Metal picket fencing on a plinth: coordinating sheet steel and the base
The plinth forms the lower part of the fence and strongly influences its proportions. The same picket looks different above a low base than above a high, massive base. Metal fence pickets can be combined with various plinth solutions if the structure has been properly designed. However, appearance must be separated from the method of fixing. The mere presence of a concrete plinth does not mean that the infill can be attached to it arbitrarily or that the steel sheet can be supported on it. When choosing the picket length, take into account the plinth height and the clearance above its top surface. The picket length is not the same as the total fence height. Overlooking this distinction can result in a bay higher than intended. On the sketch, also show the target ground level on both sides. The ground in the garden is not always at the level of the pavement.
