Installation Instructions

Fig. 12
Wrap tension wire once around bottom
brace band carriage bolt. Using pliers,
twist wire around itself to secure (Fig.12).
Tension wire should run along the same
side of the posts as the fabric. After fabric
is installed apply tension wire clips (hog
rings) no more than 24 in. apart, or as
needed for securing the wire to the
chain-link fabric, after it is applied.

Step 1
Starting at a terminal post, unroll chain-link
fabric on the ground along the outside of the
fence line to the next terminal post. Slide a
tension bar through the first row of chain
link diamonds. Fasten evenly spaced
tension bands (already on the post) to the
tension bar/fabric combination using 5/16
in. x 1-1/4 in. carriage bolts with heads to
the outside of the fence (Fig. 13 & 14).

Step 2
Stand fabric up against the fence frame. Loosely
attach fabric to top rail with a few fence ties to hold
it in place. Take out the slack as you go.
To separate chain-link fabric:
Remove the excess fabric with pliers by opening the
top and bottom loops (knuckles) of a single strand of
wire at the desired point of separation. Unwind the
strand up through the links until the fabric comes
apart (Fig. 15 & 16).
To splice sections of chain-link fabric together.
Use a single strand of wire. Remove it from the
end of the fabric. Join two sections by winding a
loose strand down, corkscrew style, through the
end links. Join and tighten the knuckles at top
and bottom to secure
Note: Before a section can be spliced, a second
strand may have to be removed to provide proper
mesh alignment.
