    when pulling the fence tight, save time and effert by keeping the puller short and removing the excess fence just one time. (7.54) The slight loss of tension after attachment is not important.

      I used to work for a fence company and we installed these fences daily. But we would install 6 or even 7 foot high fences on commercial and industrial properties like refineries. It's a lot more to it because we would also have to run Barbed wire or even razor wire on top of the fence. This tiny fence is nothing compared to what we had to do. I really hated that job and quit after a few months.

    Great video started measuring but found out the gate is a different width, so I would have added that in the video for the terminal post. I’m actually starting with the gate first.
    Also you should add how you actually straighten out the tension wire, I had to search a different and found how you guys did that.

    Lots of things are done the hard way. You don't need to square the fence using the 456 method. you can pull a line off the house and use the eye method. This is better than having a perfect square that does not match or line up with the house. Set you corner poles and pull a string. This is the string you will use the set the rest of the poles. You only need a hole about 8-12 inches deep. You can use hand hole diggers and get the correct diameter hole. Place the pole (terminal or line) in the hole and use a 9in level (or corner level in you prefer) to level the pole to the string. Then you take a pole driver and drive the pole down until the top of the pole is 45in out of the ground (for 4ft fence, this gives you the correct height once you install the top rail and loop cap). This also puts the bottom of the fence just above the ground and you don't have a 6in gap on the bottom(it defeats the purpose of a fence) Place DRY cement in hole to ground level and cover with dirt. You can install the rest of the fence immediately and don't have to wait for cement to set up. Some other small things are: you need to tighten the tension wire with a puller or other method, you can roll the fabric out standing up(its difficult to stand up 200ft of fence up), you only need about 5 ties and pig rings(on the bottom) for each section.
    I'm sure there are other things but this should get you started.
    And yes, i install fence professionally and have never had one fall down/blow away or have a complaint on the way it was installed.

    A family member recently bought a new house and asked the contractors to build a 6-foot high privacy fence around the back yard. They specifically told the contractor they wanted a 6-foot high fence, but that it must be level across the top of the fence. The backyard sloped or varied in height by about 1-2 feet in certain areas.
    When the contract was done, the home owners complained that the top of the fence was only 4-feet high in some areas and they were concerned their dog would jump the fence. They demanded the contractor tear down the fence and rebuild it. He refused saying he built it as per their specs. If they wanted it 6-feet high across every section of the fence, they’d have to pay to have up to 2-feet of dirt removed at a high price as he’d have to use a Bobcat, dump truck, and labor costs. They blew a fuse!
    Moral of this story. Make sure you both understand what the end result will be or look like.

      Since they said it must be level across the top he followed their demands. It's not up to him to say their specs are wrong. He can't tell them what's important to them. He was right, they were wrong. Pay for your mistakes, don't get mad at others for following your directions. Be adult enough to admit you blew it. Anger is the easy way out.

    I've always wondered if (assuming you could afford it) you could bury the bottom of the entire length of the fence in concrete - basically dig a trench underneath the fence maybe a foot and fill it up with concrete up to a few inches above the bottom of the post. It would probably be expensive but seems it would a great way to keep any animals from digging under it. Or would something like that violate any building codes.

      I’ve built a small backyard fence for family that was to keep small dogs in, we dug a 6 inch trench in the line the fence was to go, then placed post and wired up the fencing. Once we had the fence up poured ready quik crete thru the trench and as far as I know nothing ever managed to dig under and that fence is still standing straight as can be. Not a bad idea and wasn’t extremely expensive at the time I did that one however if you were to pour a 16-30 inch trench worth of concrete various length it could become fairly costly

      Depends on where you live. Locally we can get strong winds and occasional tornados. Chain link let’s the air through, but you still have to design with the debris in mind. So schedule 40 posts set 3’ down in concrete.

      @mplsfarmer 3 роки тому

      I think they were trying to inform viewers that there are a couple of concrete options. The special fence post concrete that is poured into the hole around the post dry and then water is added is easier to work with-no premixing with water-but it is much more expensive. I think they mentioned this. They are doing an instructional video and wanted to show how to set posts with both types of concrete.
