I'm going to be looking to install ~ 300' of black aluminum fencing in my back yard and will need posts/gates to go with it. I've done a little searching thus far, but just thought I'd see if anyone else has done this and had luck finding the best pricing online. Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

Aluminum isn't going to come cheap. Have you tried talking to a fencing company in your area to see if you can purchase direct or wholesale? I ask because 300 feet of aluminum fencing will fill half a flat bed truck; I cant imagine the shipping rates on that.

My next door neighbor did.
Be very cautious. Check out the gauge on the fence or however they rate the rigidity. The one my neighbor has will blow away on a windy day. If her large dogs jumps on it, he bends it.

Any chance your neighbor would share what they got so I know what to stay away from?

Some of the places I've seen online offer free shipping/discounts with orders $2500 or more, which I would have no problem meeting. I'm going to try the local box stores like Menards/Lowes/Home Dept and then a local hardware store about 3 miles down the road to try to get a wholesale price.

Man I just don't like to even look at her, let alone speak to her. I sure as hell don't want to call her as I don't trust her having a record of my call on caller ID (long story with this skank). Let me see if I see her outside picking up her dog poop and will ask her. This fence is a joke to say the least. Lots of her vertical pieces are bent from the dog pushing on them. The posts are in cement yet the entire fence rocks on windy days. If a hurricane like Wilma hits, that freaking fence is going to be embedded in my side wall of my house. Good thing I have shutters. I will take a picture of it from my window so you can see it. Some time over a cigar I will tell you how I really feel about her. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Here is a semi OK phone photo through my window.
I can try to get a better one later in the day.

Man, I knew I lived in a (female dog) with a y town but that is way too funny when you consider this is an Illinois based company and not a Florida one. ![]()
