It indicates concern for the fate of the couple, but now it will be possible to take the first steps to protect the emerging intimacy from outside interference. A girl in love will establish a trusting relationship with a young man, and a spiritual relationship will be revealed.

Freud's dream book explains in detail why you dream of a fence and the attempt to build it - this is a projection of distrust of everything connected with love relationships, visualization of an attempt to isolate oneself from love experiences. The dreamer is given a hint that he is too carried away, protecting his inner peace from the invasion of passion. Only by opening your soul to passion can you fill your life with real happiness.

Having seen in a dream how a loved one makes a fence, it is not difficult to guess about the partner’s readiness to take decisive actions to establish trust and strong relationships.

Destruction of the fence

Life is unstable, sometimes we build, sometimes we break - this is reflected even in dreams.

Dream book of a psychologist. G. Miller deciphers the dream of a dismantled fence as follows. If in a dream friends climbed onto him and fell down with him, you should warn them against risky, dangerous undertakings.

If the dreamer himself simply knocked it over in a dream so as not to interfere with moving on, this is an excellent harbinger - he will achieve the impossible thanks to determination and energetic actions.

Wickets and holes

An attempt to penetrate through broken boards in a dream threatens minor financial losses, but indicates perseverance and confidence - the end justifies the means.

Freud's dream book gives a useful explanation of why you dream of seeing a fence with holes: you can lose something, so you need to be extremely attentive, collected, and vigilant. Peering through a hole in the fence means you will soon regret the loss. A hole in someone else's fence means health problems for its owner.

But passing through a gate in a fence foreshadows completely correct actions, which, however, will lead to an awkward situation, humiliation received from those who should be grateful to you.

Jump over the fence

From the point of view of esoteric philosophies, a hedge is a symbol of loneliness, isolation, and separation from loved ones. Jumping over a high fence in a dream, the dreamer imagines a quick meeting, a reunion with his family after a forced separation.

The very method of overcoming an obstacle speaks volumes about the style of dealing with difficulties that arise in reality. In this case, the dream images show the decisive, uncompromising character of a person who knows effective ways achieving the goal.

Climb over the fence

Freedom-loving natures do not tolerate restrictions even in their sleep. Seeing a picket fence or a fortress wall, they strive to look behind it - the unknown beckons.

A low fence symbolizes, according to Freud’s dream book, an obstacle that does not need to be stormed. Accordingly, if a person climbs over such a fence in a dream, in reality he will be able to find workarounds to solve emerging obstacles.

To influence, to enlist support from above, to weave intrigue, to gently, insinuatingly persuade someone to make the necessary decision - in the near future the dreamer will not act “head-on”, he will have to show resourcefulness, and he will cope with this brilliantly.

Fence theft

Why do you dream of a new, brand new fence? The dreamer expects success on the path of creative work. He will really create something new - perhaps it will be an invention or a cool designer item, but the reward - material and moral - will bring great satisfaction.

An absurd dream about a fence being suddenly stolen may be a projection of real fears regarding possible losses, thefts, and embezzlement. They also contain predictions - among the heroes of the visions one must look for a suspect in theft or embezzlement.

But on the other hand, dream books hint that such “theft” of the boundaries of what is permitted in a dream expands freedom and opens up new opportunities. Why do you dream about such an incident? To overcome isolation, open statements about your desires in personal relationships and in business. The consequences can be very serious; not everyone will accept frankness, but the person will definitely become more effective.

Whitewashing and painting

Dream books promise a quick move for those who painted the fence in a dream. You can start packing your bags. If the fence was whitewashed, such a dream, apparently due to the ancient traditions of whitewashing, overgrown with signs, has a lot of interpretations, one more interesting than the other.

Whitewashing yourself means soon being invited to a big celebration - a wedding, anniversary, important corporate event. In addition to pleasant holiday troubles, this also promises a certain amount of honorable attention to your person.

If others do the whitewashing, the dream book speaks of the gullibility of the dreamer, who may reveal his plans to dishonest scammers. Be careful. In the coming days, do not shift important decisions onto the shoulders of others - you yourself will cope much better.

Forcing someone to whitewash a fence, according to dream books, means: in reality you will try to correct the mistakes of your relatives. How persistent you were in your dream, the more successful your actions will be.

Why dream of whitening old dirt on a fence? The dreamer clearly has something to hide from others. Painting someone else's fence in a dream is a sign that you will soon be able to get rid of your annoying surroundings.

Fence color

What color was the fence you saw in your dream? Color seems to fill the interpretations of dream books with emotions.

Why do you dream of a fence painted orange or yellow? Such a cheerful design promises a festive mood. Even if the dreamer encounters obstacles on his way, he will have reasons for joy.

The red color of a fence in a dream speaks of enormous emotional stress. Maximum activity, vivid experiences, and passion are what will lead a person out of the vicious circle of self-isolation.

The meaning of the color green is multifaceted; the interpretation of dream books depends on the shade, for example, a light salad fence in a dream warns: it’s time to overcome your insecurities. The poisonous green fence is a signal to calm down, a reminder that being nervous is a bad helper in solving problems. Calm green colors, according to dream books, are harbingers of carefree days.

Fence material

If the dreamer remembers what the fence was made of, this is not accidental. Why do you dream of a fence made of a certain material? Dream books interpret a wooden fence as a lack of reliable protection. It’s not that safety is at risk, but it makes sense to insure against trouble.

The iron fence persistently reminds us of the need to defend ourselves from ill-wishers. Sometimes it is enough to emotionally distance yourself from the most active representatives in order to find peace of mind. Take a philosophical approach to the fuss of envious people - they have something to envy.

