Hi
I'm about to fix 4 lattice trellis panels to an 8 metre long boundary wall ,the trellis to be approx 18 inches higher than the 5' wall.No problem except that the wall and yard slopes away and is probably 18" to 2' lower at one end. It will be fixed to uprights 3x2.
Do I fit the trellis so it is level all the way,or step it down as I go?
Hope this makes sense
Thanks

Can the panels twist, or are they fixed. If fixed, step them, if they can twist, bend them to follow the line of the fence.
 
Thanks for reply,Can't get there till next week, how do I post a pic?

Not sure what you mean by twist. They are 6x3 Diamond trellis, will be fixed on 3x2 posts fixed to brick wall,with approx 18 " above wall level.
Thanks

Some trellises are pinned by a staple at each joint, and therefore won't twist; others only have a nail in them, so can be knocked out of shape.

Ok I see, they seem to be dovetailed at the corners
