Do you stake your berries?

I'm contemplating putting raspberries, blackberries, and a Tayberry in my front yard. I've had a raspberry patch out back for awhile, but have never bothered to stake/train the canes in any way since they aren't very long (as in comparison to blackberries).

I'm curious to know if you guys stake or train your plants on a frame and what it looks like (pics very welcome). What is your method, what is the longevity of the structure, and how has it worked out for you overall? It just dawned on me that if I staked the plants they wouldn't take up quite as much room as far as width. Duh. Lol.
Thanks much!
