more easily in <strong>aluminum fence panels<\/strong> because of their construction.\u00a0 Fence panels are screwed together, allowing the railing to be angled while the pickets remain straight up and down.\u00a0 In the fencing industry this is known as \u201cracking\u201d.\u00a0 This function allows the fence to follow the grade of your yard, uphill or downhill.<\/p>\n<p>When planning for the
