Example below based on a Four Rail System on a typical 55″ post height (installed on level terrain):

• Use a 1″ distance between the top of the rail and the top of the post to allow the top line post bracket to be flush with the top of the post. If you want a little more of your post to show above the fence line, then additional space will be required.
• Distance between rails 7-1/4″
• For space between the ground and the bottom of the lowest rail, a clearance of 12″ is recommended.
