I don't have pics but in the past I have built out of square tubing for a couple of customers. 3" uprights with 2" crossbars turned on edge to make a diamond pattern for the cross bars. Makes a good looking fence that doesn't look like everybody else's.

Here is what we are doing for the backyard, we poured an 8” wide wall 18” deep and put 6x6” anchor plates in to weld posts in place. I am doing 2 7/8” posts 5.5ft tall and will use 2 3/8” for a top and bottom rail. I will then place 2” angle iron inside the rails to hold cedar pickets. I will use flat strap to hold into place and a single run of angle iron to help prevent the wood from bowing. We have 190’ or so today, dropped $1800 today at the metal store so deff not cheap but will look sharp once completed.

Pipe and welded wire panels make a forever fence that looks nice even if you just let it rust. With the posts at 10', you can, after cutting the bells off the pipe, make the welds on top of the pipe and they don't show up at all. Welded wire panels are 20' so they weld together on the posts, making that a neat connection. Leave no open ends on the pipe and it should last.

We have all kinds of fences at our place. Along the highway we have about 3k feet of pipe and cable. This easy to repair if a drunk drives through your place and won’t rot however we have had ground shift and a pipe weld come loose.
Around one house we have the prefiert ponderosa fence. It is very nice But expensive.
My cousin has a pipe and panel fence. We put it up a couple months ago and it looks great.
No telling how much it will cost to put it in for you as we did all of ours our self and bought pipe from a pipe company in college station. But if I was guessing it would cost more due to rock. You could rent a bobcat with an auger.
