A modular privacy fence, which includes an upper rail, comprises a plurality of fence picket dividers on opposed outer side surfaces of the upper rail. The modular privacy fence also includes a fastener attached to the end of the upper rail, wherein the fastener is arranged to secure the upper rail to a fence post, and a bottom rail with a trough configured to receive a bottom portion of fence pickets. In some embodiments, the upper rail is configured to receive fence pickets between adjacent dividers. In such arrangements, the first plurality of fence picket dividers on a first side of the upper rail is offset from the second plurality of fence picket dividers on the opposing side of the upper rail in a direction parallel to the upper rail.

A knockdown fence assembly and methods thereof are provided. The knockdown fence assembly comprises a first connector piece, a first plurality of horizontal connectors, a second plurality of horizontal connectors, and a plurality of connector fasteners. The first connector piece includes a vertical main connector body with first and second pluralities of horizontal connector support pieces extending from the vertical main body in opposite directions. The first plurality of horizontal connectors are coupled to the first plurality of horizontal connector support pieces and extend into the vertical main connector body. The second plurality of horizontal connectors also extend into the vertical main connector body and overlap with the first plurality of horizontal connectors to define overlapping end portions. Each connector fastener extends through the vertical main connector body and a pair of the overlapping end portions of the first and second pluralities of horizontal connectors.

Fence assemblies are assembled from T-posts and crossmembers which may comprise rails formed from C-channels. The T-posts and rails are formed from pultruded fiberglass and can be connected together using bolts and nuts or push rivets. Cross members comprising wires or pultruded, fiberglass tubes may also be used.

A two piece fence line post cap is disclosed, including a cap having a top component releasably engaged with a bottom component. The top component having a U-shape to retain a top rail of a fence between a top surface of the bottom component and the U-shaped top component. The bottom component is a cylindrical shape having an open end to receive the top rail.

The invention relates to a fence/railing/gate element comprising a base frame (16) that has a multiplicity of vertical bars (18; 18′) connected to a lower support profile (20; 20′; 20″; 20′″; 2″″), wherein the lengths of the vertical bars (18; 18′) are greater than the horizontal distance between two adjacent vertical bars (18; 18′). In order to extend the possible uses of such elements, it is provided according to the invention that between two adjacent vertical bars (18; 18′), in each case one flat filling element (24; 24′) is inserted for filling the space between two adjacent vertical bars (18; 18′), the height of which filling element—measured in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the lower support profile (20; 20′; 20″; 20′″; 20″″)—is greater than its width, wherein the support profile (20; 20′; 20″; 20′″; 20″″) is arranged vertically below the filling elements (24; 24′) and the region vertically above the filling elements (24; 24′) is open.

Safety rail assemblies comprise horizontal beveled rails having a beveled face, a width, a height, a bottom, a back, and a bevel angle. The safety rail assemblies are configured to selectively attach to horizontal rails and pickets of one or more fence segments. The bottom of the safety rail assemblies attaches to a top of the horizontal rails. The back of the horizontal beveled rails attaches to the pickets. The bottom is a horizontal plane. The back is a vertical plane. The beveled face comprises the bevel angle and represents a face of the horizontal beveled rails being non-horizontal and non-vertical between the back and the bottom.

A protective barrier includes a first end piece configured to be anchored and secured to a surface, a second end piece configured to be anchored and secured to the surface, a rail extending between the first end piece and the second end piece, and a cable extending through the rail and having a first end attached to the end piece and a second end attached to the second end piece. The rail has a first end mechanically coupled to the first end piece and a second end mechanically coupled to the second end piece.

The present invention comprises a brace adapted to secure one or more fence rails to a fence post. The present invention brace may optionally be installed onto an existing fence or on a new fence. The invention includes a fence post brace member adapted to connect to one or more sides of a fence post and a fence rail brace member adapted to connect to two or more sides of a fence rail. The fence post brace member may form a vertical picket fastener slot for use in affixing a picket to the fence post. The fence post brace system may be adapted for use with alternative fence post arrangements such as those having a fence rail positioned above and supported by the fence post and those defining a single channel for receiving a fence rail.

A fence or fencing system with engineered-wood fence pickets installed or mounted on metallic rails by special wood-to-metal pins or fasteners. The wood-to-metal pins or fasteners are driven linearly through the pickets and the rails to secure the pickets to the rails. The engineered wood pickets may be treated. The fence rails may be made of any suitable metallic material, such as, but not limited to, steel, aluminum, or similar metals. The rails generally extend horizontally between posts which are installed into the ground. The posts may be made of any suitable material, including, but not limited to, steel, aluminum, similar metals, wood, composites, or combinations thereof.
