Recent Arab projects
Representative projects — details adapted from real installs in this area, names and specific addresses generalized
What our contractors ran into
Lake-adjacent lot with a slope toward the water. Standard chain link tension would have pulled the line crooked across the grade. Our contractors added an extra tension post mid-run and adjusted the top rail in two sections to follow the grade rather than fighting it.
How it finished
Two-day install. Black vinyl coating holds up better than galvanized in the lake humidity.
What our contractors ran into
Town lot with one close neighbor and a shared driveway. Our contractors set the fence 6 inches inside the property pin (per the survey) and confirmed the layout with both neighbors before digging.
How it finished
Two-day install. Pre-build neighbor conversation avoided what could have been an ongoing dispute.
What our contractors ran into
Subdivision lot with stronger prevailing wind than most Sand Mountain spots. Solid board-on-board would have created wind load. Our contractors went with shadowbox for the airflow — recommended specifically for higher-wind areas.
How it finished
Two-and-a-half-day install. Shadowbox stays tighter in wind than solid panel because it's not a wind sail.
