Post hole spacing is 71-5/8 in. post-center to post-center for the 4x6
and 6x6 panels and 95-5/8 in. post-center to post-center for the 5x8
and 6x8 panels (fig. 1). Mark post hole locations along string line.
Double check all measurements. Check local regulations for any
special requirements for post hole depth. The fence will be stronger if
the end, corner and gate posts are set at least 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. 2). 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 instruc-
tions on the bag. Mix thoroughly and install the post into the hole and
tap the post to the proper depth. We recommend 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).
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.
Step 3Preparation
Digging postholes
• 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 • Line posts
