Trellis on sticks/stilts?

[oddoneoutalways]

Hello,

Wondered if anyone could help. I want to extend the height of the garden fence a bit, plus I've planted a hedge against it that when it's big enough I'd like the hedge to grow up against and will then keep it trimmed close to the top of the trellis. Should stop it all ending up over the fence too.

It's not my fence it's my neighbours so obviously I can't fix a trellis to the top of it (good job I checked I thought it was my fence... it's not!). So I want to get trellis panels but on sticks is the only way I can describe it, that I can put within my boundary behind the hedge but in front of the fence before the hedge grows too big to do it.

Quick google brings up nothing. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Yes, we have this. Wooden posts in front of the fence, trellis attached to the posts, not the fence. A good handyman type will know what you need - just fence posts and trellis, basically.

We have this. There were two in the garden already and we put in a third.

It was a very easy DIY job.

I did this. Dig a hole, put fence posts in met plates ( i think they are called met plates) which is like a metal shoe that stops the wood rotting at the bottom. Then put the fence posts in the hole and pour in concrete.

Then you can attach the wire between the posts - galvanised wire with tension buckles gets the wire nice and strong so it doesn't droop when you attach things to it.
