An animal proof fence (1) comprising one or several panel elements (2) which are provided to extend upright to form a barrier, wherein the fence (1) comprises an upper zone (A) wherein at the height of the upper zone (A) the one or several panel elements (2) comprise a smooth unperforated surface on which reptiles, such as snakes, amphibians and small mammals cannot climb and a lower zone (B) wherein at the height of the lower zone (B) the one or several panel elements (2) comprise perforations allowing view through the fence (1).

A flexible fencing system capable of negotiating topographical variations of surfaces without any negative effect on the strength of the fencing system and comprised of an initial post, at least one intermediary post and an end post. Each of the initial and end posts includes a plate extending distally from the posts. The intermediary posts include two plates extending distally from the intermediary posts where the angle between the distally extending plates is 180°. Braces having plates at each end are located between and connect to the posts at connection points formed by the plates of the braces secured to the plates of the posts. The connection points form a hinge providing flexibility to either incline or decline the brace relative to the preceding post, the variation of the brace inclination or declination determined by the topographical variations of a surface.

The present invention comprises a relocatable high security fence system that may be provided where it is prohibitive to install by bolting to the ground or otherwise damaging the ground that may comprise a fence panel system attached to posts with bases and adjustable braces.

An anchoring device for a fence, wherein the anchoring device comprises at least one fence post and elongated support beams (1, 2, 3) connected to the fence post to support the fence post, wherein the fence post comprises a post portion (4) comprising a lower section which is provided to extend substantially underground and an upper section which is provided to extend substantially aboveground in installed state of the anchoring device, wherein the anchoring device comprises a first and a second said support beam (1, 2), wherein these support beams (1, 2) are connected to the post portion (4) at the height of the lower section of the post portion (4) in such a way that the first and second support beam (1, 2) extend opposite each other, extend beyond the rear part and are provided to extend substantially underground in installed state of the anchoring device.

A fence bracket (10), a fence bracket system, a kit of parts, a fence assembly and a method of manufacturing a fence bracket are described. The fence bracket (10) is suitable for use with a fence panel. The fence bracket has a body (12) having a base (14), a front wall (20), a first side wall (16) and a second side wall (18); and a support (22). The support (22) is provided on the front wall (20). The support (22) is configured to connect to a fence post. The front wall (20) has a region comprising an aperture (30) suitable for receiving an ancillary component (70).

A screwless modular fence system includes elongated rail segments 414, 412, 410, 408, 406, 404, 400 that connect to fence posts 200. When connected, they hold boards 300, 302, or 304 in place. The rails are held together by corner brackets that slide into the rails and fence posts. When in place, the fence panels are then held together by nuts that slide through the fence post rails and are attached by a fastener slid through the opening of the nut and fence post. Fence cap completes the connection by locking the nut and other components in place.

A bracket device for use with a misaligned post, the bracket comprising a first bracket portion for receiving a first end portion of the post, a second bracket portion for receiving a second end portion of the post, a pivoting means between and connected to the first bracket portion and the second bracket portion, wherein one or more angles of the misaligned post is adjusted using the pivoting means to correct the alignment of the post. The pivoting means includes a locking mechanism to secure the angle of the post. The bracket device may be installed on a fence that is in place, enabling repairs without removing the fence. As well, the bracket device may be utilized as part of the initial installation and construction of a new fence.

The fence system attaches to an aluminum or steel rectangular base post in concrete or the ground. The inside wall of a fence column slides over the base post. The fence column also has an outside wall around the inside wall. Each of three side of the fence column has an elongated slot, which receives one end of a slat. A bracket may secure the slat to the fence column. The fence system also has a gate of the same style as the rest of the fence. A lockset housing replaces one fence column. It receives slats on one side, and the lockset's latch projects from the other side. A hollow post has a slot facing the latch when the gate is closed. A latch cover is held by the slot, and an extension of the latch cover extends along the lockset housing to block surreptitious opening the gate.

A stanchion surrounding assembly includes a first plate that has a first recess integrated into a first engaging edge of the first plate. The first recess accommodates a stanchion to inhibit vegetation from growing around the stanchion. A second plate has a second recess integrated into a second engaging edge of the second plate. The second recess accommodates the stanchion to inhibit vegetation from growing around the stanchion. The second plate engages the first plate when the first plate and the second plate are positioned against the stanchion. In this way each of the first plate and the second plate forms a disk surrounding the stanchion.
