Roelfs Custom Fencing - Harlowton's Experienced Privacy Fence Installation

The main cause is the combination of high winds and the region's loose, sandy soil. Over time, standard posts can shift. Roelfs Custom Fencing solves this by setting posts deeper, often below the frost line, and using concrete or gravel backfill for stability. They also choose posts with a larger diameter to resist wind pressure, keeping your fence straight and secure.

A common sign is a gate that drags on the ground or won't latch properly. This often happens when the supporting post has shifted due to wind or freeze-thaw cycles. If you see gaps between the gate and the frame, or if the hinges are rusted or pulling away, it's time to call Roelfs Custom Fencing. They can reinforce the post or install a new, heavier gate that handles the local weather.

Absolutely. Roelfs Custom Fencing specializes in wind-resistant designs. They recommend using materials like heavy-gauge wire mesh or board-on-board wood fencing with gaps to let wind pass through. They also use stronger bracing at corners and gate posts. For properties near the Musselshell River or open fields, they can adjust the fence height and post spacing to reduce wind load.
