Statutory regulation of partition fences exists in many states. Such statutes may require a particular kind of fence and prohibit other kinds of fences, and may establish certain requirements of cooperation between adjoining landowners as to partition fences. Even where statutory regulation exists, adjoining landowners are usually free to execute agreements with respect to fences that are at variance from the requirements of the statutes. If there is no applicable statute, control over the construction and maintenance of fences is usually regulated by agreement between the adjoining landowners.
