I've been on a fence kick this year for the graveyard. I really should have just made one myself, but instead I hunted one down at the last hour. It's a landscape fence from lowes and it looks good. I'll put a little moss and creepy cloth on it and bang- creepy halloween fence on the cheap. It's 8' lengths and it was 10 bucks a roll. I bought 7 rolls for my needs. I never realized that garden fence went out of stock though the winter. I was lucky to find this! If you're caught short, I recommend trying this product.
This pic shows a nice stake on the fence. It has three of them per 8' length. I thought that was awesome. Turns out it's not nearly enough, but it did hold it up for placement, until I re-enforced it.

That's pretty cool. And it rolls up? That looks like it was made with haunters in mind.

There are other holidays besides Halloween? When did they start that?

I need to take some notes here I've been doing it the hard way. LOL

Yep, rolls up into very manageble bundles. Seems like it was made for haunters in mind, but in fact it's lanscaping fence. I can't imagine it would last very long in that role though. Doesn't seem very durable for year round punishment. It's cedar wood and I'm sure it will weather nicely for a good look. I believe it's 18" tall too- nice height. Like I said though, I was lucky to find it. All landscape fence was almost gone. It's something to keep in mind next spring, for those of you like me that look for this kind of thing.

I've got something similar, except that the pickets are white, and are held together with upper and lower runs of heavy gauge wire. I bought it at Lowe's as well. Here's a picture from a couple years ago that shows the fencing.

Here's also a picture of the fencing from the Lowe's website. $20 for a 15 foot section of fence.

I secured it at the ends and somewhere near the middle of the section by driving in stakes and zip-tying the fence to the stakes.

I was just in Sea World in San Antonio and they used beach/sand fence with points cut in the top and painted black. It has the same advantage as yours as far as rolling up but it uses wire which should be more stable. I am always looking for easy storage during the off season.

Nice! Easy storage. That's the way to do it
