Abstract
Each of a plurality of fence posts includes an upright supported on a base plate. Rails, having orthogonally apertured ends for penetratingly receiving the uprights, interconnect adjacent posts and define the fence. The vertical spacing between adjacent rails is determined by spacers mounted upon the uprights intermediate the apertured ends of proximate rails. Other spacers, having one-half of a hinge or one part of a two part lock mechanism, cooperate with corresponding elements extending from a gate to support and latch the gate. A detachably attached overhead post and lintel unit engages the uprights of the posts defining a gate way to lend structural integrity to the fence sections terminating at the gate way.
