We just moved into a new place, and the neighbor's AC unit is like a super-loud dentist drill. The video is here if anyone wants to listen: [url]https://youtu.be/A6iYKziRJ64[/url] In real life it is a lot louder. The attached picture shows where it is in relation to the kitchen door. I'm thinking the problem is the sound goes right through it, then bounces around the whole house, to the point where if the bedroom doors aren't closed you can hear it on the other side of the house. I wanted to replace the door with a solid, more soundproof one but my wife vetoed it on aesthetic grounds, and in any event that won't help in the backyard or sun room. So next step is trying to figure out the best type of fencing to cut down the sound. We were going to replace chain link around the whole yard with a gap-less wood fence, but I know wood doesn't cut down sound that much. Is there any material at this section which would make a better option? I was thinking mass-loaded vinyl attached to the already-existing chain link fence there, can that be out on its own or does it have to be protected from the elements? Is there some material that would be better here that I'm ignorant of? [attach]95967[/attach]

[left]Actually had a deer break through fence and break 2 rails. Individual rails are locked into a track with a Nipple an hole set up. Anyone know how to remove rails without replacing the entire section? I have a section piece but had to hacksaw out the rails. Would like to replace without wrecking pieces [/left]
