Instructions / Assembly

NOTES
ALWAYS screw in both top and bottom screws in each fence-board before fastening
the next fence board. following this instruction will eliminate any sag in the
stringer.
2 top, 2 bottom, 2 top, 2, bottom... and so on, for each board.
TIPS
IMPORTANT: DO NOT SCREW IN ALL OF THE TOPS OF THE FENCE BOARDS AND THEN ALL
OF THE BOTTOMS OF THE FENCE BOARDS !
This will create a SAG in the Fence section.
Screw the top of one board in and then the bottom of that same board in, then on to the
next board, and so on.
Another tip to prevent any section sagging if the fence section is to slip the centre board in
the section through the centre hole in both top and bottom stringers and let it touch the
ground. Then slightly push up on the top stringer creating a slight bow and then fasten the
board to the stringer. Do the same for the bottom stringer by pulling up on the bottom
stringer while screwing in the wood screws through the stringer holes into the board. Then
complete the rest of the fence section as normal ie. 2 top, 2 bottom, 2 top, 2 bottom etc.
After all other fence boards have been fastened to the stringer, remove the screws from the
first centre "stabilizing" fence board and insert it as you normally would and fasten it to the
stringers.
The result should be a fence section with a slight upward bow to withstand any extra weight
or action that this section may be exposed to.
Repeat this same procedure for all fence sections until the last post and then use End
Brackets for the last post just as you did for the first post.
Gates can be added anywhere in the TAHOE Slip Fence provided the gate hardware can
fasten to a 3” Square Aluminum Fencepost typically via Aluminum Self Tapping screws, and
Check the TAHOE Slipfence website for updates on gates.
