What an A-hole. Guess he can't afford a saw.
And those damn screws.
Pound the nails out so they’re back on their side. Harmless, but gets the point across(maybe).

This is why you need good neighbors. Good neighbors make good fences.

Buckfence ass bitch
What a poor job lol. Looks like the fence has buck teeth!
Those are nails. It'd be better if they were screws as the extra length would be easy to snap off. Nails are less brittle so you need to cut them off or bend them over.
Those exposed screws are way worse than the mismatched boards. Safety hazard
I'd hammer the nails back out into their side.
Cut them an inch shorter than yours, and bend the nails over so they can’t be removed.
Grab the nail heads with a pliers and push them out a little every week or so
Fuck that. Hit them with a hammer until the points are flush with the fence and the heads stick out on his side. It's your yard and property...
EDIT: Never mind, it looks like the fence wasn't exactly on the property line...
Not their fence.
Right... But they used the wrong nails and they now extend past the fence (and property line, I'm assuming). What if they had used 12-inch nails? 3-foot ones?

Hahahaha.
I appreciate your patience
What and deprive the nail gnomes of their jobs?
You are an ally I guess, just making that neighbor lose their mind over those loose nails

It's not just the posts. The neighbor used nails that are way too long. IMO that's a safety hazard.
Ram it, get tetanus. Sue.
I wish I was lucky enough to be a homeowner complaining about 2 mismatched fenceposts
Check where you are, because come on, that's the whole point of this community
Wait, are we in mildyinfuriatinghomeownerproblems?

That fence looks backwards according to the code I'm familiar with, unless you took this inside your neighbor's yard
It looks like there is a smaller fence closer to the camera that would be theirs.
You would always have the pretty side if it’s your fence. You couldn’t attach the panels without trespassing on the neighbors property otherwise.
You "always" present the nice side to others.
Maybe for a front yard fence, but not a backyard. Plus if both neighbors put up s fence against each other, you'd have no way to nail/screw the slats to the frame.
If they don’t want it on the property line and they aren’t paying a penny, than nope, person paying gets the pretty side. Why would the neighbor who doesn’t own it or pay for it get the pretty side?
Also, you couldn’t install it without trespassing, so you couldn’t legally build it that way anyways
you couldn’t install it without trespassing, so you couldn’t legally build it that way anyways
I've helped build several fences. The solution to this is talking to your neighbour like a normal person and asking if they'll let you do it.

Are there places where code actually requires the person who paid for it gets the bad side?
I hear that a lot, but it's always just been what people said.
Yes, my neighbors replaced their fence after the lockdown and I have the pretty side. There are places that make you do that. And I’m NOT in a HOA. City
I could possibly see it being required by a covenant community/HOA, but code? That seems a bit out there.
What's out there? You are obstructing the view for a neighbor, it seems fair to make it be the better looking side.
Yeah, this looks like this is OP's fence and their neighbor got sick of it
Not according to the title.
