ABSTRACT:
A fence adapted for mounting on level or uneven terrain includes generally vertical posts, generally horizontal hollow rails, and connector clips for attaching the rails to the posts. The connector clips are received within the inner cavity of the hollow rails and include an elongated opening which is adapted to receive therethrough a stud attached to the vertical post. About the opening and within the rail is provided a retaining structure which facilitates easy insertion of the stud, at various angles, but securely resists withdrawal thereof. The length of the opening is substantially greater than the width of the stud received therethrough, so that deviations of the post from a true vertical position and/or deviations of the rail from a true horizontal position in the erection of the fence on an uneven terrain may be accommodated.
