Hello,
We will be purchasing the garden fence together with our neighbors for our new build and have it installed along the property boundary.
We will have a welded wire mesh fence installed.
The fence panels will be placed exactly on the boundary line.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having the fence posts installed on your own side versus on the neighbor’s side?

And if no boundary construction is allowed, is a minimum distance of 50cm (20 inches) from the property line required? Swing gate rights are uncommon without an agricultural neighbor.

How naive. Do you really think anyone will care in 10 years how or where it was built?
If someone wants to cause trouble, you’re still responsible for providing evidence. And if it partially stands on someone else’s property, trouble is guaranteed.
Just move it 5m (16 feet) closer to your side. Then it’s definitely yours. It doesn’t matter. The whole question is pretty irrelevant. We should just be glad it only took 6 pages to settle this existential issue :-)

Wow, I think this only happens in a German forum—that a discussion stretches over 6 pages about which side of the post makes it look more like the fence was built by oneself, even though the cost was split 50/50. I recommend a solution where the posts are visible from both sides equally; that way everyone is happy 😉
