Installation & Assembly

Post Location:
Measure the width of the fence panel (X) plus the
width of the post (Y). This is the common center-
to-center measurement (unless there is a cut-down
panel) for post hole location (Fig. 4).
Post Installation:
Dig first two post holes 6" in diameter and down
to your specified frost line. Insert filler/gravel into
the bottom of both holes and then set first post in
post hole.
Add wet or dry concrete mix according to the
manufacturer’s instruction to the top of the hole for
first post only and level it.
Example: When your frost line is 36" insert 12"
of gravel/ filler and 24" of post with concrete
surrounding (Fig. 5).
Gate Installation:
The opening between the posts should be
11⁄2” wider than the gate width to allow for
hinges. (Example: Use a 48" opening for a
46 1⁄2” wide gate.) Be sure posts are level and
plumb.
