Welded Mesh Fence Post Spacing and Fixing Method: RFQ Details Buyers Should Confirm
Welded mesh fence post spacing and fixing method should be confirmed before quotation because panel size alone does not define the fence system. Buyers should send fence height, panel width, mesh opening, wire diameter, post type, post spacing if specified, base plate or buried post detail, coating, gates, accessories, quantity, packing and drawings.
Why post spacing changes the RFQ
Welded mesh fence projects are layout-based. The same panel height can be quoted differently when the route length, corner layout, gate positions, slope, post type or fixing method changes. A buyer who sends only "welded mesh fence price" usually still needs to confirm the fence route and post details.
If a drawing is available, mark straight runs, corners, gate openings, post centers, end posts and fixing method. If no drawing is ready, send a sketch, site photos, total length, required height and preferred fence type.
For product context, see welded mesh fence, double wire fence and fence panels, posts and gates RFQ details.
