Building a 4 board fence for a driveway entrance

  • On todays video we are finishing up our fence near the driveway. We bought 1” x 6”x 16’ pressure treated corral boards and spaced them 6” apart in height. Our gate opening is just over 18’ wide, and the board sections are around 21’ long. We are planning to add a large wood entry gate structure using old telephone poles which will be featured in a later video.

    Country living at its finest. We just bought a little homestead in TX in a ranching community. It's on about 1.5 acres, new build and we're looking to put in a gate. This is perfect. Love all the little helpers. I've got two myself and they love to help me as well. Great video.

      Awesome! That’s one of our older videos, our farm has progressed greatly since that time. It’s always a work in progress for sure. Thanks for watching!

    Very cool. This is the lifestyle I would like to have in my country. This is the reason why I worked so hard here in the USA, to be able to give a better quality of life to my family. And what I liked most was the whole family helping to build! Congratulations on the work you have done.

    Hey nice video are those 2x6s? ? I’d like to build this set up but with 4x4 or 6x6 posts instead of the round posts that come to a V and put a 16’ cattle gate on it

    looks real nice , What is your spacing on your posts leading up to your gate ?

      If I remember correctly I did a board width space between each board, so almost 6 inches.

      Thanks! The fence is roughly 4 feet tall, the boards are about 5 1/2 inches wide, and I used a cut piece of board as a spacer in between.

    It looks like you just filled around the posts with the dirt you took out. Did you use concrete or anything? Love the videos by the way and how well your kids help out and get along with each other.

    • @MaynardFamilyHomestead
      @MaynardFamilyHomestead  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks! Yes sir, we have a lot of clay in our soil so it packs around the posts pretty tight. Since it’s only boards we just used the dirt from out of the holes. I will use concrete on corner posts if I’m stretching wire or for hanging gates though.

    How many boards did it take to make this and the measurements for the boards please.

    • @MaynardFamilyHomestead
      @MaynardFamilyHomestead  Рік тому +1

      We used standard corral boards which are 6 inches. Each side is 24 feet so it’s one and a half boards long.

      I believe they we’re considered 4”-5” posts. 4x4 posts work perfectly too, and they have a nice flat surface to screw to.
