Questions
About the sightline checker
Is six feet always enough?
It hides most standing neighbors, but not decks, second floors or hills. Check the view from your own spot.
Are there height limits?
Many cities and associations limit fence height, and rules often differ for front and back yards.
Does distance matter?
Yes. A viewer standing close to the fence sees less over it than a viewer standing back.
