We put up a solid fence between neighbors
In the private sector, there is a strong desire to erect a solid fence between neighbors, because people here are accustomed to leading a lifestyle that does not tolerate spies. But does this comply with the law?
What does SNiP say about the possibility of erecting a blind fence
By studying the law on the rules for erecting a blind fence between summer cottages, you can avoid misunderstandings. But still, you’ll have to think carefully, because SNiP 02/30/97 was edited twice, the old version SP 53.13330.2011 allowed more freedom in terms of erecting a fence between neighbors. And in 2021, a new edition was adopted, denying the possibility of installing a continuous lattice-type fence.
What do the standards dictate when building a fence between neighboring plots in SNT?
Is it possible to have a continuous fence between neighbors in SNT? The regulation of documents began in 2021: now the installation of a fence is a mandatory procedure. The boundary is marked when a cadastral organization with the appropriate state license carries out land surveying and documents everything. After this, the question of what kind of barrier can be installed is decided.

For example, if a neighbor erected a fence without the consent of nearby neighbors, then this is already a judicial matter - this raises the issue of protecting the rights of the owner.
In 2021, changes were adopted that stipulate both the height and type of fence: boundary demarcation involves the installation of a chain-link mesh. There is no official permission to install a solid fence, which does not prevent experienced lawyers from finding a loophole and answering in the affirmative the question of whether it is possible to install a solid fence between neighbors.
Why is there such resistance to installing a blind fence on the property between neighbors? The whole point is that in this way it is easy to block the access of air and light to neighboring lands, and this is already a violation of the rights of another landowner.

The standards for erecting a blind fence are such that its height can be in the range of 0.75-1 m, and the air- and light-permeable part is located above it.
The open type of fence is optimal: air circulation is beneficial to the territory of both the owner and his neighbors.
According to the standards of SP 53.13330.2011, a height above the standards was permissible, but the fence should not interfere with aeration and sunlight. But the new edition is already more strict, because now only mesh fencing is allowed for SNT.
What is the best way to fence off your neighbors in the country and in the private sector?
There are three successful solutions for designing a fence, but they are not blind. You will have to play some magic with a combination of materials, or make the fence continuous to a height of 0.75 m, and decorate the upper part with mesh, picket fence or forged metal elements.

Plastic fencing
Polyvinyl chloride is a raw material used to produce various construction and auxiliary materials, including fences. This option is the best if the homeowner is limited in finances, but wants to create a beautiful fence now. Using a metal frame, you can increase strength by making a fence that will not be inferior in its characteristics to a fence made of brick or metal. The main advantage is the price, the disadvantage is the relatively low strength and service life.

Foundation. If you are building a stone or brick fence, then keep in mind that such a massive structure requires a solid foundation. The approximate depth of the trench for the foundation is 70 centimeters and the width is 40.
Installation of support pillars. Laying fence spans.
After learning more about the stages of fence construction, you will know exactly how to make a fence correctly.
What can happen if a solid fence was installed without permission
So, is it possible to put up a fence without the consent of your neighbors? Or bypassing the administrative authority?
If there is not at least one hive on the territory, which makes it possible to be fenced off by a two-meter solid fence from a neighbor’s property, then legal problems may arise.

In all other cases, with fierce resistance from neighbors and mutual unwillingness to find a compromise, the supporters of the conflict will face trial. The same thing will happen if an inspection by administrative authorities comes. Therefore, there is no need to fight pointlessly, but it is better to do everything immediately according to the letter of the law.
