to install and more sustainable, but concrete is sturdier and less expensive. </p></div>

Q: How deep should a wooden gate post be?

• <div><p>Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of will an aluminum fence?

• <div><p>Aluminum is among the longest-lasting fencing materials, with a lifespan of 30 to 50 years or more. One of the reasons it lasts so long is because aluminum is highly resistant to rust and corrosion. You can help prolong its lifespan by keeping it free of vegetation and cleaning it every few months with a hose and mild soap.</p></div>

Q: How long does a barbed wire fence last?

• <div><p>A barbed wire fence will last an average of 15 to 20 years, but the life expectancy can range anywhere between five and 50 years. Thicker wires last longer, as do fences made with galvanized metal. If the barbed wire fence is in a climate with harsh winters and summers, it likely won&rsquo;t last more than 10 to 15 years. Failing to keep up with maintenance and repairs will also shorten the lifespan of a barbed wire fence.</p></div>

Q: Will deer crawl under a fence?

• <div><p>Deer can crawl under a fence if it has a gap of around 6 inches or more. Make sure to close all gaps at the bottom of your fence to keep deer out, and the bottom of the material should be tightly secured, or the deer will push right through it. As an added benefit, closing shorter gaps at the bottom of a fence can also keep rabbits out of your yard.</p></div>
