"Racked" Aluminum Fence Panels	Stair Stepped Aluminum Fence Panels
Standard aluminum fence panels can rack, about 4 - 5" per panel. Easily figure out how many fence panels need to be racked or heavy racked punched by dividing the length of the slope by either 6 or 8; available panel widths. Anything more than a slight slope, will require one of the following two options:
OPTION 1 - Racked Typical for residential applications Racked and heavy racked panels are configured at the factory. Holes where the pickets go through each horizontal rail are widened to allow the fence panel to easily flex or "rack" on site during the installation process. You cannot flex and install a racked / heavy racked panel on-site with the Rings option. Vertical Swivel Mounts will be needed for heavy racked panels only. When in doubt, order a heavier rack; you can always install a racked panel, straight.	OPTION 2 - Stair Step Typical for some commercial applications Stair-Step the aluminum fence panels. This will require Blank Posts and Straight Rail End Mounts. You will want to order longer posts than typically required so that you can attach two aluminum fence panels to one post....at two different heights.
You will need to order Blank Posts for each and every fence to fence panel connection. You will also need to order mounts to connect your panels to each post. The type of mount is indicated below:
"Racked" Aluminum Fencing	Stair Stepped Aluminum Fencing
For Heavy "racked" fence panel to post connections only, you will also need to order Swivel Mounts - Vertical.	For All stair-stepped fence panel to post connection, you will also need to order Straight Rail Mounts.
