Abstract (en)

The present invention discloses a system and a method of assembling a fence segment of a profiled sheet material (e.g., sheet metal). The fence segment (1) consists of a set of horizontal crossbars (4) made of profiled sheet metal, the folding cross-sectional shape of which is optional. In addition, the fence segment (1) comprises connecting elements (5) for securing the rigid horizontal crossbars (4) between two vertical trough-shaped profiles (6) attached to the vertical poles (3) of the fence. Horizontal crossbars (4) can have different shapes of the sheet metal profile, selected according to the desired fence design and functionality (visibility, sunlight transmission, etc.). The assembled fence segment (1) is resistant to climatic and mechanical effects, such as sudden changes in temperature, humidity, or wind. The method of assembling and disassembling the fence segments is efficient and simple, it does not require special tools and skills during assembly, and the assembly process can be performed by one person.
