Thank god someone finally put up a video of just the simple basic how to and no extra nonsense
Oh yes!! Fence Outlet are hands down THE BEST in Florida. Myself, sister, and mother have all gone with Fence Outlet after hours of comparing prices and quality. When they said they make their own vinyl, (which no other company that came out said) I was sold. Plus a lifetime warranty!! They were not the cheapest but my wife and I agreed on the Cadillac of Fences. It was an investment well spent. 0% interest for 12 months?? Where do I sign?? Lol. Just so happy with my new fence that I had to post this.
Good job, I use a post level with a fabric elastic to make it easier and quicker. You can pre dig all the holes if you just space it out evenly and double check your 8' or whatever marks.
I agree with Robb. There seems to be a lot of effort shoring the post up, but not a whole lot of effort of checking height for each post. It is visually noticeable. Also you can noticeably see different sized gaps between the slats.
It looks like the center post in the 16' long fence is either up a bit or, the last post has been set in the concrete too deep. Did you level the rails or just plumb the posts?
My eye is pretty good and I suspect it is not an optical delusion (illusion).
Just dry pack the posts, never had any issues.
Geez...that is a lot of work ! That fence is only 4 sections, my fence is about 45 sections.
Only thing I thought was a great idea was pour the concrete first, then put the post in. That way the inside of the post has concrete as well
This guy is playing like he’s a professional but clearly is missing some serious details! The bottom of the fence is extremely high from the ground. Nobody in their right mind would install a fence that high.
Can you leave a link to the other parts of this tutorial? Thx
Just open the bag and pour in post hole, don't mix it in a wheel barrow!
If posts were cut cement, can i somehow reuse the vinyl post that has wood in it?
I wish i could afford to put up any kind of cheap fence to block the view of my house as I don't even like seeing people driving by when i go to get the mail. I need about 50 yards
Do you have to use metal insers when installing these could anybody help me out with that would greatly appreciate it
Thank you
Don't mix so close to those post's. You're going to get crete all over the nice clean posts. You're crazy using the red bags. With the regular set, you have all day to adjust if you need to.
Looks to me like he had a liner in the hole or am I wrong.
Contrary to 'right on the money' and 'perfect' - Justin
I never understood how using these cardboard tube forms worked. When you put the tube into the hole you have a gap all the way around it. Now in the video it magically shows the guy just topping off filling in around the hole, how nice, why not show how the fill between the tube and the sides of the hole were filled? If you put dirt in around the tube, wouldn't that dirt need to be tamped to hell and back, risking crushing the tube? This method is the same as digging a hole, and burying a concrete cylinder,. Except if you were to bury a solid concrete cylinder you would have the advantage of really being able to tamp in around the concrete without risk of caving in a dumb tube.
In addition to your point there's NO need to bring the concrete to the surface.... leave it below grade 4 to 6 inches . Use backfill soil to help keep the post from moving whilst the concrete sets up...
Way to high of ground clearance. Anything could get under that fence.
Why no wooden post inside the vinyl fence post to secure at corners?
Because the vynl goes into the post 2". The only way to put something inside is 2" 3/8 metal pole . I'm putting a veranda fence together now. I have 72ft to put up. The first 3 post and 2 panels are up. So, now I will fill the center with dirt add water to sink the dirt. The rest of my poles will have concrete in center up to bottom of 1st hole for panels. Once concrete is set the vynl slat will have a screw in the top inside as close as possible to the inside wall to prevent wind from pulling it apart. Then fill the hole with diet for support
This guy can’t be a serious fence builder digging all those holes with a shovel
Definitely not a serious professional install
SO SMALL ANIMALS JUST WALK RIGHT UNDER THE BOTTOM RAIL??
Why would you need all that gravel at the bottom of the hole? For drainage? It is a waste to dig hole deeper just to throw more money in the hole. You are already below the frost line. This to me is a step to sell stupid bags of gravel, that is why the name brands are all exposed and viisable to read. If you feel the need for drainage and some areas may actually need it, not many. Just place some of the rocks you dug out of the hole back in there, why in the hell would you buy gravel then try to find a place to dispose the rocks that came from the hole. These videos do have great ideas but the plan is mostly to sell merchandise.
Hahaha. This is a parody, right?
The fence isn’t even level this guy doesn’t know how to install 💀
Lmao no no that is so 1920. All that is not needed.
