Mark the fence location using string and line
stakes (Fig. 1).
NOTE:
Plan gate placement, opening and hardware
clearance before installing fencing.
a. Dig the rst two post holes. Hole size should
be dug based on the following determination:
Depth is determined by your local frost line
measurements plus 6" for gravel/ ller (Fig. 2).
Width is determined by the post size.
See chart below for measurements.
Diameters based on post size:
10" for 5" x 5" post
8" for 4" x 4" post
b. Insert 6" of gravel/ ller into the bottom of
both holes and then set the rst post into the
ground and level it.
c. Add wet or dry concrete mix according to
manufacturer's instructions to the top of
the rst post hole only and assure your post
remains level (Fig. 3).
