Meridian Fence Supply - Schenectady's Top-Rated Privacy Fence Installation

Frost heave is a frequent problem in upstate New York, especially in Schenectady’s clay-heavy soils. Meridian Fence Supply combats this by setting posts deeper than the frost line—typically 48 inches—and using a concrete base that extends below the freeze zone. They also add gravel at the bottom of the hole for drainage, reducing soil movement. This method keeps vinyl, aluminum, and chain link fences stable through winter thaws.

Meridian manufactures hundreds of custom vinyl fence styles, along with aluminum and chain link options. Their vinyl is made from partially recycled materials, and each project is fabricated to order. Styles range from privacy panels and picket fences to ornamental designs. They cater to both homeowners and contractors, with products available for distribution throughout the Capital District and Saratoga County.

Yes, sagging gates are a common issue due to heavy use or frost heave. Meridian’s repair service includes adjusting hinges, replacing worn hardware, and reinforcing gate posts. For aluminum or vinyl gates, they can realign the frame and add tension cables if needed. They also offer weatherproofing treatments to prevent future sagging caused by moisture and temperature changes.
