Can you match a fence that is already there?

Usually. Picket profile, rail height and spacing get measured off the existing run rather than guessed from a photograph.

How deep do the posts go?

Deep enough for the panel height and for the ground it is going into. That is a calculation, not a habit.

Do I need a pedestrian gate in the run?

One somewhere sensible is the thing nobody regrets and plenty of people come back to add later.

Low sun raking through the vertical slats of a dark timber gate at the end of the day. — The western tier — Acreage and horse property against the Everglades boundary — long drives, gates far from the house.

Davie · Broward County

Ground is rarely level and a fence set as if it were shows it immediately. Panels are either racked to follow the slope or stepped in clean increments — both are decisions, and the wrong one is visible from the road.

Acreage boundaries run over ground that moves. Panels get racked or stepped to the grade so the top line stays deliberate instead of wandering.

Ground that carries trucks, trailers and equipment moves under load, and anything set into it has to tolerate that.

Also inside the HVHZ

Broward falls inside the same High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as Miami-Dade, so the wind rating carries across the county line unchanged. What does not carry across is the paperwork: permitting is administered locally, and the sensible order is to ask what Davie expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.
