I grew cucumbers on a fence this past year. Trouble was, they got too big before I found them. They were outside the area where my corn patch was and my squash that filled up all the walking space.
Justadumbblonde has the best idea — cattle panels that allow you to reach through and harvest from both sides. I’m hoping to try one of those. Justa says she buys a 16 ft. long panel and has it cut in 2. Then she has 2 8 ft. long panels. Sturday and useful for cucumbers, squash, melons, etc. Very cost effective.

I actually don't cut the panels in half, but they do work extremely well for anything that vines. Here are some photos:

On her recommendation; I used cattle panels last year. Outstanding for cucumbers!
