Hi! Fence building underway! Planning to have 90 cm high 95*95mm posts and attach 3 rails between the posts standing 2m apart. The rails are 34*150. How would you attach them? Angle brackets? Toe screwing on the short sides or maybe both? Also, what do you think about the dimensions, will it look odd? (not planning to have pickets)
Thanks!
Thanks!

Personally, I think these fences look a bit cheap, but that's a matter of taste.P Pokereve said:Hello! Fence building in progress!

Also, what do you think about the dimensions, will it look silly? (not having any slats)
Thanks!
If it were me, I would have set them overlapping.
And have them extend by 10 cm + you can saw off the edges of the board so that there’s some character in the wood.
On second thought, my description is more for the countryside. I have no idea about your situation.
But I would probably angle the rails and likely would go with 45×145/170mm rails.

Thanks for the reply, maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I want to attach the rails between the posts and not so that they go in front.P Pappa1986 said:
How did you do it and what dimensions did you choose? Do you have any pictures of the result?P Pokereve said:Hi! Fence building underway!

I'm considering a 110 high fence and 3 or four horizontal 34x145 with space in between and I'm also thinking about the fastening.
