Some kids are lazy, some are not, its always been that way.

Most pro fence installers will drill through each concrete post and install "security screws" to prevent panels being lifted, but to allow them to be removed for maintenance, the last thing you want is these to be removable from the outside.I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

Try the wedges to stop them lifting the panel and plant some prickly bushes in case they decide to climb over instead.0
