Fence Installation: Important Tips to Remember

Fences provide a household and even a commercial space owner a sense of security – it can prevent unwanted people from getting inside your house and keep people that are close to you safe (such as your children or your pets). But the problem with fence installation is that it can be pretty costly, especially if you hire a professional to do it.

Luckily, there are now fence installation kits that anyone can buy and install themselves. But first, it’s important to know which type of fence goes well with your taste and your property’s design. The following are the most popular types of fences:

1. Chain Link Fence
2. Picket Fence
3. Wrought Iron Fence
4. Aluminum Fence
5. Vinyl Fence

Each type of fence requires a different way on how to install a fence. For example, the following are the steps in installing a Chain Link fence:

Step 1: Prepare a layout plan for your fence. The layout should be within your property’s boundaries. Make sure that the posts are placed about 4 inches within the boundary lines, so you don’t go beyond towards another’s property.

Step 2: Determine the length of the Chain Link you will need by measuring the length of your fence line.

Step 3: Set the terminal posts (gate, end and corner posts) by first digging a hole about 30-inch deep hole with 6-8 inches in diameter. The hole should be “sloping” so that the base is wider and gets narrower upward.

Step 4: Take any marker and draw a line on the posts to mark the length of the post that should be buried. It should be at least 1/3 of the length of the posts.

Step 5: Place the terminal posts into the holes, making sure they are in the center and at the correct height. Follow the marks on the post to ensure so.

Step 6: Pour concrete mix into the post holes and trowel finish around the posts, forming a small mound that slopes, directing rain water away from the posts.

Step 7: Once the terminal posts have hardened and are stable, stretch out a rope or string to form a line between them about 4 inches below the topmost part o the posts.  This will determine your line posts. Refer to your fence layout to know the exact distance of the line posts. Then dig holes that are about 14-18 inches deep and 6 inches wide. Center the line posts and pour concrete into the holes the same way you did with the terminal posts.

Step 8: Install the top rails and hang the fence fabric. Make adjustments witht he fabric to match the exact length of the fence (you can do so by removing wires). Pull the chain link fabric until it reaches the terminal post and insert the tension bar through the fabric parallel to the corner posts. Complete the fence installation by removing excess wires.
