SETTING POSTS
STEP 1
Dig holes 8”-10” in diameter and anywhere from 24”, 30” or 36”
deep depending on your local weather and soil conditions.
STEP 2
Position the post in the hole. The post should be centered in the
hole and must be square with the fence line so that when the rails are
inserted into place they will parallel the string line. Check the post
on two adjacent sides with a carpenter’s level and adjust as necessary
to make sure it is plumb. The fence height above grade is also
determined at this time. We recommend 2” be left from the bottom
of the bottom rail to the ground.
STEP 3
Pour concrete around the posts and fill up to ground level. Wet or
dry concrete works fine. If using dry concrete water down around the
posts when you are ready for the concrete to start setting up. The
concrete will be set up in about 24 hours. Repeat this step until all
post are set and ready for panel assembly and gate install if needed.

PANEL ASSEMBLY - BOTTOM RAIL
STEP 1
Slide bottom rails into cutouts in the post. The notches on the
rails will lock the rail into the post. Repeat this step until all
bottom rails are installed. If post spacing is less than 93-1/2” on
center, cut a piece of bottom rail to achieve desired length. Any
power saw works well to cut these rails. You can purchase a
notching tool to re-notch the rail or in most cases you can put a
screw into the cut rail to hold it in place.
