A fencing system and method includes: a first vertical post secured at least partially below ground; a second vertical post secured at least partially below the ground; a first rail member having a first slot attached to the first vertical post; a second rail member having a second slot attached to the second vertical post; a third rail member having a third slot; a fourth rail member having a fourth slot; a plurality of generally horizontally arranged cement composite slats positioned in a common plane formed by the first slot and the second slot forming a floating arrangement of horizontally positioned cement composite slats; and wherein the first rail member, the second rail member, the third rail member, and the fourth rail member form a frame for the floating arrangement of horizontally positioned cement composite slats.

A fence system includes posts, links and fasteners. Once assembled, the fasteners extend through holes of the posts, and each of the fasteners can couple a first end of a first one of the links to a second end of a second one of the links to secure the links to the respective post. Each of the fasteners can apply a clamping force that urges the second end of the second one of the links towards the respective post to bear against the first end of the first one of the links.

A fence stake includes a horizontal rod and a plurality of vertical rods attached to the horizontal rod or integrally formed with the horizontal rod. The plurality of vertical rods includes a set of capped rods and a set of capless rods. The set of capped rods and the set of capless rods alternate along the horizontal rod. Each capped rod includes a body portion, a cap tapering into the body portion, and a tapered end. The tapered end of the capped rod is a sharp end in one implementation. The plurality of vertical rods is perpendicular to the horizontal rod. A plurality of vertical rods includes rods of the same length. The rods are in the shape of a cylinder, a prism, a triangular prism or an oval prism, and made of metal or synthetic materials.

A protective barrier includes a first end piece including a first opening and a first anchoring member for securing the first end piece to a surface, a second end piece including a second opening and a second anchoring member for securing the second end piece to the surface, a rail extending between the first end piece and the second end piece, the rail having a first end disposed in the first opening of the first end piece and a second end disposed in the second opening of the second end piece, and a cable system including a first fastener coupled to the first anchoring member, a second fastener coupled to the second anchoring member, and a cable having a first end attached to the first fastener and a second attached to the second fastener, the cable extending from the first fastener, through the first opening, through the rail, through the second opening, and to the second fastener.

A privacy and sound barrier fence system and apparatus is disclosed. The fence is erected with interlocking horizontal or vertical panels which are held in place by posts at the ends of the boards. The boards are equipped with a tongue and groove system, configured to enable the boards to interlock, forming a solid wall segment. Each segment, referred to as a module, may be connected at a 90-degree angle, to permit a turn in the fence. Adjustable mounting points on the posts allow for the modules to be disposed in a step orientation or at a slope for non-level terrain. The boards ensure that the erected fence remains aesthetically pleasing from both the front and rear of the fence. A Santa Fe embodiment of the fence system does not employ any structural rain reinforcement connecting the posts and is capable of withstanding hurricane-strength winds.

A fence system comprises a plurality of fence posts and a fence rail. The fence rail is characterized by a fence rail longitudinal axis and a fence rail cross-sectional profile in a plane orthogonal to the fence rail longitudinal axis. The fence rail cross-sectional profile has a hollow, obround shape. Each fence post has at least one rail opening having a substantially obround shape matching the obround shape of the cross-sectional profile of the fence rail, whereby a longitudinal end of the fence rail is slidingly insertable into the rail opening. The fence rail is mounted to and supported by a bracketing pair of the fence posts, wherein longitudinally opposing ends of the fence rail are positioned within corresponding rail openings of the bracketing pair of the fence posts.

A stiffener member for a hollow elongate panel. The hollow elongate panel may include a first end wall having a groove formation formed by a pair of inner walls and extending a length of the hollow elongate panel. The groove formation may extend into the hollow elongate panel. The stiffener member may include a bight member having opposing ends; a pair of arm members respectively extending from one of the opposing ends of the bight member to provide a substantially U-shaped configuration; and a flange member extending from each of the pair of arm members. The flange member may extend inwardly to abut one of the pair of inner walls of the groove formation when the stiffener member is received within the hollow elongate panel.

A fence assembly tool is provided. The fence assembly tool may be an auxiliary tool that is removably coupled to a first fence post, to assist an individual in assembling fences. Specifically, the fence assembly tool may include an elongate body that includes one or more brackets extending therefrom. Each of the one or more brackets may be adapted to receive a first end of a cross member of a fence assembly. A second opposing end of the cross member may then be coupled to a second fence post while remaining supported at the first end by the assembly tool. This process may be repeated for multiple cross members as needed, thereby allowing a user to assemble or repair a fence without assistance from others.

A sound wall and a method of constructing the sound wall. The sound wall includes a pair of laterally spaced posts, at least one of the pair of posts including: an elongate central member, a flange extending form the elongate central member in a direction substantially normal to the elongate central member, and a fin extending from the central member. The central member, the flange, and the fin may define a cavity for receiving elongate panels. The sound wall may include a plurality of elongate panels extending between the laterally spaced posts and stacked in an elongate direction of the elongate central member. End regions of the respective elongate panels may be retained between the flange and the fin. The sound wall may include an elongate stiffener member positioned within at least one of the plurality of elongate panels.

A mounting system for separating and connecting fencing slabs which includes an end beam assembly having opposite sidewalls each having an elongated slot portion recessed within the beams. Additionally, at least one gate partition with distal ends is inserted within the recessed portion of the end beam. The distal end of the partitions includes a cap which conforms to the shape of the slot portion thereby allowing for the partition to be slidably inserted therein. Once inserted, a spacer member is then inserted within the slot portion to create spacing between the partitions inserted to the end beams when forming the fencing structure. A slidable cover is also included to entirely cover a side of the end beam when not in use. The system is utilized to form a desired fencing structure.
