Installation
We recommend installing 1 post and section at a time but other methods work too. Alter this method
to suit your installation needs.
Prior to construction, check with your regulatory agency for special code requirements in your area.
Contact your utility supplier to locate and mark underground lines before excavation.
Sketch out the layout of your fence and calculate the number of panels, gates and posts required (to
nish a fence run, one extra post kit is needed).
Careful planning and measuring of your fence is essential. Keep in mind that moving posts after the
concrete sets is extremely dicult.
Important Reminders:
3
Fast2k Tip! Wherever concrete is used in installation, use Fast2K instead to simplify the process.
Fast2K is a concrete alternative that is much easier to use and set.
2. Dig your second hole 96” on center to your rst hole, your third hole 96” on center to your second
hole, and so on. Be sure to dig only 3-4 holes at a time to ensure proper spacing.
1. String your fence line and begin by digging your rst post hole: 10” wide x 32”-36” deep.
Fast2K Tip! For Fast2k install, dig hole 6”wide x 32” deep.

Fast2K Tip! Add one 12.4 oz. bag to the hole. Hold post in place to prevent movement and follow
mixing instructions on the bag. Pour around post and plumb during expansion.
2. To set posts in concrete, hold post in place and prevent movement to ensure the post stays straight.
Be prepared to use a minimum of (2) 60lb. bags of concrete for each post hole.

Installation

Under some conditions, panels may be reduced in length. If this applies, be sure to cut the top and
bottom rails the same length to ensure proper picket alignment. When eliminating pickets from a
scalloped” panel, remember that you will have to insert the pickets in such a way that it resembles the
scallop, or slope of the original panel.
PANEL ADJUSTMENTS:
This fence panel can rack up to 9” over
an 8ft. span. If more material is needed,
please call 1-888-743-3673.
1. Insert top rail into the opposite post.
2. Straighten and level next post.
3. Pour in mixed concrete.
4. Insert post hole covers into unused
holes of rst post. Repeat steps down
the line.
5. Insert (and glue) picket caps into pickets
by putting a small strip of glue inside
the picket, NOT on picket cap. Repeat
down the line.
