    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What fences does the Folly style replace?

    A: The Folly is the updated version of the Bufftech Imperial and ActiveYards Mulberry fence styles—featuring improved performance and contemporary visuals.

    Q: Can this fence be installed on sloped terrain?

    A: Yes. The Folly panels can be stepped or adjusted to accommodate mild slopes with the proper installation techniques.

    Q: Is the 3" spacing secure enough for backyards?
