Check local ordinances and regulations before building your
fence. Before construction, contact your local utility companies
to mark any underground cables and pipelines. In addition, it is
a good idea to discuss plans with any neighbors along your
proposed fence line.
Design and layout
• Determine the number of posts, panels and gates needed to
complete the job based on the total linear footage. Take into
consideration post, panel and gate widths when determining
the total number of each.
• Adjust layout to accommodate as many full panels as possible.
If you must use a partial panel, place it in the farthest rear
corner of the property.
• Locate property boundaries and drive stakes into the ground
at corners and ends of fence line, based on local municipality
regulations.
• Stretch twine or heavy string between stakes and pull tight
to mark layout of fence line.
• Be sure to measure your fence panels and gates prior to
determining the location of the postholes. Place posts in the
following order along string line:
• End/corner posts • Gate posts
• Screwdriver • Gravel
• Level • Shims
• Chop saw • Pencil
• Safety glasses
• String line
• Gloves
• Concrete

A general rule of thumb is to place 1/3 of the post into the ground.
Check local regulations for any special requirements. The fence
will be stronger if the end, corner and gate posts are set at least
3.5x8AlexScallop.ai
6" deeper than the line posts. Using a posthole digger or power
auger, dig the holes 10-12" wide and 6" deeper than needed.
Backfill the holes with 6" of gravel to drain water away from the
bottom of the posts (fig. 1). Keep the height of your fence panels
in mind when digging your postholes.
Starting in the corner, mix concrete in the first hole per the
instructions on the bag. Mix thoroughly and install the post into
the hole and tap the post to
the proper depth. We rec-
ommend a 2" gap from the
ground to the bottom of the
panel. Use a level to ensure
the fence post is plumb
and the post is square with
the ground. Brace the post
with temporary supports as
the concrete sets (per the
instructions).
