Default Fence posts with metal pipe last longer?

A chain link fence on a property line is a trespass preventing marker.


Is this unique to chainlink fencing?

It is unfriendly by saying, "This is mine. Do not pass".


This "logic" certainly applies to a privacy fence: "This is mine. Do not
pass and I don't even want you to SEE what's beyond."

The only unfriendly chain link fence is one around an inground pool,
other unsafe area, or an animal enclosure.


All other chainlink fences are friendly?

Yours is an ahem INTERESTING outlook on fencing.

Most fencing is for a utilitarian purpose. The rest, surely a vast minority,
is purely for asthetics. That, then, insists that the owner has a rather
weird sense of asthetics as NO fence is the ultimate in that regard.
