Chain Link Fence Fabric
How deep do I install my terminal posts
and line posts in the ground?
How deep you install your terminal and line posts
depends on the height of your chain link fabric.
The height of the terminal posts, above ground, will
equal the height of the chain link fabric plus 2". The
height of the line posts, above ground, will equal the
height of the fabric less 2". The height will deter-
mine how deep your post will be set in the ground.
You will need to check with your local village or city
fence installation regulations to determine how deep
the post must be set below the frost line.
The process does not need to change, as long as the process is one that incorporates cement for terminal and
line posts. Holes for terminal posts are typically dug 8" in diameter and 18"- 30" deep; 6" in diameter and
18"-24" deep for line posts. For softer soils, use the deeper depth recommendations. Make sure all posts are
vertical, centered in the hole, and secured with cement.
With pliers, open the top and bottom ends of wire where you wish to terminate or remove
fabric. Unwind the strand and twist through the links until the wire comes out of the fabric,
in a corkscrew manner.
From an end of the fabric, remove a strand of wire. Join the two sections together and
wind the removed wire down through the ends, in a corkscrew manner.
Note: a second strand of wire may have to be removed in order to mesh properly.
Does the installation process change depending on what type of dirt I put my post in?
What if I do not need the entire footage of the chain link fabric?
Can you add or splice fabric together to make it longer?
