Construction and repair by own hands

An exceptional case of installing a blind fence in the country. Is it possible to put a deaf fence in the country house

Of course, not everyone likes silence and it is important for many to communicate with neighbors in areas without borders, but this happens in rare cases. Often, simple simple constructions are installed and many like to observe what and how it happens in the neighboring yard, but not all people like to be in sight. For the purpose of self-preservation, people try to protect their family life from strangers and for this they erect deaf high fences, installation   which can turn into a war with a number of living masters.

But it should be noted that the streams of sunlight can be refracted and there will not be enough light on the site. The shadow will not allow to grow the desired crop of vegetables and fruits and this will become one of the reasons for neighbors' objections for installing a deaf and high fence. What does the law say about this? What are the norms for setting a fence between neighbors? How and from what to build a reliable fence? All this will be considered in more detail.

Currently, the legal framework is not clearly established norms which regulate the height and materials of private property protections, but in district administrations, orchards, there are rules that made Accomplishment and suburban areas. Therefore, before installing a fence, it is worth familiarizing with them.

Sanitary norms and rules

When building a fence, it is worth studying the norms of sanitary rules and regulations that regulate the proper location of houses and fences. Their non-compliance will lead to penalties. To avoid costs, you should:

  • the construction of a new house to begin at least three meters from the next;
  • from construction to the fence of neighbors should be at least 1 meter;
  • plant shrubs at a distance of 1 meter from the fence of neighbors;
  • trees planted at a distance of 2 meters, if the tree in the future will reach heights of 3 meters, then a distance of at least 3 meters;
  • farm buildings, sewage pits, toilets at a distance of 1 meter.

Compliance with the above standards, before you are gathered buy a fence , relieve the discontent of neighbors, give security and tranquility.

Fire regulations

When erecting a fence, consider that it should not interfere with either neighbors or you. Think about easy access to the house in case of emergency such as fire. A firefighter can demolish an obstacle that stands in his way, and this can damage property. Therefore, consider the optimal height of the fence, which will not become an impregnable bastion in case of emergency situations.

The material itself should be fire-resistant, it is better to choose brick, concrete, metal. If you really want a natural tree, then it must be treated with specialized impregnation. Buildings should be between themselves at a distance of 6 meters, if a tree is used in the construction, then 8 meters, if the houses are completely wooden, then the distance between them is not less than 15 meters.

From what it is better to make a fence

In the norms of erecting a fence, deaf and high fences are allowed on the site from the sides of the street, in order to isolate the surrounding area from noise and dust. However, when it comes to neighbors, it should be remembered that up to 0.75 meters you can put a fence of any material, and all that is above should be enlightened. It can plastic, durable glass, mesh, forged parts.

It turns out that a deaf fence from neighbors can not be established, how then to achieve the desired seclusion? There is a way out of this situation and it consists in simply agreeing with a neighbor over a cup of tea. In doing so, discuss the material, height, timing of installation, types of fences and, most importantly, the entire contract on paper to avoid later misunderstandings.

It follows from all that has been said that it is possible to build a solid and deaf fence between neighbors, the main thing is to correctly and correctly negotiate with those who live in the neighborhood, to stipulate all conditions and come to a common opinion.

The fence parameters depend not only on your plans and opportunities, but also on some regulatory requirements  . Especially relevant is the knowledge of these requirements, when the fences between sites are considered. After all, if a neighbor is caught in a conflict, then he can challenge the lawfulness of your fence in court.

Where are such requirements defined?

The main document regulating the parameters of fences in garden and cottage areas is SNiP 30-02-97. It is here that it is written, whether it is possible to put a deaf fence between sites? And the answer to this question is this: no, a deaf fence can be from the side of the road, street or natural object, such as a ravine.

However, in this case, we consider a fence built without agreement with anyone. If you agree with your neighbors, it is quite possible to put a deaf fence in the country house between your sites. Keep in mind that it is better to arrange the consent in writing, since with the oral agreement you are not insured against various misunderstandings, such as "I have changed my mind".

What else is written about the fences?

  • The fence around the site must be obligatory, that is, each section of a summer or horticultural association must be delimited.
  • The fence between the adjacent areas should pass light and air well, which once again hints at the need to negotiate closed types of fences.
  • If you could coordinate the construction of a blind fence with neighbors, this does not mean that you can make a fence with arbitrary parameters. The height of the closed fence in this case can not be more than 1 meter. When the fence between adjacent sections of an open type (mesh netting, fence), its height can be up to 1.5 meters.
  • By the way, there are no regulatory restrictions on specific materials for the construction of fences.
  • But there is such a restriction - lags and other projecting parts should be turned inward of your site (if you are building).
  • Of course, the fence between any sites should be built strictly along the line of their delineation.

In addition, there are a number of restrictions on the distance between the fence and other objects, but this is a separate topic.

Why to deaf fences such an attitude?

We found out whether it is possible to put a deaf fence between the plots, and noticed that in normative document  the attitude towards them is slightly negative. The reason for this is as follows:

  • A blind fence disrupts the air circulation. And, if such a fence is available around the perimeter of your site, then the problem is more for you.
  • Such a fence worsens the lighting of the site, which can be a problem for a neighbor who grows something just where the shadow from your fence will fall.
  • A fully enclosed enclosure can also obstruct the flow of water during heavy rains or snowmelt.

Conclusion

Construct a closed fence between neighboring areas  it is possible, but with significant limitations in height. Regardless of your chosen type of fence, it is recommended to coordinate its installation with neighbors, in order to avoid scandals and other problems.

Neighbors want to put a deaf fence between our sites. For my site this is a sunny side, there I have a garden, and from the fence there will be a shadow. Where should I complain if my neighbors obscure my beds?

  Experts of the Public Foster Union of Gardeners of Russia answer:

For garden associations, the Code of Practice SP 53.13330.2011 is developed, which proposes the use of mesh fences between sites. However, this document is of an advisory nature, and all civil and legal disputes between neighbors are resolved in court. If a neighbor has committed a violation of building codes, you should go to court with a lawsuit to remove obstacles in the use of the site. And to appeal to the court of one discontent is not enough.

Keep in mind that only an independent expert bureau can establish a high level of shading, swamping of a site in connection with a continuous fence. It is best to go there before filing a lawsuit. The burden of proving violations committed by a neighbor is placed on the "affected" side. And only then, if the court will be on the side of the "victim", you can request that the neighbor returned the costs of examination and procedure, again through the court (Article 304 of the Civil Code -. Protection of ownership rights violations not related to deprivation of ownership).
