| Installation guide for all fencing | ||
| Our fencing has been designed and tested to ensure easy installation. Both types of fencing are ideal for hard clay or soft ground and when installed are extremely strong. Installing our fencing does not require welding or any other specialised tools. All posts are simply hammered into the ground one meter apart and the rails tightened every five meters using the 8mm grub screw provided. | ||

Step 1. Once you have determined the line across the land you wish your fencing to follow, a start post is used to initiate the fence. This as with all posts should be knocked into the ground so that the thrust plate is approximately one inch below ground level. When installing start posts, the tubes on the post must face the direction your fence will follow. Step 2. Next is to install the middle posts. These are placed every meter (1000mm) after the start post. Normally after a start post, four middle posts will be installed and the fifth a support post. Step 3. Finally after installing four middle posts you can start inserting the railings. All railings are supplied at 5200mm in length and once inserted should overhang your last middle post by approximately 150mm (does not need to be precise). You can then install another four middle posts at this point. Once installed you can then insert your next set of railings. Depending upon your choice of fence you will be supplied with either round sockets or 8mm nuts, bolts and washers. Where flat bar rails are concerned each flat bar slides over the previous rail so that the pre manufactured slots are in line and can be bolted together. Where round bars are used, each rail will simply be joined using the appropriate socket and tightened into place using the 8mm grub screws provided. (see Connecting drawing above for details). Step 4. Your last post installed should be a finish post. This again should be installed with the pre-welded tubes facing towards the fence (in the case backwards). Again tighten the rails in place once they have been slid through the tubes. Enjoy your fence Once completely installed coat your fence in a colour of your choice of leave as delivered.
