Q: Can I install a wrought iron fence myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small sections. Professional installation ensures proper alignment and durability for larger projects.</p></div>

Q: Do fence posts need to be below the frost line?

• <div><p>Yes, fence posts need to be installed below the frost line to ensure stability and prevent heaving caused by freezing and thawing cycles. The frost line is the depth at which soil freezes during winter. By placing posts below this line, often around 3 to 4 feet deep or as recommended for your specific region, you reduce the risk of the ground shifting, which can lead to leaning or unstable fences. Adequate depth provides better anchoring and helps maintain the fence's integrity, ensuring it remains secure and upright throughout changing seasons.</p></div>

Q: What is another alternative to a wood or plastic snow fence?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How long does fence installation take?

• <div><p>Installation typically takes 2-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of the project.</p></div>
