Sketch and measure each run, record gates and widths, and identify corners, slopes, retaining conditions, obstructions, removals, access, and restoration.
Confirm boundary assumptions

Specify the installed system
Require height, material and grade, posts, spacing, footing or concrete method, rails, panels or pickets, fasteners, gates, hardware, finish, warranty, and exclusions.
Check local restrictions
Confirm zoning, height, setbacks, corner visibility, pool barriers, utility locating, association restrictions, permits, inspections, and responsibility for changes.

What this Royal Oak range does—and does not—mean
The 1.10 adjustment is a broad planning assumption used consistently across HomeScope examples. It is not a measured price index or claim about the Royal Oak market. Material, height, gates, posts, soil, terrain, access, removal, property-line work, utilities, contractor availability, and written local proposals determine actual cost.
