In a fence structure comprising upper and lower horizontal rails between which fence panels are disposed each of the fence panels is connected to each of the rails by a jointed structure, the jointed structure comprising a resiliently deformable V-shaped lip a first limb of which is presented by the fence panel and the second limb of which has a free edge, with the lip disposed, with the second limb resiliently deformed towards the first limb, within a recess in the associated rail. The lip is in contact with a bottom wall of the recess with a space provided between this bottom wall and the second limb of the lip, the free edge of which is in biting engagement with one side wall of the recess at a spaced distance from the bottom wall thereof, with the first limb of the lip in bearing contact with the other side wall of the recess. There is also disclosed a method of disassembling each fence panel from each rail of the fence structure by disposing an inclined projection at one end of a joint disassembly tool within the recess in the rail adjacent to the lip to be removed, sliding the projection in a longitudinal direction of the recess along the recess to introduce a tip of the projection which is adjacent the bottom wall of the recess into the space between the bottom wall of the recess and the second limb of the lip, and continuing said sliding of the projections solely in the longitudinal direction of the recess to pry the second limb by a camming action of the inclined projection thereby resiliently to deform the second limb towards the first limb of the lip. The lip is then removed from the recess in the rail. |
