The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:

• Wood and Metal Fences: Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.

• Vinyl Fences: Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.

• Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences: Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.

• Wire Fences: Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.

The safest pool fence depends on your specific needs, such as protecting children and pets. Generally, a fence that is difficult to climb and lacks gaps that a child or pet could slip through is safest. Mesh and tempered glass are very safe options because they are difficult to climb. Mesh fences often meet height requirements, although they may not be the most durable. Solid fences made of wood, concrete, or stone can also be very effective, provided they are high enough to prevent climbing. For additional safety, you could install a pool safety net or a full swimming pool enclosure. Proper maintenance of the pool area is also essential.

A living snow fence acts much like a man made snow fence, but is a windbreak of trees, shrubs, and native grasses. It acts much like any snow fence as it controls how snow drifts and blows into specific areas. The plants that make up a living snow fence are often seen along ditches,  roads, farms and communities.

Metal fencing is one of the most expensive options and is certainly more expensive than vinyl and oftentimes, wood. Specialized electric fences and, in certain cases, concrete can be more expensive than metal, but wrought iron is one of the most expensive fencing options, which is why you see it most often on expensive estates and in affluent zip codes.
