Local fence context

What do Encinitas fences need?

Coastal San Diego fences face salt air, sandy soil, and winter-storm wind. Plain zinc-plated nails and hinges rust out in two years near the water. Sandy soil lets posts heave during saturated winter conditions unless the concrete footings go deeper and wider than inland norms. We build coastal fence with stainless hardware, hot-dip galvanized structural fasteners, and 30–36 inch footings crowned above grade to shed moisture.
