Its crazy how many peeps here cant see there are two separate fences with a no mans land gap between. It's really weird because Ive seen this on properties more often then I would've expected I would.

One of the most common scenarios ive seen this is when neighbor A has a pool and put the required perimeter fence for the pool but not at the property line. Also the pool and fence would be installed first. Then neighbor B put up a fence after and told the cobtractor to run their property line. I say contractor because they do as told by person paying, if it was diy fence by owner theu wouldve talked to neighbor and butted the fences back to back w/ no gap. It'd explain the neighbor not caring about the protruding screw out the back because they've never seen a single person between the two fences the entire time they put the fences up.

Other scenarios are quick fix to contain animal till full fence replacing is installed. Or neighbor with bucktooth fence, from the picture angle, looks like they have no sight line to that part of fence from house and said fucked if I care.

You can easily get rid of those nails sticking out with just a hammer.

Hit it from the top. Cover your eyes. Hit it from the bottom. Hit it from the top. Off it flies, good luck finding the broken off piece.

No bolt cutter needed.

So they have a hammer but no saw

Perhaps the neighbor is just going for a taller fence... Over time.

Yes the screw length would be a big concern.

Neighbor is slowly transitioning to better fortifications, barbed wire will come in after the fence is taller /s

As someone with buck teeth, I see no issue.

Presumably the fence runs between their property so they have to see it every day. Also those exposed nails could be hazardous to pets or children.

It's also pretty trivial to cut the boards to length and use appropriate fasteners. Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I suspect this kind of carelessness is present in other parts of the neighbor's life. They've probably gotten on OP's nerves before.

Since the photo was taken from the inside, he either went into the neighbors side to take the photo or it's his fence.

Look at the shorter fence in the foreground. It looks like the space between the two fences is probably a line between the properties, and the neighbor did their fence backwards from what you're imagining, whereas the foreground fence is oriented the way you'd expect.

Has the same thought

Get your bolt cutters out and solve the nail problem. Apart from that, it’s meh.

But in 20 short years at least the color will match!
