How we build dog-proof fencing in Haringey
1.8m closeboard, no gaps under 40mm, 150mm concrete kicker or 300mm buried mesh apron, closing gate with drop-bolt into a socket. On Haringey jobs we adjust for ladder-street back-to-back gardens mean every fence run has two owners and three neighbours to keep informed.
Property mix locally: Victorian terraces (Harringay Ladder, Crouch End), 1930s semis in Muswell Hill, and post-war estates around Tottenham. Typical gardens: long thin Victorian rear gardens with London clay and mature street trees. Postcodes we regularly service: N4, N8, N15, N17, N22.
Why this spec, for dog owners
- no gaps at ground level — the single most common escape point on standard fencing
- hinges and drop-bolts sized so a dog leaning on the gate can't work it open
- buried mesh apron stops digging without spoiling the finished look above ground
Where dog-proof fencing isn't the right answer
- — very small terrier breeds that can squeeze under 40mm — full mesh apron is the right answer
- — conservation frontages where a mesh apron is not permitted; a brick kicker course is the alternative
Typical dog-proof fencing briefs in Haringey
- → closeboard set into a shallow concrete kicker so a small breed can't dig underneath
- → gap-free gate lines with a drop bolt and a low kicker plate to stop nose-under escapes
