I have property with about 400ft of road frontage. What do you think of using 3ft pickets 3ft off of ground. This would use half the amount of pickets, and only 2 runs of 2x4. I might could get by with using 1 run of square tubing instead of 2x4. My thinking is that driving down the road, your view would be blocked except for the little bit of exposed property beneath pickets. To view all of property, you would have to get out of vehicle and bend over to look under fence, and the top would still be at the 6ft level. If I let grass grow up to pickets right under fence, this would further block the view. Out of sight, out of mind. As long as folks can't see what I have, they won't be tempted to steal, ask to borrow,....