A stone fence in a dream, on the contrary, is a symbol of the fact that too tight isolation from the outside world deprives many joys. Open up to the world and receive a positive emotional charge from those around you.

With the existing variety of designs and styles, a fence in the antique style is in greatest demand. This is due to the original and unusual appearance that antique products have, as well as a unique twist in execution.

If you want to make a fence stylized as an antique tree, then you can start by building a gate. It will be the indicator of whether this type is suitable for the main design of the site. Antique gates may look different, but they all delight with the beauty of their appearance. Special attention picket fences processed with an electric jigsaw are worthy. They are reminiscent of the times when kings ruled, who decorated their domains with intricate handmade fences. You can make sure that the old fence really looks very original and attractive by looking at the photo.

Gate with figured boards

Building a gate with figured boards is quite simple. To ensure a long service life, you must strictly adhere to each step in the construction process. You will need the following materials:

• two pillars;
• four rafters;

• two handles;
• boards;
• two overhead loops;
• fasteners;
• bolt;

• four crossbars;
• four eyes;
• concrete;
• bitumen.

Required tools:

• building level;
• shovel;

• drilling device;
• electric jigsaw;
• saw.

All metal materials used must be retro-styled. On the modern market you will find many materials that will help you decorate your site in an original way. An important step will be impregnation of the wood, since without it the wood is prone to negative changes. Do not forget that in ancient times there were no oil-based paints, so it is important not to overdo it with materials in order to ensure the natural appearance of the fence.

Construction of a gate

1. Determine the width of the gate and its location.
2. Think about the opening direction. Opening inward would be more optimal.
3. To install a fence, you will definitely need a level that will help get rid of unnecessary defects.
4. When installing pillars, you first need to make 2 holes. Due to the fact that there is a possibility of freezing of the ground, the depth must be made quite large - 1.8 m is quite enough.
5. Using a shovel, you first need to make a depression, after which you need to continue working with the drill directly in the hole. Then the pillars are placed in the ground (their lower part is pre-treated with bitumen), and then concrete is poured.
6. For the gate to function properly, it is necessary to install overhead hinges. They are fastened against the transverse boards on the panel.
7. In the process of attaching the boards to the panel, it is necessary to maintain asymmetrical proportions. Initially, marking is carried out, which will be compared with the width of the figured boards. The first board is nailed in such a way that an angle of 90 degrees is created in relation to the crossbars. Later, a sample with a width of 100 mm is applied and a figured board is nailed.

Installation of an antique wooden fence

• First, figured boards are nailed, followed by edged boards. The process should occur evenly.

• A saw is used to make small grooves on the smaller boards. As a result, there is one groove on the bottom figured board, and two on the top ones.

• At the final stage, ridge-type boards are filled. This stage is important, since even the smallest gap can cause serious damage to the entire structure of the ancient fence.

Now you just need to decide on the type of lock. In the daytime, the gate can be locked with a bolt, and in the evening - with a padlock. To give your wooden fence an antique aesthetic, you can purchase a large lock with an impressive chain. In the photo you can see variations antique fences, which you might like. If you like the gate, you can begin building the rest of the fence. The construction technique will be the same as that of the gate, only more time and materials will be needed. That's it, your stylized fence is ready!

At the same time, trying to make their work as easy as possible, they perform it in such a way that subsequent installation of the fence becomes much more complicated, which entails an increase in the cost of the work. Breaking is not building, but you also need to be able to break correctly. Let's consider the prices for dismantling various fences.

The process of dismantling an old wooden fence

Reasons for dismantling

Dismantling a wooden fence

Wooden fences are easier to dismantle than, for example. In addition, the remaining material can be easily disposed of, without the need to order a special service for removal of construction waste.


You should know that wood dries out over time. Nails that have expanded due to moisture will not be able to hold up boards that have reached the end of their useful life.

Tools

Regardless of what technology is used to dismantle the fence, the work will require:

1. Fomka.
2. Shovel.
3. Saw.

These tools will be needed if the entire fence is made of wood. If they are installed on concrete material, then the issue of dismantling becomes more complicated. Here you will already need:

• special demolition equipment;
• additional labor;
• and the owner requires more effort and resources.

In any case, everyone will cope with the task and the installation of a new fence will be completed after the successful dismantling of the old fence.

Step by Step Actions

In order not to encounter difficulties, you should analyze the condition of the fence before demolition and evaluate your capabilities and skills.

Dismantling a stone fence

If , then the dismantling process becomes more complicated. It should be understood that a stone fence may contain quite a lot of entire structures.

If dismantling is carried out correctly, then entire structural elements can be saved for future use.

If you need to remove entire stone elements from the surface, you will need to stock up on a variety of tools and improvised means to carry out the mission. But with further equipment of the site there will be significant savings on materials.




Therefore, there are two types of stone fence demolition:

1. With the help of special equipment, in this embodiment, the entire structure simply collapses, freeing up space for installing a new fence.
2. If it is necessary to preserve parts of the fence intact, they are demolished using available means.

Reasons for demolition

To begin with, owners of private plots need to decide on the reasons for demolishing the fence. They may be as follows:

• Damage to several fence elements. In this case, you will only need to dismantle the part that is damaged. And some owners of the site decide to demolish everything, preserving the surviving parts of the fence, which will then be used in the construction of a new fence. In this type of demolition, as a rule, the structures that are load-bearing are preserved. If the fence design is made with columns, they can also be left in place, and then refresh their design by introducing new ideas;
• Sometimes the entire structure is damaged, in which case a complete demolition of the fence will be required, without preserving the parts. This is usually carried out with special equipment designed for dismantling, by specialists from specialized companies.
